The story behind the food

When someone in your family has liver fire rising or has short, yellow urine or edema, experienced elders will cook a big bowl of amaranth and tofu soup for them every day. After three days, they will feel that the fever in their eyes, dry throat and other symptoms have disappeared, and their urine has become clear, which shows that amaranth can clear away heat and detoxify, improve eyesight and relieve sore throat. However, amaranth is cold in nature, so people with yin-dominant yang deficiency, spleen deficiency, loose stools or chronic diarrhea should eat less. In addition, amaranth is best eaten at night because of the photosensitizing substances in amaranth. Some people who eat amaranth for lunch and then go out in the sun may suffer from phytophotodermatitis and many rashes on their bodies, so be careful.
