Medical experts say that 70% of health problems are reflected on the face. Want to know about your physical condition? Just look at your face! 1. 6 secrets your eyes tell you 1. Dark circles: When you wake up in the morning, do you notice dark circles around your eyes? Be careful! This may be due to too much waste deposited in the blood. The skin of the lower eyelid is thinner than other parts and is most likely to reflect the color of blood. Have you ever felt too stressed or overly tired recently? Kidney dysfunction, which controls the urinary and reproductive organs, can also cause dark circles around the eyes. Australian medical experts say that staying up late less and eating more whole-grain foods are the best ways to eliminate dark circles! 2. Swollen eyelids: Even if you didn’t drink much water before going to bed, your eyelids are still swollen when you wake up in the morning? You may have fluid imbalance! There are many reasons for water metabolism imbalance. If in addition to swollen eyelids, you also feel weakness in the lower body and dry mouth, it may be that your kidneys are "playing tricks". Healthy kidneys can excrete excess water from the body smoothly. When there is insufficient water, they will slow down the metabolic rate and store water in the body, causing mild edema. Don't worry, drink a few glasses of water and you will soon have a pair of bright eyes again! 3. Fat particles: Beauticians often recommend using some kind of oil-free eye cream to deal with fat particles under the eyes. But medical experts believe that fat particles are a warning sign of high cholesterol in the body. Eliminate fried foods and animal offal from your diet, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and the annoying small particles will soon disappear! 4. Red bloodshot eyes: The eyes are obviously congested, which may be caused by poor blood circulation. Don't rush to put eye drops in your eyes. Move your head, neck and shoulders to clear the blood flow in your upper limbs. Then have a good sleep to give your eyes sufficient rest. You can apply some vitamin C lotion on the back of your neck and shoulders. Vitamin C helps clear blood circulation and the red blood streaks will soon be reduced. 5. Stye: Don’t take stye lightly! Japanese medical experts have found that stye indicates that your immunity is declining, and bacteria can easily enter the eyes from the roots of the eyelashes and cause inflammation. If you get styes repeatedly, it is best to go to the hospital for a comprehensive health check. Only by drinking Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang regularly to improve your immunity can you completely “break up” with stye pricks. 6. Yellowing of the whites of the eyes: If the whites of the eyes are not clear, there may be problems with the liver or gallbladder. Bile is a yellow-green liquid that is secreted from liver cells and stored in the gallbladder. When the gallbladder or liver is out of order, bile will flow into the blood and cause the whites of the eyes to turn yellow. Fortunately, bile can break down excess fat in the body. With sufficient bile, you don’t have to worry about your weight in the short term! 2. 6 codes your mouth tells you 1. Lips are too white: Lips, like lower eyelids, are mucous membranes with a very thin epidermis, so they can fully reflect the color of blood, which is why lips are red. If your lips become lighter in color, it may be due to a lack of red blood cells. It is recommended that you change your diet and eat more animal liver and tofu to alleviate the symptoms of anemia. 2. Lips are too red: There should be a limit to red lips and white teeth! If your lips are too red, don’t be too happy, because you may be suffering from the “heat syndrome” represented by red. Traditional Chinese medicine divides heat syndrome into "real heat" and "false heat". "False heat" is caused by a decrease in body water. When the body temperature rises and the body's regulatory function weakens, the cheeks, lips and tongue will turn red locally. Eating more fresh fruits and drinking plenty of water can help you eliminate excess calories in your body and restore your lip color to normal. 3. Cracks at the corners of the mouth: If you feel tingling at the corners of your mouth, or even redness, swelling, and cracks, it may be an early warning sign of gastritis. When the gastric wall mucosa is in a fatigued state, it will cause internal heat and lead to redness and swelling at the corners of the mouth. Don’t be afraid, 80% of early gastritis can be cured. It is recommended to chew more when eating to give the stomach some time to fully absorb and digest food. Once the temperature of the stomach wall drops, the redness and swelling at the corners of the mouth will soon disappear. 4. Dry lips: Although lips are mucous membranes, the biggest difference between them and skin is that they do not have sweat glands. It is absolutely an impossible task to make the lips secrete sweat and regulate body temperature. The lips are unable to secrete oil or retain moisture and need to be moisturized by mucus from the mouth. When there is insufficient mucus, the lips tend to become dry and the resistance will be weakened, giving bacteria and viruses the opportunity to invade. In addition to drinking plenty of water to keep the oral mucus sufficient, it is recommended to gargle with light salt water more often, because salt is a major driving force for the production of oral mucus. 5. Bad breath: Take a deep breath in front of the mirror. If you smell a strong breath, be careful! More than 60% of bad breath is caused by dental diseases. When bacteria invade the gap between the tooth root and the gums and multiply, they will cause gingivitis and produce unpleasant "bad breath". In addition, if your mouth is not cleaned thoroughly, the plaque formed by food residues will also make you exhale an unpleasant odor. A thorough teeth cleaning is recommended. 6. Drooling: Do you always have saliva at the corners of your mouth after waking up in the morning? Drooling is caused by excessive saliva secretion. It may be that your gastrointestinal function is weak and cannot fully absorb water, causing water retention and saliva to be diluted, so it flows to the mouth. If you still feel bowel and stomach rumbling, it is best to see a gastroenterologist. 3. 6 secret codes your tongue tells you 1. Tongue tremor: Stick out your tongue in front of a mirror. If your tongue trembles slightly, it may be a sign of mental tension or physical decline. Japanese medical experts found in a survey that more than 70% of people do not realize the vibration in the early stages, and by the time they discover it, it is often too late. It is recommended that you adjust your work and rest schedule as soon as possible, do not stay up late, and eat a healthy diet, otherwise you will soon face the risk of neurasthenia! 2. Purple tongue: When the blood contains a large amount of waste and the body is insufficiently supplied with water, the oxygen-deficient blood and oxygen-containing blood will mix together, causing the blood vessels to turn purple. If in addition to the purple tongue, you also feel stiff shoulders and back pain, it only means that there are too many toxins deposited in your body! You might as well stick to a light diet for a week, take a sauna, and maintain regular, light aerobic exercise, and the toxins will be excreted quickly. 3. The tongue coating is too thick: The tongue coating on the tongue can be easily scraped off like tofu dregs. It may be due to gastrointestinal dysfunction or overeating. If you have this kind of tongue coating all the time, it is best to go to the gastroenterology department and let the doctor help you reduce stomach fire. 4. The tongue coating is too thin: The tongue coating falls off for unknown reasons, and the surface of the tongue is uneven in color. This is medically called "geographic tongue." Korean medical experts pointed out that people with allergies are most likely to experience this condition, especially in spring and autumn. The appearance of "geographic tongue" indicates that your resistance is declining. It is recommended that you stay away from allergens such as pollen, seafood, small insects, etc. during this period to avoid being "infected". 5. Yellow tongue coating: Yellow tongue coating may be a signal of cold virus invasion! Be sure to keep warm, eat more warm foods such as pumpkin and beef, and drink a cup of hot milk before going to bed at night. It can form a layer of protein film in the stomach to prevent bacterial invasion. 6. Black tongue coating: A slightly black tongue coating is probably due to increased body temperature! Increased body temperature does not necessarily mean a fever. Vigorous exercise and anger can also cause the tongue coating to turn black. Taking a hot bath and doing some relaxing exercises can effectively lower your body temperature. 4. 6 secrets your nose tells you 1. Nose size: Nose size has a lot to do with breathing conditions! If your nose wings are wide and your nose bridge is high, it means that your respiratory organs are well-developed and your physiological structure is good, so you can breathe enough air; but in places with serious pollution, you will also inhale too much exhaust gas. If your nostrils are small, it means your respiratory function is weak and stuffy places will make you short of breath and feel chest tightness. After staying in the office for 1-2 hours, you should go to the corridor or window to breathe fresh air for 5 minutes to prevent sudden lack of oxygen. 2. Nasal flaring: Nasal flaring during normal breathing may be caused by low lung capacity! Don’t take it lightly, as low lung capacity will affect your normal metabolic function. Practice abdominal breathing for 5 minutes every day - expand your belly when you inhale, and tighten your belly when you exhale, and soon your lung capacity will increase a lot! 3. Acne on the tip of the nose: Acne on the tip of the nose is mostly caused by problems with the digestive system. Eat more foods such as bananas and sweet potatoes to keep the digestive tract unobstructed and avoid indigestion. 4. Red nose: The tip of your nose suddenly turns red? Your liver is overloaded! When you drink too much, your body retains blood in the liver in order to break down the alcohol, which causes blood vessels to dilate and gives you a red nose. Therefore, it is very important to control your drinking amount. 5. Sometimes nosebleeds: People with weak gastrointestinal tract cannot absorb enough nutrients, and their muscle and blood vessel tissues are very fragile and can easily rupture with a slight collision. Energy consumption is high in winter. If the diet is not balanced and the body's heat supply is insufficient, it will lead to occasional nosebleeds. 6. Nasal congestion: A blocked nasal cavity can slow down brain activity. If the nasal congestion is caused by allergic rhinitis, in addition to causing difficulty in breathing, it will also cause insufficient oxygen supply to the brain. A stuffy nose indicates that your respiratory mucosa is weak. Japanese medical experts believe that this is mostly related to poor gastrointestinal function. Don’t just focus on clearing your nose. It is equally important to maintain your intestines! 5. 6 secrets your cheeks can tell you 1. Red cheeks: Since I don’t know when, two inexplicable “highland reds” have appeared on my cheeks. This may be what Western medicine calls “unexplained low-grade fever”. The main reason is excessive physical exertion and water imbalance in the body. If, in addition to red cheeks, you also sweat excessively and often have shortness of breath, it may be due to blood flow obstruction caused by high fever. Take a comfortable hot bath, take two antipyretic tablets, and have a good night's sleep, and you will soon get relief and your complexion will return to normal. 2. Pale cheeks: Anemia manifests itself as pale lips, inner eyelids and cheeks, which is caused by insufficient supply of hemoglobin in the blood, which is responsible for oxygen transport. In addition, weak breathing will cause the skin's functions to decline, reduce the ability to produce melanin, and easily lead to pale cheeks. In addition to nutritional supplements, it is recommended that you do more aerobic exercises such as jogging, walking, swimming, etc. to ensure adequate oxygen supply. 3. Wrinkles on the cheekbones: Suddenly found a few fine lines on the skin at the cheekbones? It may be caused by abnormal liver function. If the liver function is unable to purify the blood or supply the blood with enough oxygen, the blood will become turbid, blood circulation will become abnormal, the body's metabolic rate will decrease, and skin sensitivity will increase, leading to the appearance of small wrinkles. German health experts point out that in addition to consulting a doctor and improving liver function and metabolism, you should also avoid sun exposure, because the skin on the cheekbones is thinner and ultraviolet rays can also cause damage. 4. Acne on both sides of the cheeks: Hormonal imbalance can cause acne on the forehead and chin. If you have acne on the sides of your cheeks, the first thing you should consider is whether it is due to incomplete cleaning. In addition, it may also be caused by impatience, anxiety in life, and excessive work pressure. Why not take a self-guided tour to give your body and mind a break! 5. Large pores on the cheeks: As we age, the body's sebum secretion gradually decreases and the skin's moisturizing ability begins to decline. If the body lacks certain vitamins at this time, the pores will become large. The best solution is to take enough vitamin C. The collagen contained in it can improve the skin's moisturizing ability, make the skin appear elastic, and shrink the pores. Foods rich in vitamin C include apples, celery, bananas and kiwis. 6. Dark cheeks: If you find that your face is dark, you should consider whether it is a kidney problem. The kidneys have a filtering function and can regulate the metabolic level of water in the body. If, unfortunately, your kidneys' filtering function is reduced, waste will accumulate in the body for a long time, making the skin appear dark. The initial symptom is the appearance of pigmentation in areas where the skin is thinner, which slowly spreads to the surrounding areas. I suggest you try the three-day fruit and vegetable detoxification method popular in Korea: drink plenty of water every day, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, avoid meat, and the waste deposited in your body will be excreted quickly. |
