Question: My daughter is 8 years old and frequently experiences loud belching for unknown reasons. Her hair is extremely fine, resembling corn silk, and there’s a white, dandruff-like layer on her scalp, along with a peculiar, unpleasant odor. We’ve visited numerous hospitals, but none have been able to cure her. Could you please offer some guidance, Professor? Thank you!

Answer: The child likely has gastrointestinal issues and poor absorption. According to TCM theory, “the middle jiao receives qi and extracts essence, which transforms into blood,” and “hair is the surplus of blood.” Therefore, gastrointestinal problems can affect hair quality and scalp health. I recommend conducting a thorough examination and treatment for gastrointestinal disorders.
