"The Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor" The "Tao" of Health
The "Tao" of health preservation one
The Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor
What is the relationship between skin condition and diet?
Our skin state and diet are inextricably linked, "smell and take it together to replenish lean qi." "It's reminding us that a healthy and balanced diet can help us maintain a youthful appearance and delay aging."
"Smell and conform", that is, these things are not more, no less, just right, if you eat too much or too little, but it is harmful to the human body.
"To supplement lean qi", this "essence" and "qi", are derived from the five grains, five fruits, five animals and five vegetables we eat, these eaten substances, through the digestion and transportation of the spleen and stomach, it becomes the nutrients that the human body needs, we call it "jing" and "qi", which is the foundation of our human life activities, when "jing" and "qi" are full, it can go up, outward, to nourish our skin, the skin is young, shiny, vibrant.
When the "essence" and "qi" are insufficient, it cannot nourish the skin, and the skin will appear dry, aging, wrinkled, and dull.
The "Tao" of health preservation two
The Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor
Why should beauty skin care maintain the spleen and stomach and strengthen the kidney qi?
We often talk about human aging and the loss of life, which consumes people's kidney qi and consumes people's spirit. With the increase of age, people's growth activities continue to consume, consuming our human body's kidney essence, so human aging and kidney essence deficiency is very related. When people's kidneys are insufficient, people's life activities will become sluggish, become aging, the complexion will also appear dull, the skin will appear wrinkled, loose, sagging, aging performance.
Therefore, "replenishing lean qi" is through diet, the nutrients are transported to the kidneys through the spleen and stomach, and the essence of the human body is supplemented, which can play a role in resisting aging and moisturizing the skin.
