Drinking water infused with kumquat peel offers multiple health benefits and functions. It is rich in vitamin C, vitamin B, and carotenoids, effectively supplementing essential nutrients, enhancing immune function, and helping prevent illnesses such as the common cold. Kumquat peel infusion can stimulate the secretion of digestive fluids, alleviate weakness of the spleen and stomach, and significantly improve symptoms such as poor appetite and indigestion. Additionally, kumquat peel helps dry dampness and resolve phlegm, especially in warming and resolving cold phlegm, thus providing auxiliary relief for symptoms like coughing and excessive phlegm. At the same time, its antioxidant components help eliminate free radicals and protect cells from damage. Drinking kumquat peel water not only offers a refreshing taste but also delivers numerous health benefits.
