It could be due to insufficient nutrient intake in daily life, leading to decreased immune function. It might also result from excessive internal dampness, causing vascular abnormalities and inadequate blood supply to the cardiovascular system, thus triggering the aforementioned symptoms. Regular physical exercise can help improve the body's immunity, such as practicing yoga, jogging, or brisk walking.
