Middle-aged and elderly men often experience physical weakness due to cold stomach and poor appetite. They can regularly consume fresh ginger slices to stimulate gastric acid secretion and promote digestion.
Fresh ginger is not as drying as dried ginger, it is moisturizing without injuring Yin. Cut four or five thin slices of fresh ginger every day, drink a cup of warm water in the morning, and then chew the ginger slices slowly, allowing the aroma of ginger to spread in the mouth, reaching the intestines and stomach and the nostrils.
Dried ginger warms the center and dispels cold, invigorates the stomach, and promotes blood circulation. Goji berries nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish essence, and improve vision. This medicated diet can treat impotence, cold limbs, lumbago, weak lower back and knees, and fatigue caused by kidney yang deficiency. However, ginger belongs to warm and spicy food and can only be used in case of cold conditions. However, it should not be used excessively to avoid damaging the blood and injuring Yin. If there are symptoms such as sore throat, dry throat, and dry stools, it is not recommended to use ginger to avoid aggravating the symptoms.
