At first, I grew a little grass on this small pot. I just wanted something convenient to make some herbal tea, or decoct some small doses of medicine. However, after the pot got in hand, I was a little disappointed because of the stainless steel heated base. Although it is food grade 304 stainless steel, some medicinal materials are forbidden from ironware; however, it is always believed that the medicine should be decocted in a sand pot. If it is not used to decoct herbal tea, what can it be used for?
It just so happened that a pile of corn came to my house, and after peeling the skins and clothes, some corn whiskers were left behind. In summer, fresh corn comes on the market in large quantities, the corn is eaten, and the corn silk is often thrown away. In fact, corn whiskers can also have good uses. Corn silk has the effects of diuresis and heat release, calming liver and promoting choleretic effects, and has a little therapeutic effect on nephritis, edema, hypertension, gallstones, cholecystitis, diabetes, etc. It is better to use corn silk for fresh use. In this corn season, boil a pot of corn silk tea to clear away heat and dampness.
