Boost Your Yang Energy With GinSen’s Yang Vital Boost

In Chinese Medicine, maintaining a balance between yin and yang energies is absolutely essential for optimal health and wellbeing Yang energy, in particular, represents warmth, bright, active energy, Yang plays a crucial role in powering the body’s metabolic functions, promoting circulation, and sustaining physical strength.

However, modern lifestyles, stress, and environmental factors can often lead to a deficiency in yang energy, manifesting in a range of issues such as fluid retention, dizziness, cold hands and feet, and more. Let’s take a closer look at Yang Deficiency and how to increase Yang energy.

Why is Yang Energy Important For Health?

Yang energy is essential for health because it is the driving force behind many essential bodily functions including:

Regulating body temperature:

Yang is the warming energy, when Yang deficiency is present in the body, it may struggle to keep warm and cause symptoms such as cold hands and feet.

Support for Metabolism and Digestion:

The metabolic process in the body is powered by the Yang energy. When there is a metabolic process your digestion can become sluggish, leading to symptoms like bloating, diarrhoea, and poor appetite.

Healthy Circulation:

Yang ensures healthy blood and fluid circulation in the body. If a Yang deficiency is present, it can lead to poor circulation causing symptoms such as fatigue, pale complexion, and a general sense of weakness.

Beyond physical health, yang deficiency can also affect emotional health. A balance Yin Yang can offer mental clarity, motivation, and emotional resilience. A deficiency in yang throws off the Yin-Yang balance, potentially leading to a range of health problems.

Signs and Causes of Yang Deficiency

Yang Deficiency affects every aspect of your body. It can either be localised or generalised. For example, with a Spleen Yang Deficiency, your muscles will fail to warm, and you’ll struggle to metabolise foods.

More generally, common signs include:

Cold Sensations:

Cold hands/feet, aversion to cold, cold lower back/knees.

Fatigue/Weakness:

General weakness, low energy, lethargy.

Digestive Issues:

Loose stools, diarrhoea, abdominal pain relieved by warmth.

Urinary Problems:

Frequent nighttime urination, clear abundant urine, incontinence.

Reproductive Issues:

Impotence, reduced sexual desire, infertility, menstrual irregularities.

Oedema:

Swelling, particularly in the lower limbs.

Temperature Regulation:

Cold sweats, feeling cold even in warmth.

Pale Appearance:

Pale face and tongue, weak pulse.

Low Libido:

Reduced sex drive which can contribute to fertility issues.

So, why does this happen? Overexertion, poor diet (cold and raw foods), emotional stress, prolonged exposure to the cold, sedentary lifestyle, and declining age all contribute to a Yang Deficiency. It’s about aspects of life that drain your internal energy, meaning your body’s energy simply cannot run at full capacity.

You’ll notice the causes are of two kinds: (1) burning too hot, e.g., overexertion or emotional stress and (2) dampening the flames, e.g., poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, or old age. It’s an important distinction because it partially indicates what we could do to get back on track.

4 Effective Treatments for Yang Deficiency

1. Supplements:

The solution? How do you increase your Yang energy? What does it take to feel fit and active?

The answer is GinSen’s Yang Vital Boost.

Formulated to boost your Yang levels using only natural ingredients, Yang Vital Boost is one of our leading supplements. It’s designed to support blood circulation, organ function, and activity levels.

The secret to its special benefits comes from the ingredients, including Schisandra Berry, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Korea Ginseng, and Magnesium. Together, these ingredients invigorate the body, giving you some much-needed Yang energy.

Let’s see how each one works:

Schisandra Berry

Schisandra berries are considered beneficial to qi in TCM. Indeed, they contained schisandrins A, B, and C, which are bioactive chemical compounds that come from berry extracts.

Schisandrin B, in particular, has a positive effect on Alzheimer’s disease. It appears the compound can block the formation of excess amyloid beta peptides in the brain. These are the building blocks of amyloid plaques which contribute to Alzheimer’s disease. Other potential benefits include liver health, menopause and even stress. Little wonder that Schisandra is considered adaptogenic.

Radix Paeoniae Alba (White Peony Root)

Paeoniae Radix Alba, known as white peony root, exhibits pharmacological activities including alleviating pain, tonifying blood, and regulating menstruation. One analysis found 15 potential active ingredients, which targeted 77 genes associated with iron-deficiency anaemia. Some of these pathways were also linked to immune function, suggesting immunomodulatory effects.

Korean Ginseng

Ginseng is a root that’s rich in antioxidants. Slow-growing, it was sought-after for many centuries in Chinese medicine. It’s used to counteract oxidative damage, a major contributor to chronic disease. In one study, American men taking ginseng saw decreased markers of inflammation and lower levels of exercise-induced muscle damage.

Meanwhile, other studies have noted its brain-boosting benefits. A massive study of 6,422 older adults found that those taking ginseng for at least 5 years had better cognitive function.

Acupuncture can be a very effective treatment if you have been diagnosed with yang deficiency. Acupuncture works by increasing the flow of Yang energy, promoting warmth in the body. The acupuncturist will target specific points on your body, by targeting these points acupuncture can invigorate the body’s natural energy pathways, improving circulation, boosting metabolism, and supporting the functions of the kidneys, which are crucial for maintaining yang energy. This therapy helps restore balance between yin and yang, addressing symptoms like fatigue, coldness, and low vitality, and ultimately revitalizing the body’s yang energy.

If you suspect you are yang deficient, along with the supplement we high recommend making small changes to your diet and lifestyle including:

  • Warm foods: Consume more warm or hot foods and drinks, such as soups, stews, and teas.
  • Avoid cold foods: Reduce the intake of cold and raw foods, such as salads, cold drinks, and ice cream.
  • Stay warm: Dress warmly, especially in cold weather, and avoid prolonged exposure to cold environments.
  • Moderate exercise: Engage in gentle, warming exercises like walking, Tai Chi, or yoga to stimulate circulation and energy flow.

4. Moxibustion:

Moxibustion is a very effective solution for Yang deficiency, during this treatment heat is generated from burning mugwort (moxa) near specific acupuncture points to warm and invigorate the body’s yang energy. This therapy directly infuses warmth into the body’s meridians, enhancing circulation, supporting digestion, and strengthening the kidneys, which are vital for yang energy. The heat from moxibustion helps dispel coldness, alleviate symptoms that arise from Yang deficiency.

Those who prefer moxibustion at home can use pure moxa sticks or smokeless moxa sticks on specific points for 10-30 minutes for the same health benefits.
