Qi and blood deficiency is a common issue among many women. It not only affects health but also directly impacts one's appearance. So, how to replenish qi and blood? Below, the editor recommends three types of herbal teas to help you achieve abundant qi and blood for good health...
1. Rose Qi-Replenishing Tea: Nourishes qi and blood, provides comprehensive nutrition
Today, let's talk about a flower tea for nourishing qi and blood—Rose, Jujube, and American Ginseng Qi-Replenishing Tea!
Benefits of Rose, Jujube, and American Ginseng Qi-Replenishing Tea: Rose is warm in nature with a sweet and mellow fragrance, known for regulating qi, relieving depression, promoting blood circulation, and beautifying the skin. Jujube is rich in iron and vitamins, and has the effect of replenishing blood and qi. American Ginseng is beneficial for replenishing qi and nourishing yin, making it suitable for those with deficiency of both qi and yin. Therefore, this Rose, Jujube, and American Ginseng Qi-Replenishing Tea can replenish qi and blood, and moisturize the skin!
How to brew: Take 3 jujubes, 5 grams of American Ginseng, and 6 dried rose buds.
Note: This tea is suitable for individuals with qi deficiency, dull skin, and poor complexion. It is not suitable for those with yin deficiency and excess fire, or internal heat.
2. Jujube and Goji Berry Tea: Replenishes blood and qi, nourishes qi and blood
These days, I like to eat 3 jujubes every morning, and sometimes I enjoy brewing tea with jujubes and goji berries together. Jujube tonifies the middle jiao, replenishes qi, nourishes blood, and calms the spirit. Goji berries nourish the liver and kidneys, and improve eye health. Therefore, brewing jujubes and goji berries together has a significant effect on replenishing blood and qi.
Benefits of Jujube and Goji Berry Tea: Increases blood oxygen content and nourishes qi and blood!
How to brew: Use 6 jujubes and 10 goji berries. Rinse them with clean water, then place them in a cup and steep for 5 minutes before drinking. After finishing the tea, you can eat the jujubes and goji berries!
Note: This Jujube and Goji Berry Tea is suitable for people with anemia, cold hands and feet, and those who often stay up late. However, it is not suitable for individuals with damp-heat in the middle jiao, heat-type colds, fever, or abdominal bloating and stagnation.
3. Walnut, Longan, and Jujube Tea: Nourishes the heart and spleen, benefits qi and blood
A few days ago, a friend told me that every year around this time, he gets a headache that lasts for several days. He went to the hospital for a check-up but nothing was wrong. In fact, this is a sign of qi and blood deficiency. The persistent headache is due to cerebral hypoxia from the deficiency. I recommended a special tea for him: Walnut, Longan, and Jujube Tea, which can replenish qi and blood.
Benefits of Walnut, Longan, and Jujube Tea: Walnut kernels are brain-boosting, can help with neurasthenia, and also replenish qi and nourish blood. Longan is suitable for those with deficiency of both the heart and spleen, and deficiency of both qi and blood. Jujube has the dual benefit of replenishing both qi and blood. Therefore, brewing these together can nourish the heart and spleen, and replenish qi and blood!
How to brew: Crack open one walnut to get the kernels, use 3 longans and 3 jujubes, then brew them together. Let it steep for about 3 minutes before drinking!
Note: This tea is suitable for the elderly, people with anemia, and those with menstrual pain. However, it is not suitable for people with colds, coughs, fever, or those with a constitution of yin deficiency and excess fire.
Especially for women who sit in an office for long periods, most of them need to replenish qi and blood, so you can often brew these teas to help!
