Continuing to take such drugs, body cold will be aggravated. Covetous air-conditioned room The hot summer is the season of sweating a lot, summer heat will lead to a decline in the basal metabolic rate and difficult to produce heat. In addition, with the development and popularization of technology in modern society, you can enjoy the cold air conditioning wherever you go.

Thick blood In Chinese medicine, the lack of blood circulation will lead to “blood stasis”, and blood stasis refers to the state of blood viscosity. Thick blood is caused by changes in the amount of components in the blood. Since the blood is responsible for transporting waste and toxins in the body, over time and as the amount of waste and toxins transported increases, the blood accumulates some waste and toxins, causing the blood to thicken. Excessive menstrual bleeding is also a cause of sticky blood. Excessive menstrual bleeding causes anemia, which results in a serious loss of iron in the blood, and a lack of iron causes the red blood cells to be unable to work properly, oxygen and nutrients cannot be transported in time, and cellular metabolism is also hindered. The consequence of sticky blood is that the blood circulation slows down, the metabolism of energy deteriorates, and ultimately the body temperature is lowered.
