How can one achieve a complexion as radiant as a peach blossom without makeup?
In addition to meticulous external skincare,
it is essential to focus on internal conditioning
to truly radiate good health.
Traditional Chinese dietary therapy has a long history,
not only for treating illnesses
but also for its excellent effects on anti-aging and nourishing the skin.
Medicinal dishes integrate medicine into food, utilizing the power of food to enhance the efficacy of herbs. As the ancients said: “Tea porridge medicinal dishes promote longevity.” They also said: “For women to be beautiful, they must first nourish the heart.” Today, Dr. Yu Longlong from Quzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital recommends a medicinal dish suitable for women to nourish the heart and calm the spirit—Yuan Zhi (Polygala) and Chang Pu (Acorus) Chicken Heart Soup. We hope everyone can enjoy delicious food that promotes health and beauty.
Yuan Zhi and Chang Pu Chicken Heart Soup
Ingredients: 15g of Yuan Zhi, 15g of Chang Pu, 300g of chicken hearts, 50g of carrots, 20g of green onion segments, 3g of minced ginger, and 6g of salt.
Method: First, place Yuan Zhi and Chang Pu in a small cloth bag and tie it tightly. Blanch the chicken hearts in boiling water, then remove. Peel and wash the carrots, and slice them. Clean the green onions and cut them into segments for later use. Heat oil in a pot, sauté the minced ginger until fragrant, then add 4 bowls of water, the carrot slices, and the cloth bag. Bring to a boil, and when the water reduces to 3 bowls, remove the cloth bag, add the chicken hearts, bring to a boil again, then add the green onion segments and salt to taste.
Effects of Main Ingredients: Chicken hearts are rich in protein, delicious and nutritious. Traditional Chinese Medicine has long held the principle of “like nourishes like,” meaning that chicken hearts are beneficial for protecting the heart and calming the spirit.
Yuan Zhi has the effects of calming the spirit, enhancing intelligence, dispelling phlegm, and relieving depression.
Chang Pu has the effects of opening the orifices, dispelling phlegm, regulating qi, invigorating blood, dispelling wind, and eliminating dampness.
When used together, Yuan Zhi and Chang Pu are found in the “Zhen Zhong Dan” from the “Emergency Essentials of the Thousand Golden Prescriptions,” primarily used to treat anxiety, forgetfulness, and insomnia. In addition to treating insomnia, these two herbs can also be used to address confusion of the mind caused by phlegm or anxiety.
Effects of the Medicinal Dish: This dish nourishes the heart, calms the spirit, enhances intelligence, opens the heart orifices, dispels wind, relieves depression, and aids sleep, contributing to beauty and health.
Suitable Population: This dish is suitable for many women, especially those experiencing neuroses, palpitations, insomnia, forgetfulness, tinnitus, or hearing loss.
