Yin Xu

Yin Xu, in traditional Chinese medicine, refers to a condition where the body's Yin energy—associated with nourishment, cooling, and moistening—is depleted or deficient. This often results in symptoms like low-grade fever, night sweats, dry mouth, and a sensation of heat in the evenings. It can occur due to overwork, stress, or chronic illness, leading to a lack of body fluids and cooling energy. Restoring Yin involves nourishing and replenishing these energies through appropriate lifestyle adjustments, diet, and herbal remedies aimed at rebalancing the body's internal harmony.
