Extreme cold, ultimate quick replenishment
The last solar term of the year, "Major Cold," is fast approaching. After a winter, have you seized the opportune moment to nourish your body? Or do you still suffer from cold hands and feet, back and knee pain, or dizziness and tinnitus? Quickly make final preparations before spring arrives and the yang energy ascends.
The transition from winter to spring is a season of yin turning to yang. The body's yang energy has been dormant throughout the cold winter, now poised to rise in spring. Cold weather most easily damages the kidney's yang energy, so it's even more crucial to tonify the kidneys before spring to boost immunity.
To seize the opportunity to tonify the kidneys and replenish essence, you can drink the Five-Seed Tea. Prepare 3 grams each of dodder seeds, goji berries, raspberry, plantain seeds, and schisandra berries. To extract their flavor more easily, you can crush them first, then put them into a tea bag, and steep in hot water for 20 minutes before drinking. This tea can strengthen the body and kidneys, improve the functions of the spleen, lungs, and kidneys, and enhance immunity.
Dodder seeds are sweet in taste, warm in nature, and act on the liver, kidney, and spleen meridians. They can tonify the kidneys and consolidate essence, nourish the liver and improve eyesight, and strengthen muscles and hair.
Goji berries are sweet in taste, neutral in nature, and act on the liver and kidney meridians. They can replenish essence and blood, nourish the liver and improve eyesight, nourish the liver and kidneys, and moisten the lungs and supplement qi.
Raspberry is sweet and sour in taste, slightly warm in nature, and acts on the liver and kidney meridians. It can benefit the liver and kidneys, consolidate essence, reduce urination, and improve eyesight.
Plantain seeds are sweet in taste, cold in nature, and act on the liver, kidney, and lung meridians. They can clear the liver and improve eyesight, clear heat and detoxify, promote diuresis and unblock painful urination, dispel dampness and stop diarrhea, and clear the
lungs and resolve phlegm.
Schisandra berries are sour with a sweet undertone, warm in nature, and act on the lung, heart, and kidney meridians. They can nourish the five zang organs, primarily by nourishing the kidneys and astringing the lungs, nourishing the heart and protecting the liver, promoting fluid production and benefiting qi, and astringing sweat and consolidating essence.
