Chinese medicine believes that the thumb, index finger and middle finger should all have crescent moons, based on six-month teeth. Healthy people generally have six to eight crescent moons, the color is milky white, accounting for one-fifth of the nail area, less than one-fifth, indicating lack of energy and poor gastrointestinal absorption.
Look at the color of the crescent moon to understand the health status. Milky white: normal, which means energetic, healthy and healthy.
Purple: prone to heart disease, cerebrovascular problems, poor blood circulation, insufficient blood supply and oxygen supply, and cerebral arteriosclerosis.
Black: more common in severe heart disease, tumor or long-term medication, drugs and heavy metal poisoning.
Grayish white: the digestion and absorption function of the spleen and stomach is affected, which is easy to cause anemia and fatigue.
Pink: unclear boundary with nail bed color, decreased visceral function, excessive physical exertion, yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang, easy to cause diabetes.
The color of the crescent moon does not need to be compared with others, but only with your own crescent moon. If the color of your crescent moon suddenly darkens, thins and disappears, it often means that you have a wasting disease.
The crescent area is too small: it means that the worse people's energy and physique are, the lower their immunity will be. In Chinese medicine, it is called yang deficiency, which produces internal cold. Therefore, people with cold constitution are often particularly afraid of cold limbs. More crescent or large area: indicating that the yang in the body is too strong. This kind of people usually have strong visceral function, but they are prone to get angry, fidgety and irritable, and even have no crescent symptoms such as hypertension, hyperglycemia and stroke: it does not mean that there must be diseases in the body.
