Yam, red dates and black-bone chicken soup

Overview

In the past two days, the weather has been hot and cold, and my son accidentally caught a cold. Stewing this light, non-greasy black-bone chicken soup for him to drink will help him get better faster. Black-bone chicken is rich in melanin, protein, B vitamins and other 18 kinds of amino acids and 18 kinds of trace elements. Among them, the contents of niacin, vitamin E, phosphorus, iron, potassium and sodium are higher than that of ordinary chicken, but the cholesterol and fat content are very low. The serum total protein and globulin content of black-bone chicken are significantly higher than that of ordinary chicken. The amino acids in black-bone chicken are higher than that of ordinary chicken, and the iron content is also much higher than that of ordinary chicken. It is a tonic with extremely high nutritional value. Yams contain amylase, polyphenol oxidase and other substances, which are beneficial to the digestion and absorption functions of the spleen and stomach. It is a medicinal and food product that can only tonify the spleen and stomach. It can be eaten regardless of spleen yang deficiency or stomach yin deficiency. Yams contain mucus protein, which can lower blood sugar and can be used to treat diabetes. It is a good dietary therapy for diabetics; dates can improve human immunity and inhibit cancer cells. It can promote the production of white blood cells, lower serum cholesterol, increase serum albumin, and protect the liver. Red dates also contain substances that inhibit cancer cells and can even transform cancer cells into normal cells. The vitamin P content in jujube is the highest among all fruits and vegetables. It can maintain capillary permeability, improve microcirculation and prevent arteriosclerosis. It can also regulate human metabolism, enhance immunity, anti-inflammation, anti-allergy, lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels; the rutin contained in it can protect the smoothness of capillaries and prevent the fragility of blood vessel walls. Liver-protecting jujube can improve the phagocytosis function of monocytes in the body, protect the liver, and enhance physical strength; the vitamin C in jujube can reduce the damage to the liver caused by chemical drugs, promote protein synthesis, and increase the total serum protein content.
