Men with qi deficiency can take foods that replenish qi and blood, such as Ren Shen Jian Pi Wan (Ginseng Spleen Strengthening Pills) and Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan (Spleen-Qi Tonifying Pills). Symptoms of qi deficiency generally include weak limbs, sallow or pale complexion, shortness of breath, excessive sweating, and susceptibility to colds. In such cases, clinicians often modify the Si Jun Zi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) for treatment. Herbal decoctions usually have a faster effect compared to ready-made Chinese medicines and can be adjusted according to individual physical conditions.
