Eucommia and Schisandra Pork Soup

Why people make this soup

People with kidney-related concerns in traditional Chinese food therapy often experience fatigue, a cold sensation in the lower back, weak knees, or occasional dizziness. This warming soup combines eucommia bark — one of the most widely used herbs for kidney yang support — with schisandra berries and sweet red dates. Nourilo recommends it especially for those whose blood pressure concerns seem linked to a cold, deficient constitution rather than excess heat.
