　　Why do our hands and feet get cold?

　　Four main reasons for cold hands and feet

　　One of them: Circulatory disorder

　　1. The heart is too weak to pump blood to the distant parts of the body.

　　2.Anemia : Insufficient circulating blood volume or low levels of hemoglobin and red blood cells.

　　3. When the blood vessels in the human body constrict, the ability of blood to flow back is reduced, leading to poor circulation in the hands and feet, especially in the fingertips. This is what people commonly refer to as “poor peripheral circulation.”

　　Number two: Insufficient yang energy

　　In traditional Chinese medicine, cold hands and feet are considered a type of “blockage disorder.” The term “blockage” refers to the obstruction of the flow of energy or blood. When affected by factors such as cooler weather or exposure to cold, the liver meridians become chilled, which impairs the liver’s function of producing blood. This in turn leads to a deficiency of yang energy in the kidneys, resulting in cold limbs, red or pale hands and feet, and even pain.

　　Number three: Hormonal changes caused by menstruation and childbirth

　　Number four： disease Factors
