Red bean and lotus seed soup

Overview

For office workers and computer workers, there are few opportunities to exercise at the end of the day, so the spleen and stomach do not work well and the moisture in the body is not easily discharged. Coupled with the high work pressure and little sleep, emotional and physical symptoms often include anxiety, anger, sores on the mouth and tongue, and loss of appetite. Today I bring you a red bean and lotus seed soup. Regular consumption can relieve the above symptoms. According to traditional Chinese medicine, red beans have the functions of strengthening the stomach, promoting fluid production, removing dampness and replenishing qi. Lotus seeds, on the other hand, have the effects of clearing away heat, lowering fire, lowering blood pressure, and promoting sleep. People with physical weakness and cold spleen and stomach should eat lotus seeds in moderation, and the small green core in the middle of the lotus seeds should be removed.
