Eat and sweat a lot? It’s not about the body “detoxing”, it may be related to these 3 situations!
1. Diabetes
In hot summer weather, many people lose their appetite directly, even for things they used to love to eat, they have no appetite in summer. Therefore, in summer, many people feel it’s a good time to lose weight. However, if during a period of time, not only does your food intake not decrease, but it increases a lot, and the frequency of drinking water and going to the bathroom also noticeably increases. At the same time, sweating profusely while eating is also a cause for concern, as this may be a symptom of diabetes. Sweating profusely during meals is often due to dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system in the body, and this dysfunction can also directly cause diabetes in the body.
2. Spleen Deficiency
If you always sweat a lot while eating, this situation is also emphasized in traditional Chinese medicine, known as “sweating during meals”. This means that if people around you are not sweating much during meals, while you sweat heavily, it is likely due to spleen deficiency. Because the organs in our body are interconnected and support each other, the digestive system and the skin are also related. When we have spleen deficiency, the stimulation from the heat of the food speeds up the digestive system during meals, making it difficult for our digestive system to function properly. So, if you sweat more than others, it’s likely due to spleen deficiency.
3. Qi Deficiency
In addition to the two reasons mentioned above that can cause sweating profusely while eating, if the body has qi deficiency, sweating profusely during meals may also occur. Qi deficiency refers to insufficient vital energy in the body, leading to a series of symptoms, such as sweating profusely while eating. People with qi deficiency not only sweat easily while eating but also more easily in general compared to others.
