tissues and some kidney congestion. Chronic low-HCL in the stomach, a weakness in the
spinal area, bronchiols and heart, and some liver toxicity.
Appearance:
Colour generally is blue.
Often the pupils are large and the fibres are very wavy and brightened.
The fibre density is looser and contraction furrows are common.
The humeral zone is usually brightened or may have orange pigmentation.
Potential Characteristics:
Often seen as the 'softies' of the world because of their sensitivity of the nervous system. This
leads to mental turmoil.
Anxiety conditions are common, they are the worriers in life and will have many phobias and fears.
Exhaustion caused by over excitement, they are very sensitive to the ups and downs of life; eg.
the phases of the moon.
There is a tendency to develop neuroses, as these people find it very difficult to overcome
emotional traumas such as unresolved conflicts and may become hysterical over trifles.
Neuropathic characteristics are common with this constitution, resulting in hypersensitivity to both
physical and mental irritations.
The nervous system can affect the circulation very strongly, with corresponding fainting spells
and dizziness caused by vasomotor disturbances. When the circulation is heavily affected,
hypothermia and migraines are common.
Blood sugar variances are common.
Very often these people are light sleepers.
Lymphatic congestion and inflammation are common allergies.
They are prone to diseases involving mucous membranes and the nervous system. Such
diseases include neuro-dermatitis, stress-related asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, nausea,
burping.
Tachycardia is common and low adrenal function.
As with all lymphatic constitution the possibility of anaemia should be investigated.
Nutritional & Lifestyle Considerations:
Mineral deficiencies may develop, especially zinc, iron, magnesium, and calcium.
The B-group vitamins are poorly utilised. Also, glutamine would be beneficial.
Follow nutritional considerations for neurogenic constitutions.
