The half-moon marks on your fingernails can reflect whether you are full of vital energy or not, and you can tell whether you are full of vital energy by looking at your fingernails. The nail is where the yin and yang meridians meet, so it is the “window” to observe the changes in the circulation of qi and blood in the body. Some people have more half-moon marks, some have less, and some don’t. What does that mean? A. What is the half-moon mark A white arc-shaped trace appears at the bottom fifth of the nail, which is the half-moon mark, also known as the small sun. The nail half-moon mark is the boundary between the yin and yang meridians, and is a representative of the body’s essence, so it is also called the circle of health. The development of the half-moon mark is affected by nutrition, environment and physical quality. When the digestion and absorption function is poor, the half-moon mark will be blurred, reduced or even disappear. The condition of the meniscus shows information about the health condition of the human body. Second, the role of the half-moon mark Chinese medicine health science says: claw is the tendon of the Hua, blood of the remainder, gas is not depleted to the liver for blood, blood is not depleted to the kidney for essence, essence is not depleted to the bone for marrow. This is the origin of essence. The essence is also the location of the vital energy. The half-moon mark is important because the information it shows is the condition of essence, blood and qi. The role of vital energy is 1. to nourish the five viscera and six internal organs of the body. 2.Promote the normal operation of qi and blood in the five viscera and six bowels. 3, resistance to external evil (immune function). 4, longevity and anti-aging substances. 5, genetic material. There is a saying in Chinese medicine: the essence is strong, the essence is weak and sick, the essence is small and old, the essence is dead. This shows the importance of essence and vital energy. In our daily life, it is good for our health to restore our essence and take care of our body in time. When there is a lack of energy, an important supplement is first of all protein. Chinese medicine says, “Insufficient essence and blood are supplemented with taste.” This means that protein should be supplemented. Good quality protein is better in neutral, such as milk, eggs, beans, fish, black sex food (Feng black tonic kidney), seed food, embryonic food, etc. After a month of adherence, you can see the appearance of half-moon marks, showing some recovery of energy. The number of half-moon marks reflects the state of your vital energy. In a healthy body, there should be more than 8 half-moon marks on both hands, and each half-moon mark should occupy 1/5 of the nail and be milky white, the whiter it is, the more energetic it is. If you stay up late for a long time, work under stress and have an excessive night life, it will lead to the depletion of vital energy and the number of half-moon marks will start to decrease. The decrease starts from the little finger and transitions to the thumb in order. The fewer the half-moon marks, the weaker the vital energy and the more likely to have cold hands and feet. If you don’t have half-moon marks, it means that your innate energy is not enough. The number of half-moon marks should be 8-10 for both hands. 2.Form The area of half-moon marks should be one-fifth of the nail. The whiter the half-moon mark, the better, the stronger the energy. 5. abnormal half-moon marks 1. less half-moon marks The less half-moon marks, the worse the energy, the colder the body, that is, the immunity is weak, the body hands and feet cold. 2. Three types of abnormal half-moon marks (1) Cold bottom type – the less half-moon marks, the colder it is, and no half-moon marks are cold type. The cold type indicates that the yang energy in the body is weak while the yin cold is more exuberant. This kind of person has low function of internal organs, slow running of qi and blood, easily fatigued and weak, poor spirit, poor absorption, pale face, cold hands and feet, frightened, drowsy, easy to catch cold, repeated cold, slowly decline in energy and physique, even stagnation of phlegm and dampness, stagnation of qi and blood, phlegm and dampness nodules, easy to produce tumor. (2) Hot bottom type – Anyone who also has a half-moon mark on the little finger is of the hot type. The half-moon mark is larger than one-fifth of the nail in the hot type. If the half-moon mark is enlarged, it means that the yang energy in the body is strong, the internal organs are strong and the body is in good condition. However, in the case of disease, the Yang energy is on the strong side. In this type of person, the internal organs are hyperactive and can see redness, fire, irritability, constipation, irritability, dry mouth, large food intake, not afraid of cold, good movement, and even high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and easy to have a stroke. (3) Cold-hot staggered type – Any half-moon scar with blurred border and color gradually approaching the color of nail body is cold-hot staggered or yin-yang imbalance. Initial stage: The edge of the half-moon scar starts to be indistinct, like putting light. Middle stage: The half-moon mark starts to shrink. In the later stage, the half-moon scar gradually decreases and disappears. 3. Half-moon scar area (1) If the half-moon scar area is less than one-fifth of the nail, it indicates a lack of energy and poor absorption ability of the stomach and intestines. If the half-moon mark suddenly becomes obscure, shrinks and disappears, it often suffers from consuming disease, tumor, bleeding, etc. Before children develop, there is no half-moon mark. If adults have too much night life and sex life, the half-moon mark will disappear and it will be difficult to grow out. (2) When the half-moon mark is larger than one-fifth, it is mostly cardiac hypertrophy, and is prone to cardiovascular, hypertension, stroke and other diseases. 4, the color of the half-moon mark (1) milk white – indicates normal, such people have strong energy, good physical fitness, physical and mental health. (2) Gray – indicates that the essence is weak, affecting the operation of the digestive and absorption functions of the spleen and stomach, easily causing anemia, fatigue and weakness. (3) pink – indistinguishable from the color of the nail body, indicating a decline in the function of the internal organs, excessive physical exertion, easily caused by *25120*, nail filth and other diseases. (4) purple – easy to cause poor cardiovascular blood circulation, insufficient blood and oxygen supply, easy dizziness, headaches, cerebral arteriosclerosis. (5) black – mostly seen in serious heart disease, tumors or long-term medication caused by drugs and heavy metal poisoning. Half-moon marks and five fingers 1, thumb half-moon marks – off the lungs and spleen pink, the pancreas is poorly functioning, easy to catch a cold, recurring colds, fatigue, in serious cases prone to diabetes. 2, the index finger half-moon mark – related to the intestines and stomach When pink, it means that the circulation of the stomach and large intestine is poor, and the appetite naturally decreases. 3.Middle finger half-moon mark – connected to the pericardial meridian and the mind When pink, it indicates excessive mental tension, dizziness, headache, unclear thinking, brain rise, insomnia, and excessive dreaming. 4.Ring finger half-moon mark – related to endocrine When it is pink, it means that abnormalities occur in the three jiao meridians running in the ring finger, which makes it easy for the body to decline and the yin and yang to become unbalanced, and women may get gynecological diseases such as menstrual disorders. 5, pinky finger half-moon mark – connected to the heart and kidney pinky finger is generally difficult to grow out of the half-moon mark, when it appears, most of the heat disease. When it is red, it is prone to serious heart disease. Of course, the absence of half-moon marks does not necessarily mean that there is a disease, but this physique must be noted.
