Obese people and yin fluids and deficiency
<p>Dear all who graduated and Tutor,</p><p>I am still studying, and i would like to ask someone who can help me to anwer one question that bothers me.</p>
<p>In an obese woman, is it possible that she does not have enough yin or yin fluids? In a friend of mine, first i thought her constitution is a "damp-heat", as she is overweight, sleeps badly, always agitated, cannot even rest for a long time. But watching her more closely I really dont see many signs of heat (like irritability, red face), as i see signs of yin deficiency . But her obese consitution makes me cofused.</p>
<p>I remember that accumulated phlegm makes fire (so she does have a depressive fire), and that obesity is an <u>out of cells </u>acumulated fluids. So can it be that within cells she still needs yin fluids and that is what explains yin defeciency signs? </p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
