BOOSTING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

Typical symptoms:

Disease description:

The immune system serves to protect our bodies against viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. The system in itself is highly complex and science has yet to fully understand it. Unfortunately, the body’s defence does not always work optimally and sometimes pathogens manage to overcome our natural defence, making the body susceptible to infections such as colds and flu and other diseases. In some cases, over-reactions of the immune system can lead to allergies or autoimmune diseases. Nutrition, fresh air and exercise have an important role in strengthening the immune system.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

The immune system is what Chinese medicine calls Zhengqi or Wei Qi and it is the body’s defence mechanism. If the organs and meridians Qi are insufficient, the Evil will invade the body and cause diseases. Therefore, boosting and balancing the immune system is improving the body’s ability to resist Evil or to recover from chronic diseases by supplementing Qi and Blood.

CHRONIC COUGH, CHRONIC BRONCHITIS AND BRONCHIAL ASTHMA

Typical symptoms:

asthma, chronic cough / bronchitis / asthma, cough

Disease description:

Coughing is a natural reflex to quickly get rid of germs, harmful and foreign substances in the airways. A cough can last several weeks, but anyone who struggles with coughing for more than eight weeks has a chronic health problem.

The inflammation of upper airways in the lungs, the bronchial tubes, is called bronchitis.

According to the World Health Organization, bronchitis is chronic when the mucus cough appears on almost every day within three months and this for two consecutive years. Like acute bronchitis, chronic bronchitis is characterized by coughing with mucus (especially in the morning), but it lasts longer. Chronic bronchitis is often the result of regular smoking and can have serious consequences. The ingredients of cigarette smoke, such as nicotine, irritate the bronchial mucosa of our respiratory tract, which is equipped with many small cilia, which consequently become inflamed. Therefore, the body, to get rid of penetrating foreign bodies, has to loosen the stuck mucus through recurring coughing attacks.

Bronchial asthma is one of the most common widespread respiratory tract diseases. The bronchial tubes become constricted in attacks, caused by the contact to personal allergy triggers, resulting in a hypersensitive immune system reaction and symptoms include coughing and shortness of breath.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

Chinese medicine calls chronic bronchitis and bronchial asthma “Internal Impairment Cough” or “Phlegm Syndrome“. It is usually caused by dysfunction of internal organs. The inducement is Exogenous Wind, Cold or Heat.

Long-term illness consumes Lung and Spleen Qi. Weak Spleen Qi leading to Phlegm retention. The Phlegmstained in the Lungs, congesting the airways, causing coughing and Phlegm.

The Exogenous Pathogens invade the Lungs, resulting in Phlegm obstruction of Lung, and the reverse of the Lung Qi.

The Kidneys accept Qi and help the Lungs to breathe. If the Kidney Qi is weak, the inhaled Qi can’t be supported by the Kidney, then the Lung Qi is reversed as coughing and wheezing.

Possible syndromes causing these problems:

Damp Phlegm in the Lungs

An obstruction of Lung by Phlegm leading to adverse movement of Qi resulting in long-term cough, dyspnoea, massive white phlegm that is easily expectorated, stuffiness of the chest, poor appetite.

EARLY MENSTRUATION (CYCLE LESS THEN 21 DAYS)

Typical symptoms:

early menstruation

Disease description:

Menstruation refers to the days when the menstrual blood flows from the vagina. A cycle is the time from the first day of menstruation to the last day before the next menstruation. This is different for every woman but normally takes happens about every 21 to 35 days. Usually, menstrual bleeding occurs 28 days after the last period. Normally menstruation starts with heavier bleeding, which becomes lighter over the next few days. The light red blood becomes darker and darker. The menstrual period lasts three to six days and at the end, there may well be spotting with old, brownish blood. As a rule, women lose a total of about 50-60 millilitres of blood during menstruation.

Cycle disturbances or irregularities in the female cycle can occur, which relate to the frequency, duration and strength/heaviness of menstruation. They are normal immediately after the first menstrual period, as menstruation and hormonal changes must first settle down.

There are many causes of cycle disturbances. Since the cycle is hormonally controlled, hormonal disorders, as well as diseases of the female sexual organs, are most often the cause of changes. Moreover, medication, genetic disposition, physical or psychological stress can also be the cause of cycle problems.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

Qi and Blood is an important factor in maintaining the menstrual cycle. No matter what causes Qi and Blood Disorders, it will lead to early menstruation. If there is Heat in the Blood, it will disrupt the natural flow of the Blood making it overflow from the vessels. The Spleen works to restrict the Blood to run in the Blood vessels, therefore a weak Spleen won’t be able to control the Blood, leading to the Blood will overflowing. Congenital Kidney Qi Deficiency can also manifest as early menstruation because Kidney Qi is the basis for maintaining menstruation.

HYPOTHYROIDISM

Typical symptoms:

constipation, depression, fatigue, hair loss, loss of energy, low blood pressure (hypotension), low libido

Disease description:

If the thyroid gland produces too few hormones, this is called hypothyroidism. Thyroid hormones are energy suppliers for many body cells, therefore a lack of these hormones slows down the metabolic processes in the body. Possible causes of hypothyroidism are Hashimoto thyroiditis (an autoimmune disease of the thyroid gland), removal of the thyroid gland or radiotherapy, iodine deficiency (needed for the formation of thyroid hormones), medication or drugs. The symptoms are typically rather unspecific and can be more or less pronounced: lack of drive, sleep disturbances, hair loss, constipation, weight gain, tiredness, general physical exhaustion, muscle weakness, depressive mood.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

The main way for the development of hypothyroidism is Qi and Yang Deficiency of Spleen and Kidney, and the viscera function is weak. The Spleen is the foundation of Qi. If the Spleen’s Qi is insufficient, the source of Qi is lacking, causing the Five Organs to lose their Nourishment and become weak. When Kidney Qi and Yang decay, there is Waterflooding, the Water flows upward to the Heart and causes Heart Yang Deficiency Syndrome. If the cause of the problem lasts for a long time, the Qi and Blood, Yin and Yang all become deficient.

Possible syndromes causing these problems:

Yang Deficiency

Fatigue, lethargy, cold intolerance, slow bowel movement, pallor, puffy face, water retention, abdominal distension, weight gain, poor appetite, poor memory, dry skin, low libido.
