Maintain The Function Of Spleen And Stomach
The spleen and stomach functions are basically equivalent to the “digestive system” in Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine theory stipulates that the spleen and stomach are “the source of engendering transformation” and “the root of the acquired constitution”. From birth, we rely on the spleen and stomach for digestion, absorption, and transformation so that our bodies can absorb nutrients from food, allowing our internal organs to function smoothly. When your body can absorb enough nutrients, you will have a natural glow with great skin and a healthy look.
Stay Healthy With A Strong Digestive System
A weak digestive system may manifest itself in two different ways – some people seem to never gain an ounce regardless of what they eat, while others will easily put on weight even if they don’t eat very much. Drinking rice water appropriately restores the spleen and stomach functions and helps the body regulate weight.
