Puffy eyelids: Even if you didn’t drink much water before going to bed, your eyelids are still swollen in the morning? You may have a fluid imbalance! There are many reasons for water metabolism imbalance, if in addition to puffy eyelids, you also feel weakness in the lower body and dry mouth, it may be your kidneys are “playing tricks”. Healthy kidneys can smoothly excrete excess water from the body, when water is not enough, it will slow down the metabolic rate, the water hoarded in the body, thus causing mild puffiness. Don’t worry, quickly drink a few glasses of water, you will soon be able to restore a pair of electric eyes!
Dark circles: Wake up early in the morning and find dullness around the eyes, dark circles under the eyes. Beware! This may be the result of too much waste deposited in the blood. The skin of the lower eyelid is thinner than the rest of the body and most likely to reflect the color of the blood. Think about whether you’ve been feeling stressed or overworked lately? Kidney dysfunction, which governs the urinary and reproductive organs, can also make the eye area dull. Less late nights and more whole grains are the best way to eliminate dark circles under the eyes!
Red Blood: Visible congestion in the eyes may be caused by poor blood circulation. Don’t be too busy with eye drops, move your head, neck and shoulders to unblock blood flow to the upper limbs, then get a good night’s sleep to give your eyes a good rest. You can apply some vitamin C lotion to the back of your neck and shoulders, vitamin C helps to unblock blood circulation and the redness will soon be reduced.
Fat particles: Estheticians often recommend using some kind of oil-free eye cream to deal with fat particles under the eyes. However, medical experts believe that fat particles are a warning sign of high cholesterol in the body. Cut out fried foods and animal offal from your recipes and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and the annoying little particles will soon be gone!
Needle eyes: Don’t take long needle eyes lightly! Japanese medical experts have found that a long needle eye indicates that your immune system is declining and that bacteria can easily enter your eye from the root of your eyelashes, causing inflammation. If you repeatedly get needle eyes, it’s best to go to the hospital for a comprehensive health checkup. You should drink a lot of tonics and improve your immune system in order to “break up” with the needle eyes.
The whites of the eyes are yellow: If the whites of the eyes are not very clear, it may be a problem with the liver and bile. Bile is a yellow-green liquid, which is secreted from the liver cells and stored in the gallbladder. When the gallbladder or liver is out of order, bile will flow into the bloodstream and make the whites of the eyes yellow. The good thing is that bile can break down excess body fat, with adequate bile, no need to worry about weight in the short term!
Lips are too white: the lips, like the lower eyelids, belong to the mucous membrane, and the epidermis is very thin, so it can fully reflect the color of the blood, which is the reason why the lips are red. If your lips become lighter in color, you may have insufficient blood red blood cells. It is recommended to change the recipe and eat more animal liver and tofu, thus reducing the symptoms of anemia.
Lips too red: There is a limit to how red your lips can be! If your lips are too bright red, don’t be too busy cheering, it may be that you are being plagued by the “heat” represented by the red color. In Chinese medicine, heat is divided into “real heat” and “deficiency heat”, which is caused by a decrease in body water. When the body temperature rises, the body’s regulatory function is weakened, the cheeks and lips and tongue will only become locally red. Eating more fresh fruit and drinking plenty of water can help you dissolve excess heat in your body and restore your lip color to normal.
Ruptured corners of the mouth: If you feel tingling or even redness and rupture in the corners of your mouth, it is likely to be a warning of early gastritis. When the mucous membrane of the stomach lining is in a state of fatigue, it can trigger internal heat, leading 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 a few more times when eating to give the stomach time to fully absorb and digest the food. The redness and swelling at the corners of the mouth will soon disappear when the temperature of the stomach wall is lowered.
Dry lips: Although lips are mucous membranes, the biggest difference with skin is that there are no sweat glands. Trying to make the lips secrete sweat and regulate body temperature is an absolutely “impossible task”. The lips are also unable to secrete oil and preserve water, and need to be moisturized by mucus from the mouth. When the mucus is insufficient, the lips tend to become dry, and resistance will be weakened, so bacteria and viruses will take the opportunity to invade. In addition to drinking more water to keep the oral mucus sufficient, it is recommended to gargle more with light salt water, because salt is a major driving force to promote the generation of oral mucus.
”Breath” big: a big breath in the mirror, if you smell heavy “breath”, you should pay attention! More than 60% of “bad breath” caused by dental disease. When bacteria invade the gap between the roots of the teeth and gums, reproduction will lead to gingivitis, giving birth to nasty “breath”. In addition, if your mouth is not thoroughly cleaned, the tartar formed by food debris will also make you exhale an unpleasant smell. It is recommended to clean your teeth thoroughly.
Drooling: When you wake up in the morning, is there always saliva hanging from the corner of your mouth? Drooling is caused by excessive saliva secretion, probably because your gastrointestinal function is weak and cannot fully absorb water, causing water retention and dilution of saliva, thus it flows to your mouth. If you also feel intestinal and stomach rumbling, it is best to see a gastroenterologist.
Tongue twitching: Spitting out your tongue in the mirror, if it twitches slightly, it is likely a sign of mental stress and physical decline. In a research study, it was found that more than 70% of people do not realize the tremor at the initial stage, and by the time it is discovered, 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 reasonably, otherwise you will soon face the danger of neurasthenia!
Purple tongue: When the blood contains a lot of waste and the water supply in the body is insufficient, the oxygen-deficient blood and oxygenated blood will mix together, making the blood vessels turn purple. If, in addition to a purple tongue, you also feel stiff shoulders and back pain, it only means that too many toxins have been deposited in your body! Why not stick to a light diet for a week, do sauna and keep regular, light aerobic exercise, the toxins will soon be discharged.
The tongue moss is too thin: the tongue moss is not known to fall off, the surface color of the tongue is uneven, the medical term for this is “map tongue”. Allergic people are most likely to have this condition, especially in the spring and autumn are more common. The appearance of the “map tongue” indicates that your resistance is declining, and it is recommended that you stay away from pollen, seafood, small insects and other allergens during this time to avoid being “trapped”.
Too thick tongue: Tongue moss on the tongue is like tofu crumbs that can be easily scraped away, probably because of poor gastrointestinal function or over-eating. If you have such tongue moss all the time, it is best to go to the gastroenterology department and let the doctor help you lower the stomach fire.
Yellow tongue: yellow tongue is likely to be a sign of cold virus invasion! Be sure to pay attention to warmth, eat more warm food such as pumpkin and beef, and brew a cup of hot milk before going to bed at night, it can form a protein film in the stomach to prevent bacterial invasion.
Black tongue: A vaguely black tongue is most likely due to an elevated body temperature! An elevated body temperature doesn’t necessarily mean a fever, but strenuous exercise and anger can make the tongue black. Take a hot bath and do some soothing exercises to effectively lower your body temperature.
Nose size: The size of the nose has a lot to do with breathing conditions! The nose is wider, the bridge of the nose is high, indicating that your respiratory organs are well-developed, physiological structure is good, can breathe a sufficient amount of air; but in a heavily polluted place, you will also inhale too much exhaust gas. If the nose is petite, indicating that your respiratory function is weak, impermeable places will make you short of breath and chest tightness. After 1-2 hours in the office, you should go to the hallway or window to breathe fresh air for 5 minutes to prevent sudden lack of oxygen.
Nose agitation: Nose agitation during normal breathing may be caused by too low lung capacity! Don’t take it lightly, low lung capacity will affect your normal metabolic function. Practice 5 minutes of abdominal breathing every day – inhalation up belly, exhale tight belly, soon your lung capacity can improve a lot!
Nose pimples: When pimples appear on the nose, it is most likely a problem with the digestive system. Eat more bananas, sweet potatoes and other foods to keep the digestive tract open, you can avoid indigestion.
Red nose: Sudden redness at the tip of your nose? Your liver is overloaded! When you drink too much alcohol, the body stays blood in the liver in order to break down the alcohol, thus causing the blood vessels to expand, which gives you a red nose, so it is very important to control the amount of alcohol you drink.
Sometimes nosebleeds: People with weakened intestines and stomachs are unable to absorb sufficient nutrients, and their muscles and vascular tissues are fragile and easily ruptured by the slightest collision. Energy consumption is high in winter, and if the diet is not regulated, the body’s caloric supply is insufficient, which can lead to occasional nosebleeds.
Nasal congestion: a non-ventilated nose can dull brain activity. If the nasal congestion is caused by allergic rhinitis, in addition to the possible difficulty in breathing, it will also make the brain insufficient oxygen supply. Nasal congestion indicates the fragile function of the mucous membrane of your respiratory tract, which is mostly related to poor gastrointestinal function, do not just focus on the smooth “nose problem”, maintenance of the intestinal tract is also as important!
Red cheeks: I don’t know when, cheeks creeping two inexplicable “plateau red”, this may be the Western medicine called “unexplained slight heat”, the main reason is excessive physical exertion, body moisture imbalance. If you have excessive sweating and shortness of breath in addition to red cheeks, it may be due to blood flow disorders caused by hyperthermia. A nice hot bath, two fever-reducing pills, and a good night’s sleep will soon provide relief and return your face to normal.
Pale cheeks: Anemia is manifested by 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 can cause skin function to decline and reduce the function of melanin production, which also tends to cause pale cheeks. In addition to supplementation, it is recommended that you do more aerobic exercises such as jogging, walking and swimming so as to ensure adequate oxygen supply.
Wrinkles on cheekbones: Suddenly you find a few more fine lines on the skin at your cheekbones! It may be due to abnormal liver function. If the liver function is unable to purify the blood or supply it with enough oxygen, it can make the blood cloudy, abnormal blood circulation occurs, the body’s metabolic rate decreases, and skin sensitivity increases, which leads to the appearance of small wrinkles. German health experts point out that in addition to consulting a doctor and improving the metabolic level of liver function, sun exposure should be avoided because the skin at the cheekbones is thin and UV rays can also cause damage.
Acne on the sides of the cheeks: Hormonal imbalances can cause acne on the forehead and chin. If you have pimples on both sides of your cheeks, you should first consider whether it is due to incomplete cleaning. In addition, it may also be due to impatience, anxiety in life, and excessive stress at work. Why not take a self-guided trip to give your body and also your mood a vacation!
Large cheek pores: As we age, the body’s sebum production will gradually decrease, and the skin’s ability to moisturize begins to decline, and if the body lacks a specific vitamin at this time, the pores will be enlarged. The best solution is to consume adequate amounts of vitamin C. The collagen contained in it improves the skin’s moisturizing power, making it appear elastic and the pores shrink. Foods rich in vitamin C include apples, celery, bananas and kiwi.
Dark cheeks: If you notice a dark face, you have to consider if it is a kidney problem. The kidneys have a filtering function that regulates the level of water metabolism in the body. If, unfortunately, your kidneys have a reduced filtration function, it will cause waste products to accumulate in your body for a long time, causing your skin to appear dull black. The initial manifestation is pigmentation in the thinner areas of the skin, which will slowly spread in all directions. We suggest you try the popular Korean three-day fruit and vegetable detoxification method: drink plenty of water every day, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid meat, and the waste deposited in your body will soon be eliminated.
