According to the World Health Organization, 75% of people experience sub-health, which means you are not sick but may be tired and have trouble sleeping.  Perhaps you are putting on weight but unsure why and do not have a diagnosable illness. 
 

What is sub-health?

Sub-health is the intermediate state between being healthy and falling sick. If you are in a constant state of sub-health, your immunity may suffer, your organs will age faster and can lead to more serious ailments especially if you are experiencing sub-health for a long period of time.

 

Unique body constitution

In TCM, every individual has a unique body constitution, or body type, which changes over time. Your body constitution affects how you feel and behave, and how your body responds to causes of illness. Undesirable health conditions and illnesses arise when the body becomes imbalanced.
