Gastrodia black chicken soup

Overview

A friend gave me two fresh gastrodia elata, one for stir-frying vegetarian dishes and the other for making chicken soup. As a precious natural health food, Gastrodia elata is non-toxic and has no side effects. It can be consumed by both men and women, regardless of whether it is cold or hot. Long-term consumption of Gastrodia elata has the effects of sedation, hypnosis, intelligence enhancement, brain tonic, brain strengthening, eyesight improvement, anti-inflammation and immunity enhancement. It is very beneficial for the elderly to delay aging and prolong life, for middle-aged people to eliminate fatigue and maintain sufficient physical strength, and for teenagers to enhance memory and improve vision. Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, Gastrodia elata has gradually become popular on people's dining tables, allowing people to unknowingly obtain the benefits of health care, physical fitness, and longevity while enjoying delicious food.
