【Digestive Health】Weak Digestion, Low Energy? Heal Your Gut the TCM Way
Modern lifestyles filled with stress, late nights, and irregular meals can easily weaken the digestive system.Many people suffer from bloating, poor appetite, bad breath, dull skin, and fatigue, yet only rely on quick fixes like antacids or probiotics — which don’t address the root cause.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), “the Spleen and Stomach are the foundation of postnatal life” — meaning, they are responsible for transforming food into Qi (vital energy) and blood.When the digestive system is weak, your whole body’s energy supply drops.

Irregular eating habits, overeating, or consuming too many cold/oily foods
Overwork, lack of rest, or prolonged stress

Excessive worry or overthinking, which “injures the Spleen”
