Why people make this soup

We all know someone who frets, broods and replays worries that may never come true. In traditional thinking this points to the heart and spleen being depleted, leaving the mind unsettled. This soup is traditionally used to support qi and blood, nourish the heart and calm the mind, and it is often chosen by people who feel tired and dizzy and cannot settle into restful sleep. It is a gentle, supportive everyday helper — for anything serious, food therapy is a companion to, not a replacement for, proper medical care.
