The yellowish complexion caused by weight loss can be cured by taking care of yourself. The principle of weight loss is to make consumption exceed intake, so generally people will control from two aspects: consumption and intake, that is, keep your mouth shut and open your legs. When keeping their mouth shut, many people choose dieting or fasting. Although the short-term effect is significant, the damage to the stomach is also huge.

Excessive intake can cause caroteneuria, resulting in yellowing of the skin, which is more obvious in the palms and soles of the feet, followed by the face and the back of the ears. In severe cases, it can invade the skin of the whole body.

2. Yellowing of skin caused by drugs

Long-term use of medicines containing yellow pigments, such as adipine and furans, can also cause the skin to turn yellow.

3. Yellowing of skin caused by poor blood circulation system

The liver directly affects the blood vessels. Excessive liver fire or stagnation of liver qi will easily cause blockage of the pulse, affecting the blood circulation of the face, and the skin will naturally become dull.

4. Yellowing of skin caused by greasiness of sebaceous glands

The greasiness, old cuticles and stains deposited on the surface of the skin will cause the skin to turn yellow if not removed immediately.

5. Yellowing of skin caused by accumulation of melanin

6. Ultraviolet rays cause skin to turn yellow

Ultraviolet light is the main killer of skin aging. It can cause disordered lines, poor blood circulation, accumulation of pigment, and make skin color dark and yellow.

7. Often staying up late and not getting enough rest can cause skin to turn yellow.

Because you often stay up late without enough time to sleep, the gallbladder and liver cannot get enough rest, which may manifest as rough skin, dark spots, and yellow complexion.

8. Yellow complexion caused by accumulation of toxins in the body

When metabolism is normal, what we eat passes through the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, colon, intestines, and is finally discharged from the body through the anus. The entire process can usually be completed within 12-24 hours, so as to ensure that waste does not stay in the intestines for a long time. Due to long-term contact with the intestinal cavity, the waste will inevitably be digested and absorbed by the body again, thus causing the body to be poisoned. Although the body has such an anti-virus function, fatigue, anxiety or other physiological reasons can cause metabolic imbalance and endocrine disruption in the body, causing body waste to remain in the body for a long time. As the remaining waste begins to decay in the intestines, the beneficial bacteria in the sigmoid colon will continue to dissolve the waste and produce endotoxins. These toxins are reabsorbed through the sigmoid colon, continue to leak out and pollute the human environment, and then enter different organs of the body through the blood circulation system, and then enter the body to cause various symptoms, such as memory loss, fatigue, sallow complexion, constipation, hemorrhoids, endocrine imbalance, obesity, etc.

9. Yellow complexion caused by skin allergies to compounds

Hazardous compounds such as lead and mercury contained in poor-quality skin care products can also make the skin yellow and darken.

10. Yellow complexion caused by environmental pollution

Urban pollution causes the accumulation of toxins in the skin, which cannot be removed normally, causing the skin to turn yellow.

11. Yellow complexion caused by lack of exercise

Long-term lack of exercise. The circulatory system metabolism of the human body and skin slows down, causing the body to accumulate excessive waste and organic waste gases.
