What should men do about qi deficiency?

Qi deficiency in males may be related to physical constitution, lifestyle habits, or chronic diseases. Management of qi deficiency can begin from the following aspects: 1. Dietary regulation: Eat more foods that can replenish qi, such as yam, eel, glutinous rice, chicken, and beef. Avoid excessively cold or greasy foods to prevent harming the spleen and stomach. 2. Lifestyle habits: Maintain regular作息 (作息 should be translated as "作息" here, but since it's repeated in the original, it might be best to keep it as "作息"), avoid staying up late, and ensure adequate sleep. Engage in appropriate aerobic exercise, such as walking, jogging, or practicing Tai Chi, to strengthen the body without overexertion. 3. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) regulation: Consult a TCM practitioner to select qi-replenishing herbs based on individual conditions, such as ginseng, astragalus root, and white atractylodes. These can be prepared as herbal decoctions or taken in the form of patent medicines. However, it is important to follow medical advice when using medications and not to take them arbitrarily. 4. Psychological adjustment: Maintain a positive mindset and avoid excessive mental stress. Activities such as meditation or yoga that help relax the body and mind may be beneficial. 5. Regular health checkups: If symptoms of qi deficiency persist without improvement, timely medical consultation is recommended to rule out potential chronic diseases.
