250 grams of cow milk, 100 grams of glutinous rice, appropriate amount of sugar. Wash glutinous rice, place in a pot, add water, cook until half-done, then add cow milk, continue cooking until porridge forms, sweeten with sugar before eating.
This formula greatly replenishes yin and blood. Suitable for weakness and physical exhaustion, with emaciated physique.
This formula comes from "Diao Ji Yin Shi Bian" and "Ben Cao Gang Mu." Originally used for "greatly replenishing yin and blood," especially beneficial for the elderly. It is a commonly used formula for nourishing deficiencies. Prolonged neglect of regulation or chronic illness without proper treatment leads to organ damage and deficiency of yin and blood, resulting in deficiency syndrome; therefore, treatment should focus on greatly replenishing yin and blood. The main ingredient, cow milk, being a "living substance" with high nutritive value, greatly replenishes yin and blood and benefits deficiency. Glutinous rice acts as an auxiliary, strengthening the spleen to support the action of cow milk. Together, they form a powerful formula for replenishing yin and blood. This formula has strong nourishing power, especially suitable for severe deficiency conditions.
This formula is moistening and nourishing; not suitable for individuals with weak spleen and stomach, cold diarrhea, or phlegm-dampness.
