Patient's question:
According to the elders, it can help tone the abdomen and also reduce the frequency of the baby's bowel movements, even to once a day... Is that really the case? How should it be eaten specifically?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is a pleasure to answer your question. The stomach contains protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron. It has the functions of tonifying deficiency and strengthening the spleen and stomach, making it suitable for people with qi and blood deficiency and those who are physically frail. According to the experience of the Qing Dynasty food physician Wang Muying, pregnant women with insufficient fetal qi, or those who frequently suffer from miscarriage or weakness after childbirth, should stew the stomach until it is soft and mushy and consume it frequently, which is most appropriate.
