A shortcut to increase qi and blood - yam, barley and Gorgon porridge

If you can find friends in this world who are willing to give and help with all their strength regardless of benefits, then yam, barley, Gorgon is well deserved. This is the kind of friend who is not impatient, calm and powerful, and can be trusted for a lifetime. When we are helpless and need help, we will be given the most silent, lasting and peaceful help. They are all revered as top grade in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". "All high-quality medicines should be taken for a long time, and they should be combined with the nutrients of grains to help people live longer." We need to be with real good friends often, and maybe we will be with them throughout our lives. But we won’t get tired of it. Isn’t it our blessing to have a few friends who support you all the time? If we don't want such a friend, then you are really a guy who deserves to be unlucky and has no one to sympathize with.

I often give the same advice to the frail elderly, young children with congenital defects, and those who are seriously ill. That is to drink yam, barley and Gorgon porridge. Some people say, can just drinking porridge help? Can it increase Qi and blood quickly? If you can't increase your Qi and blood even if you drink porridge, it seems that there is nothing you can take tonic. For ordinary food, even those that can increase Qi and blood, if we want to obtain its nutrients, we must first invest some Qi and blood to digest and absorb it. But for people whose Qi and blood are too weak, this little Qi and blood cannot be obtained. However, yam, barley, and gorgon seeds are good medicines and delicacies that do not require additional expenditure on our part, but can directly supply our qi and blood.

Let’s talk about yam first: yam is sweet and flat in nature. It can nourish both qi and yin. It can replenish qi without stagnating and causing internal heat. It can replenish yin without adding dampness and greasiness. It is the most peaceful way to nourish middle qi. This product has always been widely praised by many doctors. "Compendium of Materia Medica" says: "Replenishing kidney qi, strengthening the spleen and stomach, stopping diarrhea, resolving phlegm and saliva, and moisturizing the skin." "Jingyue Quanshu" says: Yams can strengthen the spleen and replenish deficiency, nourish essence and strengthen the kidneys, treat various deficiencies and injuries, and treat five types of fatigue and seven injuries... "Medicines of Medicine" says: Chinese yam is warm and tonic without being overpowering, slightly fragrant but not drying, and has the power to regulate the lungs. It is extremely reliable in treating chronic cough due to lung deficiency. Zhang Xichun, the most famous physician in the late Qing Dynasty, highly praised this medicine. In his medical monograph "Medicine Zhongshenxilu", he repeatedly used large doses of raw yam to treat many diseases such as severe asthma and excessive diarrhea. Critical illness. He said: "The properties of yam can nourish yin and diuresis, can lubricate and reduce astringency. Therefore, it can nourish the lungs, kidneys, spleen and stomach... It is truly the highest quality among tonics, and its properties are very peaceful. , it is advisable to take it regularly. "There are many varieties of yam, and the quality is the best in Huaiqing Prefecture, Henan. So usually yam is also called Huaishan (or Huaishan). Medicinal uses are usually dried and sliced. There are two kinds of yam: fried yam and raw yam. It is recommended to use dried raw yam.

Let’s talk about barley. If you feel that your body has moisture, such as effusion, edema, eczema, abscess and other problems related to turbid water in the body, barley is your best helper. "Barley is the best at diluting water and does not deplete the true yin energy. It is most suitable for people with dampness in the lower body." Barley is slightly cool in nature. If the spleen and stomach are too weak and cold, and the limbs are sensitive to cold, it is not suitable. Li Shizhen said that pregnant women should not take it, maybe because they are afraid that it will dilute water too much and dry up the amniotic fluid. Although there is no danger to pregnant women in practical applications, and it is often helpful, but for the sake of safety, you should listen to his advice. Bar. The main function of barley is to strengthen the spleen and remove dampness. Strengthening the spleen can nourish the lungs, and removing dampness can reduce phlegm. Therefore, this product can also be used to treat lung heat, lung abscess, and lung flaccidity. Used together with yam, they complement each other even more. "Yam and barley are both clear and nourishing medicines for the spleen and lungs. However, if yam is used alone, it will become sticky and greasy after a long time. If barley is used alone, it will become light and permeable after a long time. However, if they are used in equal parts and taken together for a long time, there will be no harm." Modern doctors once said It is reported that taking 50 grams of each of the two medicines and making porridge every day has a significant effect on cirrhosis and ascites. Why do we have to wait until we are seriously ill before eating porridge? On weekdays, it would be wise to mix the two into powder and make porridge for regular consumption. Besides, the porridge is delicious and you will never get tired of eating it. Some people may say that the porridge has a medicinal smell and is sour and unpleasant to drink. I am afraid that the quality of the ingredients you selected is not good. Due to different varieties, some yams will have a slightly sour taste, but it will not affect the deliciousness of the porridge.

Finally, let’s talk about gorgon fruit. The yam and barley seems to have taken up all the praise. In fact, it is not the case. Gorgon fruit is even more unique and wonderful. If you suffer from "detachment syndrome" or "leakage syndrome", then Gorgon Fruit is a strong big hand to hold you up. It won’t let your energy and blood be lost in vain. Some people have long-term diarrhea and are unable to sleep; some people have slipped spermatorrhea and it is difficult to control; some people have frequent nocturnal urination and cannot sleep peacefully. At this time, you will discover the magic of Gorgon Fruit. Chen Shize, a doctor in the Qing Dynasty, said it best: "Euryale Gorgon can relieve pain in the waist and knees, make the ears and eyes clear, and eat it for a long time to prolong life. Treat it as normal and use it of great benefit. Gorgon not only stops sperm, but also produces sperm." , remove dampness and phlegm in the spleen and stomach, and produce true water in the kidneys. "So Gorgon is an excellent choice for strengthening the spleen and nourishing the kidneys. If it can be used in the same boat as yam, the tonic effect will be even better.

Yam, barley, and Gorgon are brothers of the same spirit, and they all have the magical effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach. But the timing of use also has different emphasis. Yam can nourish the five internal organs, including the spleen, lungs and kidneys, and nourish qi and yin. It also has the effect of astringency and astringency. Barley strengthens the spleen and clears the lungs, dilutes water and benefits the stomach, nourishes the body with clearness, and is good at removing dampness and turbidity. Gorgon fruit can strengthen the spleen and kidneys, stop diarrhea and lingering effects, and has the greatest ability to astringe and consolidate prolapse. Some people make porridge with three herbs and add jujube to treat anemia, and the effect is remarkable.
