What is Blood Stasis?

🩸 Blood delivers nutrients & energy, while Qi keeps circulation smooth.


🚫 When Qi stagnates, blood flow slows, leading to Blood Stasis Constitution.


⚠️ Poor circulation can cause chronic pain, high blood pressure, stroke, and heart disease.

Dietary Recommendations:

✅ Foods that promote circulation & relieve stagnation:

* Hawthorn 山楂, black beans 黑豆, rose 玫瑰花, black fungus 黑木耳, seaweed 海帶

❌ Avoid: Greasy, cold, hard-to-digest, or high-cholesterol foods.
