Introduction
Under normal circumstances, adolescents and young to middle-aged individuals with kidney essence deficiency can replenish it. They can consume more foods that nourish kidney essence, such as Lycium barbarum (goji berries), pork bone marrow, beef, etc. Additionally, medications that nourish the kidneys and replenish essence and marrow, such as Bushen Wan (Kidney Nourishing Pills), Shengjing Capsules, and Yougui Wan may be selected under a physician's guidance for treatment. However, for individuals with long-term illness, physical weakness, or poor overall health, complete replenishment may be difficult.
Generally speaking, adolescents and middle-aged adults with kidney essence deficiency can usually replenish it. However, for individuals with long-term illness, weak constitution, or poor overall health, replenishing kidney essence may be more difficult. Detailed explanation is as follows:
Kidney essence deficiency is a concept in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), often related to congenital constitutional weakness, developmental disorders, or acquired不良生活习惯 such as excessive sexual activity or prolonged illness that耗伤 the body's resources.
For adolescents or middle-aged adults experiencing kidney essence deficiency, the condition can usually be improved and replenished through appropriate调理. This includes consuming foods that nourish kidney essence, such as wolfberry (Lycium barbarum), pork bone marrow, beef, etc. Additionally, under medical guidance, medications that nourish the kidneys and enrich marrow may be selected, such as Bushen Pills, Shengjing Capsules, or Yougui Pills for treatment.
However, for individuals with chronic illness, advanced age, physical weakness, or diminished organ function, replenishing kidney essence may be difficult. Due to reduced organ function, the body consumes more than it generates, making it hard to fully restore kidney essence through simple调理. Complete recovery may not be likely. These individuals should pay more attention to health maintenance, avoiding excessive fatigue and sexual overexertion.
During the调理 process, it is recommended to choose an appropriate plan based on individual constitution, maintain healthy lifestyle habits, and cultivate a positive mental attitude.
