Astragalus, Codonopsis, Angelica & Black-Bone Chicken Soup

Why people make this soup

Aplastic anemia means the body is not making enough blood cells, which can lead to persistent fatigue, easy bruising, and a slow, exhausting recovery from even minor setbacks. Alongside the dietary guidance from a doctor — ensuring enough iron, folate, vitamin B12, and high-quality protein — Nourilo shares this traditional soup as a warming, nourishing complement. Black-bone chicken (wu ji) has been valued in Chinese food culture for generations as an exceptionally rich source of protein and minerals; combined with qi-supporting herbs, it makes a deeply comforting broth for rebuilding strength.
