The Efficacy and Function of Tianma Stewed Chicken
I am 26 years old this year, and recently I have been constantly experiencing numbness in my limbs. A friend mentioned that consuming stewed chicken with Gastrodia (Tianma) might help alleviate this symptom. I would like to ask the doctor about the health benefits and effects of stewed chicken with Gastrodia (Tianma).
Doctor's answer (1)
Gastrodia炖Chicken is a traditional food therapy method. Gastrodia, with a neutral property and sweet taste, enters the liver meridian and has main functions including soothing the liver and suppressing wind, relieving wind-induced pain, calming spasms, and soothing the nerves. It is commonly used to treat symptoms such as headache, dizziness, and insomnia. Chicken is rich in high-quality protein and various amino acids, which can nourish the body and enhance immunity. Its functions and effects are mainly reflected in the following:
1. Nourishing and activating blood: Gastrodia炖Chicken promotes blood circulation, improves symptoms of blood deficiency, headache, and dizziness, and may benefit individuals with hemiplegia due to aging.
2. Strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach: Gastrodia炖Chicken can accelerate gastrointestinal motility and promote digestion and absorption, alleviating symptoms such as indigestion and bloating.
3. Nourishing effect: As a form of food therapy, Gastrodia炖Chicken provides various nutrients to the body, including protein, vitamins, trace elements, etc., helping to strengthen physical condition and prevent diseases.
4. Improving vision and removing eye disorders: Gastrodia炖Chicken soup enhances visual acuity and the optic nerve's ability to distinguish, helping to relieve visual fatigue.
In addition, pregnant women and children should consult a doctor before consumption.
