Poria, White Atractylodes and Hyacinth Bean Coat Drink

Why people make this drink

If you tend to eat a lot of salads, raw fish, or cold fruits in the name of healthy eating — or if you have noticed that you often feel heavy-limbed, bloated, mentally foggy, or tired no matter how much you sleep — traditional Chinese food therapy would say your spleen and stomach may be struggling with excess internal dampness. Nourilo has seen this pattern many times: cold or raw foods eaten regularly can weaken the digestive system over time, allowing dampness to accumulate in the body. Once the damp and rainy season arrives, those symptoms tend to get noticeably worse. This simple three-herb drink is one of Nourilo’s go-to remedies — warming without being spicy, and gentle enough for the whole family.
