Donkey-hide gelatin honey paste
Overview
Donkey-hide gelatin has been a good nourishing product for people since ancient times. The "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" lists it as a top-grade product. It is believed that long-term use of donkey-hide gelatin can lighten the body and replenish qi. Doctors in the past dynasties have used it to nourish yin, nourish blood and moisturize dryness. With a history of more than 2,500 years, donkey-hide gelatin has proven that it not only has significant effects in nourishing blood and nourishing the skin, but is also good at nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, relieving coughs, stopping bleeding, enhancing the body's immunity, inhibiting the growth of tumors, and at the same time reducing the body's oxygen consumption. It has anti-fatigue and anti-aging effects, and is very effective in strengthening the body and prolonging life for those who are chronically ill, postpartum, and the elderly and physically weak. Honey is also a folk beauty product. Li Shizhen wrote in "Compendium of Materia Medica" that honey has five medicinal functions: clearing away heat, tonic, moisturizing, detoxifying, and relieving pain. When raw, it is cool in nature, so it can clear away heat; when cooked, it is warm in nature, so it can nourish the body, it is sweet and peaceful, so it can detoxify, and it is soft and waxy, so it can moisten dryness. When women eat donkey-hide gelatin, the effect is better when paired with honey, because donkey-hide gelatin and honey are both sweet and mild in taste, but donkey-hide gelatin nourishes blood, nourishes yin and moisturizes dryness, while honey nourishes qi, moisturizes the intestines and relieves constipation. The so-called blood and qi, nourishing and smoothing, moistening the intestines and laxative, the effect is even greater. Let’s go and see how to make Zijinshanquan donkey hide gelatin honey paste!
