Blood Building Diet
Your energy is low, and we don’t mean you’re “feeling a little tired.” More like “drained by a vampire” or “down for the count.”
Welcome to blood deficiency!
In Chinese medicine, blood is seen as housing the mind. That’s why when blood is deficient, you’ll not only feel exhausted, you might also feel ungrounded, forgetful, anxious or depressed. You might look pale and experience dizziness or insomnia.
Your energy, or Qi (say chee), helps blood move through and nourish your body. Qi and blood support each other in a symbiotic relationship. This is why your general sense of vitality — your joie de vivre — takes a dive when your blood is deficient, making life feel like an uphill battle.
You may benefit from the Blood Building Diet if you experience one or more of the following:
Pale lips, tongue, nails dry skin
Dry hair
Hair loss
Dizziness
Blurry vision
Eye floaters
Fatigue
Numbness in limbs
Infertility
Poor memory
Restlessness
Lack of self esteem
Insomnia
Anemia
Here’s the good news:
The cure for blood deficiency is in the food you eat.
We’ll get you set up so everything you need to build your blood is right there in your kitchen. Let’s get you nourished.
