Dr. He Haochen
Yin deficiency constitution is often characterized by symptoms such as dizziness, dull skin, body thinness, night sweats, and constipation. Individuals with yin deficiency constitution tend to have a higher body temperature than average. Yin deficiency results from insufficient yin and blood. Patients are advised to regularly consume Chinese herbs and patent medicines with nourishing effects, such as white fungus (silver ear), bird's nest, Zhibai Dihuang Pills, or Liuwei Dihuang Pills. Additionally, they should eat more fruits and vegetables and reduce intake of spicy foods.
