The old saying goes well: the heavy snow can make up for it, and you won't be cold for a year. Of course I don't talk about the day of "heavy snow". It's the time of the heavy snow festival. After the heavy snow and solar terms, the lowest temperature in most areas dropped to 0°C or below. The cold weather is the time when the human body stores the essence. At this time, warming tonic is the easiest for the human body to absorb. The heavy snow solar term regimen should be revisited to replenish, and the regimen should prevent dryness.
At that time, today, I also bought a pigeon and prepared to make a warm tonic Ejiao stewed pigeon. Donkey-hide gelatin is a traditional nourishing and blood-enriching top grade. It is made from donkey skin as the main raw material and filled with water from Ajing. It is amber, transparent and odorless. Also known as donkey skin glue. Especially suitable for women, because it nourishes blood, nourishes yin, moisturizes dryness, and stops bleeding. Used for blood deficiency, chlorosis, dizziness, palpitations, upset and insomnia, dryness of the lungs and cough. Ejiao warm tonic, not easy to get angry. However, it is recommended to eat more fruits and vegetables when taking donkey-hide gelatin.
It is said that one pigeon wins nine chickens, and the stewed pigeon with donkey-hide gelatin is definitely a tonic food. It can nourish blood and qi, warm and nourish kidney yang. For men and women
