How to regulate a man with insufficient yang energy

Insufficient yang energy in men can be improved through diet regulation, exercise, work and rest adjustment, traditional Chinese medicine regulation, and acupoint health care. Insufficient yang qi is mostly caused by factors such as kidney yang deficiency, spleen and stomach weakness, overwork, sedentary life, poor mood and other factors.

1. Diet conditioning:

Appropriate consumption of foods that warm and nourish yang energy can help improve symptoms. Mutton has the effect of warming and nourishing kidney yang, and can be paired with angelica and ginger stew. ； Leeks contain sulfur compounds that can promote blood circulation. It is recommended to fry them with eggs. ； Walnut kernels are rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Eating 20 grams a day can warm and replenish the fire of life. Avoid raw and cold foods such as ice cream, bitter melon, etc. to avoid damaging spleen yang.

2. Exercise:

Choosing gentle Yang-rising exercises can effectively improve Yang Qi deficiency. The "Two Hands Supporting the Three Burners of Heaven" in Baduanjin can stimulate the movement of Yang Qi ； Walking briskly for 30 minutes every day can promote blood circulation ； Squat exercise can enhance kidney qi function by exercising the lower limb muscle groups. The intensity of exercise should be such that you sweat slightly to avoid sweating profusely, which may deplete your yang energy.

3. Work and rest adjustments:

Regular work and rest are crucial to maintaining Yang Qi. It is recommended to go to bed before 11 o'clock in the evening. At this time, the triple burner meridian is in time, which is conducive to the hiding of yang energy. ； Appropriate exposure to the sun from 7 to 9 o'clock in the morning can replenish the human body's yang energy. ； Taking a 20-minute nap at noon can prevent excessive consumption of heart yang. Avoid staying up late for work or excessive entertainment for a long time. Yang energy needs to be absorbed and cultivated at night.

4. Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning:

People with kidney yang deficiency may consider using Jingui Shenqi Pills to warm and replenish kidney yang under the guidance of a doctor. This prescription contains aconite, cinnamon and other yang-warming drugs.； People with spleen yang deficiency are suitable to take Lizhong Pills, which contain spleen-strengthening and warming herbs such as dried ginger and atractylodes. ； People with soreness and weakness in the waist and knees can take Yougui Pills. Chinese medicine conditioning requires syndrome differentiation and treatment, and self-medication should be avoided.

5. Acupoint health care:

Daily massage of specific acupoints can help increase Yang Qi. Guanyuan point is located three inches below the navel. Daily moxibustion for 10 minutes can warm and nourish the lower burner. ； Zusanli point is three inches below the outer knee. Regular pressure can strengthen the spleen and stomach Yang Qi. ； The Shenshu point is 1.5 inches away from the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra. Rubbing this point with your hands can warm and nourish kidney yang. Acupoint stimulation should be done gradually to avoid over-stimulation.

To regulate insufficient yang energy, you need to establish a healthy lifestyle system. In addition to the above methods, it is recommended to maintain a comfortable mood to avoid stagnation of liver qi, pay attention to keeping the waist and abdomen warm when wearing clothes, and wear waist protectors in winter. You can appropriately add yam, wolfberry, black sesame and other tonic ingredients to your diet to avoid over-reliance on spicy and stimulating foods. In terms of exercise, we recommend traditional health-preserving exercises such as Tai Chi and Zhanzhuang. Dry sweat promptly after exercise to prevent catching cold. If obvious symptoms such as persistent fear of cold, cold limbs, and decreased sexual function occur, you should go to a traditional Chinese medicine department in time to check for organic diseases. On a daily basis, you can develop the habit of soaking your feet in hot water before going to bed. You can add mugwort leaves, ginger and other warming meridians to the water. The water level should not exceed the Sanyinjiao point.
