Sweet potato soup is indispensable in winter! It nourishes, clears away heat and soothes the throat

What I like most in winter is hot food. Many women tend to have cold hands and feet in winter, so they should drink more hot soup to help warm up the whole body.

If you want to know what the most common food in winter is, it must be sweet potatoes. You should know that sweet potatoes are very good for your health. Sweet potatoes can promote body fluids and quench thirst, and can also promote gastrointestinal motility, thus playing a laxative role.

In addition to sweet potatoes, red dates and brown sugar are also added to the syrup. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, red dates are warm in nature, sweet in taste, and have the effects of invigorating qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and dispelling wind; while brown sugar is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and enters the spleen, and has the effects of invigorating qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, relieving pain, and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

However, I would like to remind everyone that although brown sugar is somewhat beneficial to the human body, it is still a kind of sugar after all. Drinking it in large quantities for a long time will still have adverse effects on the body. It is okay to drink it occasionally, but it is not recommended to drink it for a long time.
