Soup that relieves heat and warms Qi---Winter Melon and Old Duck Soup

Overview

In hot weather, the main treatments are to clear away heat and strengthen the spleen and stomach. It is best to eat light and nourishing yin foods. Duck is a good tonic in summer. It is not only rich in nutrients, but also lives in water all year round. It is cooler in nature and has the functions of nourishing the yang of the five internal organs, clearing away the heat caused by fatigue, nourishing blood and water, nourishing the stomach and promoting fluid production. It is best to stew duck in summer. You can also add winter melon and other ingredients to the old duck soup to improve the nourishing effect. Drinking some winter melon and old duck soup appropriately can strengthen the spleen, reduce dampness, and dispel summer heat. I added a few ginseng roots, which also have the effect of replenishing qi. Ginseng is relatively warming and tonic.
