How to replenish kidney yin deficiency?

The phenomenon of kidney yin deficiency requires attention to correct conditioning, and if you want to effectively regulate and improve it, you should first pay attention to maintaining a good and optimistic mood. Because people with yin deficiency are prone to anger, you must control your emotions, maintain a good lifestyle, and eat more yin-nourishing and moistening foods.

1. Go to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for dialectical diagnosis

If you feel that you have been experiencing symptoms such as hot flashes in the five parts of your body, liking cold drinks, night sweats, and weakness in the waist and knees in recent times, you feel that these are symptoms of Yin deficiency, but it is still recommended that you go to a Chinese medicine hospital to see a doctor to confirm whether it is Yin deficiency, or both Yin and Yang deficiency, and then adjust your medication or lifestyle according to the doctor's advice.

2. Stay optimistic and reduce anger

People with Yin deficiency are prone to liver fire, so they are easily upset, angry, and furious. Although it is caused by physical discomfort, they should also try to soothe their emotions, listen to soothing music, watch light comedies, go to places with fewer people and good environments, and stay away from noisy public places, which will help relieve irritability. If you encounter troubles at work or at home, you should choose to talk about them, do not get angry, and maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, which will be very helpful in alleviating the symptoms of Yin deficiency.

3. Have a regular daily routine and go to bed early and get up early

If you have a Yin deficiency constitution, you must set a daily routine for yourself, go to bed early and get up early as possible. After doing this for a period of time, you will feel that the symptoms of Yin deficiency will be improved. Because going to bed before 11pm is very important for nourishing Yin Qi and liver blood. If you often go to bed late, you will deplete Yin Qi, cause liver fire, and aggravate the symptoms of Yin deficiency. Going to bed early may feel difficult at first, but once it becomes a habit, you’ll feel better both emotionally and physically.

4. Eat more foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness

People with Yin deficiency should pay special attention to their daily diet and eat more foods that have the effect of nourishing Yin and moistening dryness. For example, in terms of protein, they should choose more duck meat, pork, sea cucumber, eggs, seafood, dairy products, soy products, etc. Do not eat lamb, beef and other hot foods; in terms of vegetables and fruits, eat more pears, lotus roots, lilies, lotus seeds, fungus, white fungus, bananas, dragon fruit, bitter melon, etc. Be sure to stay away from spicy and irritating foods, and quit smoking, drinking alcohol, and strong tea.
