Cistanche, Rehmannia and Silkie Chicken Soup

Why people make this soup

People with an underactive thyroid often show signs that food therapy reads as blood deficiency — dizziness, dull dry hair, dry rough skin, pale brittle nails, numb limbs, constipation, and for women, scant pale periods. This soup brings together blood-building and yin-nourishing ingredients in a balanced way: rich without being cloying, nourishing without feeling stagnant.
