Today, let’s learn more about the fourth type of body constitution<\/a> \u2013 Qi Deficiency Body Constitution (\u6c14\u865a\u4f53\u8d28).<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
This is one of the most common body constitution that many people have.<\/div><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
A person who has enough Qi feels energetic most of the time and does not fall sick easily. On the other hand, a Qi-deficient person gets tired easily and is more prone to illnesses like flu and cold.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
Due to aging and many other factors (such as sleeping late, eating junk foods, feeling stressed, etc), a person\u2019s Qi can quickly deplete as early as in the 30s.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
The following symptoms are some of the obvious signs of a person with Qi deficiency body constitution:<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
1. Gets tired easily<\/strong> – For someone with Qi deficiency, there is lesser and weaker Qi flowing in the body so the person will get tired easily as physical activities require focus and energy to complete. If you feel tired more easily as compared to your peers, then chances are you have Qi deficiency.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
2. Weaker voice<\/strong> – The strength of our voice is affected by the Qi in our body. A person with Qi deficiency tends to have a weaker speaking voice. They may often find themselves having to speak louder or repeat what they say in order for others to hear them clearly.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
3. Falls sick more often<\/strong> – A person with Qi deficiency will fall ill more easily as compared to others. An average person may catch the flu or cold once in a year but people with Qi deficiency can fall sick every two to three months. The reason is because Qi forms part of our body\u2019s immunity. Having weaker Qi makes one more vulnerable to sickness.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
Qi deficiency can occur in organs like lungs, spleen and kidneys.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
