The hot summer weather, short days and short nights, eating fresh and cold drinks, staying up late, etc., disrupt the normal routine of life. Usually, the kidneys are changed with minor problems, and the kidney qi is weaker at this time. Kidney deficiency is aggravated, making people lose their appetite, difficult to sleep, frequent urination, sore body, sweating, and even colds and colds frequently occur... These symptoms are the result of kidney deficiency leading to the decline of the body’s immunity.

Therefore, in summer, we must pay more attention to invigorating the kidney. If we nourish in a timely manner and improve our own immunity, these signs of weakness can be improved to prevent summer diseases from invading the body. Chinese medicine believes that the human body consumes a lot of energy and nutrients in summer, so it needs to strengthen the kidneys in a timely manner.

Add some black beans to it, which can nourish the kidney and is comparable to "Maca". It costs 30 yuan a catty, and it's worth it no matter how expensive it is!

Pork belly invigorates the stomach and cures stomach diseases, black beans promotes blood circulation and has the effect of regulating menstruation and blood circulation. The two ingredients are cooked together to cure all gastric deficiency syndromes, and blood to regulate menstruation. Children eat it, which is of great help to brain development.
