In life, there is often the situation: eat the same watermelon, some people how to eat all right, while some people eat a little diarrhea; the same exercise, some people are refreshed, some people are exhausted; the same stay up late, some people the next day the spirit of the same, some people yawn …… these situations are because each person’s The body is different. What exactly is the “constitution” that Chinese medicine refers to? What is the impact of the body constitution on health and wellness? Identifying your own constitution is the first step in health care. If you choose a method that suits your constitution, you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort in health care. Identify the physique to treat the “un” disease “Physique refers to the body’s innate and acquired based on the morphological structure, physiological function and psychological state of the body formed on the basis of a comprehensive, relatively stable inherent physical traits.” According to the physical qualities of different people, integrated with the comprehensive factors of human morphological structure, physiological function and psychological characteristics, modern Chinese medicine classifies human physique into 9 basic types of physique. These are: pinghe, qi-vacant, yang-vacant, yin-vacant, phlegm-damp, damp-heat, blood stasis, qi-yu, and special endowment. Different body types are associated with different diseases. Among these 9 types of constitution, except for the “peaceful” constitution which is called “the source of health”, the other 8 types of constitution are called “the cause of all diseases” in Chinese medicine. Both the treatment and prevention of diseases are based on the identification of body types. By studying the relationship between different types of constitution and diseases, TCM starts with improving the constitution. The corresponding treatment measures are taken for the physical characteristics of different people. At the same time, prevention is carried out in combination with the physique, and the body’s functional state is adjusted by “improving the balance of a biased physique”, thus realizing the function of Chinese medicine to “treat the disease before it occurs”. There are so many different types of constitution in TCM, how to identify your own constitution? If you are unable to identify your own body type, it is best to ask an experienced TCM practitioner to do a TCM physical examination for you. Unlike Western medical checkups, TCM checkups are not based on quantitative criteria, but on a comprehensive judgment of the subject through observation, smell, questioning and cutting according to traditional Chinese medical diagnostic theory. The TCM physical examination begins with the observation of the subject’s appearance, color and form, followed by the examination of the tongue, tongue moss and pulse of the hand, followed by a detailed questioning of the subject’s daily life for a physical analysis. Finally, based on the results of the physical typing, the patient’s daily life, diet, emotions and living conditions will be properly guided. According to the preliminary physical examination data, the current physical constitution of Shenzhen men is more “damp-heat”, while women are more “Yang deficiency”. This is because men drink and smoke more, while women lack exercise and more in the air-conditioned room. The body needs to regulate the body to identify the medicine “many people just about know their own physique on the random use of tonic, which will only be the worse.” Some people judge that they are qi deficiency body according to some symptoms, they take six flavor Dihuang pill. However, they don’t know that Liu Wei Di Huang Wan is only suitable for Yin deficiency body, for Yang deficiency or Qi deficiency people, will eat more and more deficiency. Therefore, the regulation and change of the body constitution in Chinese medicine requires the identification of the body and the prescription of medicine. According to the individual physique with different ways and means, or cream or fumigation or acupuncture, only under the guidance of professional Chinese medicine practitioners, do not blindly self-supplementation. In addition to this, the type of human physique will change with the environment, living habits, Chinese medicine conditioning, etc.. Like Western medical checkups, TCM checkups are not a one-time checkup, but a regular checkup so that you can target your health care and take the right tonic.
