　　[What tea can nourish the kidneys]

　　1. Goji Berry

　　Goji berries have been known as a good medicine for nourishing the kidneys since ancient times. Goji berries are rich in various trace elements and vitamins, which can nourish yin, protect the eyes, and enhance immunity. They have been commonly used by generations of doctors to treat blurred vision and night blindness caused by liver blood deficiency and kidney yin deficiency. The most common way to consume goji berries is by steeping them in water, but most of the vitamins in goji berries are water-soluble and can be easily destroyed by heat. Moreover, it is difficult for the body to fully absorb carotenes contained in goji berries. It is best to soak them in warm water for a while or chew a few berries directly.

　　2. Cistanche

　　Cistanche is known as the "desert ginseng" and is also a commonly used precious medicinal herb for kidney nourishment and yang enhancement.

The famous Tang Dynasty physician Zhen Quan also believed that it can "nourish the marrow, improve complexion, and extend life." All these indicate that cistanche is a precious medicinal herb that can delay aging.
