The 3 acupuncture points are often pressed to nourish a good spleen and stomach

Summer is the time when the spleen and stomach are at their most vulnerable. The strength of a person's spleen and stomach function is directly related to the prosperity and decline of his life. People with weak spleen and stomach have weak speech, weak bodies, and many diseases.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the body's qi and blood are transformed from food by the spleen and stomach.

If the spleen and stomach function normally, the human body can always be replenished with nutrients and obtain a steady stream of vitality;

If the spleen and stomach are damaged and the body is out of shape, if this is the case for a long time, there may be a haggard appearance and a deficiency of qi and blood.

1. Poor diet

In summer, many people like to eat cold drinks, raw and cold food will not only irritate the gastric mucosa, resulting in gastric nerve disorders, but also increase the digestive burden of the spleen and stomach.

2. Emotional discomfort

"The stomach is a barometer of emotions", and Chinese medicine believes that uncomfortable liver qi can damage the spleen and stomach. Bad mood will cause gastrointestinal disorders, anger and tension will increase the secretion of gastric acid, leading to indigestion in the human body.

We often see that those who are easily angry and emotionally sensitive often have problems such as loss of appetite, stomach fullness, and body weight loss when they are in a bad mood.
