Disease description:

I’ve been feeling somewhat physically weak lately, mainly due to deficiency of the liver and kidneys. After drinking water infused with Ligustrum lucidum (Nüzhenzi) and goji berries (Lycium barbarum) for two days, I’ve already noticed significant improvement. Could you please tell me what other benefits these herbs offer?

The health benefits and effects of consuming water infused with Ligustrum lucidum (Nüzhenzi) and Lycium barbarum (Gouqizi) include the following: 1. **Nourishing the Liver and Kidneys**: This combination is commonly used to treat symptoms arising from deficiency of the liver and kidneys, such as soreness and weakness in the lower back and knees, dizziness, blurred vision, tinnitus, and hearing loss. When combined with Chrysanthemum morifolium (Juhua), processed Polygonum multiflorum (Zhi Shouwu), and Gastrodia elata (Tianma), it effectively alleviates tinnitus and hearing loss. When paired with Cuscuta chinensis (Tusizi) and Rehmannia glutinosa (Shudihuang), it helps relieve soreness and weakness in the lower back and knees. 2. **Protecting the Liver and Improving Vision**: Regular consumption of Ligustrum lucidum–infused water supports hepatic detoxification, thereby helping protect liver function. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health!
