Q. I eat well, but I'm skinny and can't gain weight.

A.

You have a "Stomach Heat, Spleen Deficiency" constitution, characterized by excessive heat in the gut and poor absorption. Even with ample food intake, nutrients are either expelled as waste or burned off too quickly. To gain weight and grow taller, you must regulate the heat in your digestive system and improve your absorption rate.

📝 Detailed Answer

밥통에 구멍이 난 셈입니다.

  • 활동량: 너무 많이 움직여서 에너지를 다 쓰는 경우도 있습니다. 잠시 진정시킬 필요가 있습니다.
  • 기생충: 혹시 모르니 구충제 복용 여부를 확인하세요.
  • 간식: 한 번에 많이 못 먹으니 고열량 간식(떡, 고구마)을 자주 챙겨주세요.
