What to eat to replenish heart qi deficiency
Disease description:
I went to see a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who said I have heart qi deficiency. I'd like to eat something to nourish and recover, but I'm not sure what's good for the body, so I'd like to ask: what should I eat to replenish heart qi?

Dr. He Haochen
People with deficiency of heart qi can consume longan and lily bulb porridge, which helps replenish qi and blood. Qi deficiency is caused by depletion of heart qi and may lead to symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, fatigue, insomnia, and frequent dreams. It is also important to maintain a light diet, appropriately increase nutrition, eat more high-protein foods, and consume adequate vegetables and fruits. Additionally, actively participating in physical activities can help strengthen one's constitution.
