The kidney mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine does not only refer to the kidneys, but is a holistic concept that includes the endocrine, immune, urinary, reproductive, respiratory, nervous, blood, and motor systems.

Yang deficiency causes external cold. Patients with kidney yang deficiency often have cold limbs, pale complexion, and are always afraid of cold.

Most patients with kidney yin deficiency suffer from dryness and heat, sweating in the palms and soles of feet, and red complexion. They can stew white fungus, wolfberry, lotus seeds, etc.

The conditioning methods that you should pay attention to in daily life are: 1. Don’t stay up late often. 2. Avoid long-term mental stress and don’t work too hard. 3.
