Tremella, red dates and lotus seeds soup
Overview
Traditional Chinese medicine classifies red dates as qi-tonifying medicines, saying they are sweet and mild in nature and have the effects of moisturizing the heart and lungs, relieving coughs, tonifying the five internal organs, and treating deficiency. When the gastrointestinal function is poor, the peristalsis force is weak, and the digestion and absorption function is poor, it is very suitable to eat red dates regularly to improve gastrointestinal function and gain physical strength. In cases of mental stress, turmoil, restless sleep, or general menopausal symptoms, Chinese medicine often adds red dates to prescriptions. Red dates mainly have a sedative effect. Therefore, if you live a stressful life, you may wish to add some red dates to the main dish soup. The vitamin C content in red dates is very high. Tremella has the effects of nourishing yin, moistening the lungs, nourishing the stomach, promoting fluid production, replenishing qi, nourishing the brain and strengthening the heart. It is not only suitable for all women and children, and those who are physically weak after illness, but also has good skin rejuvenation and beauty effects for women. Lotus seeds are beneficial to the heart, nourishing the kidneys, stopping diarrhea, fixing essence, and calming the nerves.
