In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the kidneys are known as the “Root of Life.” They are responsible not only for growth, reproduction, and development but also for water metabolism and the storage of “Jing” (essence). Modern lifestyles, characterized by stress, lack of sleep, and poor dietary habits, can lead to Kidney Qi deficiency. One potential external sign of this is “bubbly urine” (a potential indicator of proteinuria). TCM dietary therapy emphasizes “using food as medicine,” and incorporating specific ingredients into your daily diet is an excellent way to gently nourish your body and protect kidney health.

TCM practitioners often recommend three natural ingredients: black beans, Chinese yam, and corn silk. Together, they work synergistically to tonify Kidney Qi, consolidate essence, and promote urination, thereby improving kidney function and helping to prevent the formation of bubbly urine.

Below, we will explore the benefits of each ingredient and provide you with practical ways to use them.  - More -
