3 Great Ways To Improve Your Health And Your Love Life
Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! Flower vendors, candy manufacturers and jewelry stores are all bombarding us with ideas about ways to show our love. In Chinese Medicine, one way to insure a good love life is to have plentiful kidney qi. For thousands of years, the Chinese medical practitioners have known that an abundance of kidney qi is essential to having a strong libido. Kidney qi is also key to vibrant health, illness prevention, more energy, better sleep and a longer life. Pretty terrific huh?

3 great ways to boost your Kidney Qi
1. Eat foods that nourish your kidneys – Goji berries (Gou Qi Zi), Raspberries, Cherries. Green onions, Black beans, Kidney beans, Shrimp, Lamb, Sweet potatoes, Herbs such as basil, fennel, garlic, and ginger; and Walnuts.
2. Take Cordyceps – In the high mountains of China, Cordyceps is a fungus that lives on certain caterpillars and is considered highly prized for its medicinal properties. Fortunately, this unique material has become more readily available as a result of modern cultivation. Cordyceps builds your kidney qi (both kidney yang and yin) over time and can increase energy and stamina. It is also used for improving liver function, strengthening your immune system, and enhancing athletic performance. It is used to treat coughs, bronchitis, weakness and fatigue. Do not use Cordyceps if you have a fever or an autoimmune disorder. As with any herbal medicine, it is always best to see a professional with questions and concerns.
3. Show yourself or your loved one some appreciation with an acupuncture treatment – Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs are wonderful for strengthening your Kidney Qi.
