What are the kidney-strengthening soups? Chinese medicine recommends these two

There are many male friends around me who always complain about their kidney problems and need to eat some kidney-tonifying foods. Then, the following two kidney-tonifying soups are perfect. Let’s take a look at how they are made.

1. Cistanche deserticola and lamb bone soup

Ingredients: 30 grams of Cistanche deserticola, 1 jin of lamb spine.

Method: Wash and slice the cistanche deserticola, smash the lamb spine and set aside, wash the scallions. Put the lamb spine into a pot, add water, scallions, and rice wine, boil over high heat, simmer for 2-3 hours until the soup becomes soup, add salt and other seasonings and it is ready to eat.

Efficacy: This recipe is very effective in treating kidney deficiency, essence deficiency, waist and knee pain, and weak tendons and bones. It is often used by people on the Mongolian grasslands. Sheep spine can nourish the kidney and essence, strengthen tendons and bones; Cistanche deserticola, also known as "Cistanche deserticola", can nourish kidney yang, drive away cold, and benefit essence and blood. It has the reputation of "desert ginseng" and is very good for men's health.

2. Black bean pork ribs soup

Ingredients: 50 grams of black beans, 200 grams of pork ribs.

Preparation: It is best to soak black beans in clean water overnight in advance; wash and cut the ribs into pieces; put the ribs into a pot with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat; after boiling, cook over high heat for about 30 minutes and skim off the foam; add black beans and simmer for about 2 hours, and finally add salt to taste.

Efficacy: Black beans are mild in nature and sweet in taste. They can activate blood and clear heat, and replenish deficiency and dark hair. Spare ribs also have high nutritional value and can nourish yin and strengthen yang, and replenish essence and blood. Therefore, drinking this black bean and spare rib soup regularly can nourish the kidneys and blood, and has a certain nourishing effect on hair.
