      Men with kidney yang deficiency should not take Liuwei Dihuang Pills to nourish the kidneys

      clinical There was a case in the past: After taking Liuwei Dihuang Pills for half a year, my appetite was not very good. Recently, I even didn’t want to eat. My appetite was always bloated and stuffy. Then I found a Chinese medicine doctor for treatment on the recommendation of others. After the doctor inquired about the medical history and symptoms, he found that the tongue was covered with thick coating, greasy and slippery, and the pulse was smooth and strong.

      Why does this symptom occur? This patient suffers from spleen deficiency and excess dampness, and needs to strengthen the spleen and remove dampness, but Liuwei Dihuang Pills, if not cured, will only make matters worse. This is because Liuwei Dihuang Pill is a traditional Chinese medicine that can nourish the kidneys, but it is only suitable for people with kidney yin deficiency.

      If you have kidney yin deficiency, you often feel hot in the palms of your hands and feet, feel upset, sweat easily after sleeping at night, have dry mouth and tongue, and suffer from insomnia. Dream , coupled with back pain, deafness, tinnitus, and thin tongue coating, you can take Liuwei Rehmannia Pills, but you must not regard Liuwei Rehmannia Pills as a panacea for replenishing the kidneys. For example, people with kidney yang deficiency feel weak in the waist and knees, urinate more at night, often have unformed stools, always feel afraid of the cold, have cold hands and feet, and have loss of appetite. Taking Liuwei Dihuang Pills for such people is just adding insult to injury!

      Traditional Chinese medicine experts point out that Liuwei Dihuang Pills should not be taken casually, and the cause of yin and yang should be distinguished before taking it, that is, whether it is kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency.
