Chinese Medicine Matters

Treatment of Constipation with Chinese Medicine

Mayway Herbs Season 1 Episode 173

Constipation is one of the most common yet often misunderstood digestive disorders seen in clinic. In this episode, William Maclean discusses the Traditional Chinese Medicine approach to constipation, exploring its diverse causes, from Heat, Phlegm, and qi stagnation to Blood, yin, and yang deficiency. Drawing from decades of clinical experience, William shares insights into diagnosis, differentiation, and the lifestyle factors that influence bowel health.

This conversation is based on his article Treatment of Constipation (Bian Bi 便秘) with Chinese Medicine, excerpted from his book the Clinical Handbook of Internal Medicine: The Treatment of Disease with Traditional Chinese Medicine, Volume 2.
