Women’s Favorite Beauty Soup
While soup nourishes the body, drinking the right type ensures women get the correct benefits!
Women with dull skin and poor sleep:
Dong Chong Xia Cao Old Turtle Soup — Combining Cordyceps and old turtle, this soup nourishes lungs and kidneys, stops bleeding and phlegm, strengthens spleen and calms the spirit, and brightens skin. Ideal for women year-round.
Women with irregular menstruation and rough skin:
Red Date Black Chicken Soup — Red dates have long been known as a top blood tonic. Black chicken further boosts qi and nourishes yin. Regular consumption regulates menstrual disorders and nourishes skin, offering cosmetic benefits.
Women with poor digestion, high internal heat, and frequent acne:
Chinese Yam Old Turtle Soup — Clears heat and detoxifies, strengthens the spleen. If you have yellow urine, drink this soup. Chinese yam has a strong flavor; season well to mask it—great test of cooking skill.
Busy, stressed women:
American Ginseng Softshell Turtle Soup — Compared to ginseng, American ginseng is milder, suitable for most people year-round. Softshell turtle is renowned for nourishing qi and yin, clearing heat, and strengthening the stomach. Perfect for busy, high-pressure office women.
Women in dry autumn/winter with lung heat and excessive phlegm:
Cordyceps Duck Soup — Nourishes lungs and kidneys, stops bleeding and phlegm. TCM considers duck meat cooling, thus better suited for summer. Those with weak spleen and stomach or ulcers should avoid it to prevent worsening symptoms.
Women with winter cough and shortness of breath:
King’s Crown Flower Pork Rib Soup — Clears heat, moistens lungs, tonifies qi, relieves cough and phlegm. Regular consumption yields better results.
Women suffering from stress-related headaches:
Chinese Lovage Pigeon Soup — Chinese lovage excels in treating headaches, dizziness, and limb numbness. Pigeon is rich in nutrients and tender in texture. Regular intake benefits women under heavy mental strain and overwork.
