When I was in school, I was very interested in health care for a while, so I read many books on related aspects. At that time, I read "Seeking a Doctor is Better than Seeking Yourself" by Zhongliba people, and I liked the health knowledge in it, as well as some of his concepts: all diseases can be cured with the heart's medicine, and sincerity is great wisdom.

Traditional Chinese medicine says: the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow and the source of qi and blood biochemistry. Therefore, if you want to have sufficient qi and blood, you must first recuperate your spleen and stomach well. Therefore, replenishing the spleen and stomach is the key and prerequisite for improving physical fitness.

Yam is sweet and calm in nature, replenishing both qi and yin, replenishing qi without stagnation and fire, replenishing yin without helping dampness and nourishing greasy. It is the most peaceful product for cultivating and replenishing qi.

The main effect of coix seed is to strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness. The spleen can replenish the lungs, and the dampness can eliminate phlegm. Therefore, it can also be used to treat lung heat, lung carbuncle and lung weakness.

Gorgon euryale, also known as chicken head rice, is a strong food for nourishing the middle and replenishing qi. It is the best choice for strengthening the spleen and kidney.

The formula of yam, coix seed and gorgon seed porridge is highly praised by many well-known doctors. The effects of this porridge: replenish qi and blood, invigorate the spleen and nourish the stomach, nourish the kidney and nourish the essence, eliminate dampness and relieve water.
