Eastern folk medicine has a very interesting interpretation of the state of health according to the color of your lips. Look in the mirror and find out what your body is telling you.

Lips should naturally be pink to dark pink in color, and all other shades indicate some problems in the body. Here and which one.

1. Pale pink

If the lips are pale, almost the color of the skin, this is a sign of anemia. Your body lacks red blood cells and hemoglobin, so you should eat foods rich in iron, such as broccoli.

2. Bright red

If the lips have a much stronger red shade than they should, it means that the body is overheating and that the liver is working overtime. The liver is a "silent organ" that "doesn't complain", so don't wait for it to hurt, but take action.

3. Purple-green

It is not unusual for a healthy person's lips to occasionally be this color during winter days, but if they constantly look like that, then it indicates problems with the heart and lungs, so it is best to consult a doctor and have those organs checked.

4. Dark purple

When the lips are this color, it means that something is wrong with the digestive organs, so it is advised to stop eating fast food and eat fresh foods rich in fiber.

5. Dark purple edges

If only the edges of the lips are this color, it means that there is an imbalance of yin and yang in your body, so it can happen that you are sometimes cold and sometimes hot. In that case, rest well, eat well, but don't eat strong food, reports Radio Sarajevo.
