Heart patients can generally eat beef congee. Beef congee helps enrich qi and blood, strengthen bones and muscles, reduce swelling, eliminate dampness, and tonify the spleen and stomach. It is also rich in vitamins, promotes digestion, and is a semi-liquid food that meets daily energy needs. With its high calcium content, beef congee can be consumed in moderation by heart patients.
