How to manage cold body constitution

Patients with cold body constitution can generally improve their condition by adjusting diet, increasing physical exercise, and using medications. Specific approaches are as follows:

1. Adjusting Diet

In daily life, individuals should eat little or avoid cold-natured foods such as crab, pears, watermelon, and iced tea. Especially during summer, consumption of cold beverages should be avoided to prevent worsening of the cold condition. Instead, warm-natured foods such as lamb and longan may be consumed in moderation.

2. Increasing Physical Exercise

Appropriate physical activities such as jogging or playing badminton can promote blood circulation, accelerate metabolism of fluids in the body, and help expel internal coldness.

3. Using Medications

If the above methods do not yield satisfactory results, medications that warm the spleen yang may be used under medical supervision, such as Shenling Baizhu San, Fuzi Lizhong Wan, or Buzhong Yiqi Wan.

In addition, moxibustion may also be used for调理 (regulation/treatment). It is recommended to undergo treatment under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional to minimize potential harm to the body.
