Traditional Chinese Medicine Says: People Who Lose Hair Easily—Don’t Rush to “Get Strong”

Those who shed a lot of hair are often people whose spleen and stomach functions are weak.

Most of them are quick-tempered, with bodies that are actually fragile and low in energy,
yet they tend to think too much and do too little, constantly wearing themselves out.
The result? Instead of becoming stronger, they grow more anxious—and their hair falls out in handfuls.

Everyone knows the spleen governs transformation and transportation,but it doesn’t only process food—it also processes our emotions.When the spleen and stomach are weak, liver qi often becomes stagnant.

The liver belongs to wood, the spleen to earth;when liver wood overacts on spleen earth,
the spleen’s ability to distribute and transform declines.With liver stagnation and spleen deficiency,the movement of phlegm, dampness, qi, blood, and vital essence is disrupted,
and the first place to show the problem is at the tips of the body—our hair.

Knowing this, what should we do?

  1. Worry hurts the spleen. Avoid excessive, scattered thoughts.
    Focus on doing one or two things well instead of worrying about everything.

  2. Accept being ordinary. Allow yourself to make mistakes.
    Let go of perfectionism; stop obsessing over right and wrong.

  3. Stay away from anxiety. Build moderate resilience, learn to release emotions,
    and relieve inner pressure. Proper rest isn’t laziness—it fuels better progress.
    The road will open when the car reaches the mountain; don’t fret over things that haven’t happened.

  4. Practice self-love. Stop internal battles, enjoy the present,
    feel the world with your heart, and accept yourself and others.

To nourish the spleen and stomach, eat three regular meals,avoid spicy and stimulating foods.Those with spleen deficiency are actually fortunate—hair loss is a signal to slow down and understand yourself.

When you recognize this and ease your pace,hair loss will naturally improve.
