Drinking water infused with Kudzu root and Cassia seeds offers multiple health benefits. They can clear heat and toxins from the body, effectively alleviating symptoms such as fever, dry mouth, and sore throat. Kudzu root has the effect of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, thus helping to ease symptoms of respiratory diseases. The flavonoids present in Kudzu root can dilate blood vessels and lower blood pressure, benefiting cardiovascular health. Cassia seeds are rich in flavonoids and saponins, which help reduce blood lipid levels, lower cholesterol and triglycerides. In addition, both ingredients are rich in antioxidants that help eliminate free radicals, delay aging, and prevent diseases. However, it is important to note that seasonings should be added in moderation according to individual taste preferences, and excessive consumption should be avoided.
