Snow Fungus, Walnut and Sea-Cucumber Double-Boiled Tonic

Why people make this tonic

In traditional thinking, when the body has been worn down — by illness itself, or by the rigors of treatment — the priority is to rebuild the body’s foundation, especially after surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Nourilo’s snow fungus, walnut and sea-cucumber tonic is a gentle, double-boiled bowl traditionally taken to support the kidney essence and nourish the lungs and stomach, which is why people who feel weak and depleted reach for it to help build strength.
