Health diagnosis based on skin color.

▶ Lacking complexion and becoming pale: Severe deficiency of Yang energy.
 
If blood circulation is poor due to a deficiency of Yang energy and blood flow to the face decreases, the face becomes pale and loses its luster. Consuming foods that boost Yang energy, such as sesame seeds, garlic, ginseng, pork, and chives, warms the body from the inside and stimulates energy metabolism.
 
 
▶ The face is dark and bluish: The liver is bad.
 
If the complexion turns slightly bluish and dark, it indicates that the liver is exhausted, causing poor circulation and a blockage of vital energy in one place. Diseases such as hepatitis or central nervous system disorders may be suspected. Additionally, blood stasis may be present due to menstrual irregularities.
 
 
▶ The face turns yellow: There is diabetes or gastrointestinal disease.
 
A yellowish complexion is caused by a problem with bile excretion, which is essential for digestion, resulting in bile overflowing into the skin.
 
Alternatively, the skin turns yellow when the spleen energy weakens and fails to produce qi and blood, thereby failing to deliver nutrients. Diabetes and gastrointestinal disorders may also occur.
 
 
▶ Face suddenly turned dark: Pyelonephritis,
 
Be careful of cystitis and gynecological diseases. If your face suddenly turns dark, it indicates a decline in kidney yang energy. Since such individuals have a high probability of developing pyelonephritis, cystitis, and gynecological diseases, regular health checkups are necessary.
 
 
▶ Excessively red face: You should be careful of high blood pressure and rheumatism.
 
Excessively flushed cheeks are evidence of overactive kidneys, and such people may be suspected of having sanguine hypertension, heart disease, or rheumatic disease.
 
 
▶ Swollen face: You must be careful of high blood pressure and rheumatism.
 
Swelling of the face or body can be caused by digestive disorders or kidney deficiency.
When intestinal function deteriorates, the absorption and excretion of water are not smooth, and even if kidney function declines, unnecessary water cannot be excreted. This is when the body feels swollen or heavy.
