Cuscuta is the mature seed of the annual parasitic herbaceous plant Cuscuta of the Convolvulaceae family. Because most of the Cuscuta are parasitic on soybeans, people also call it "bean vine" or "bean parasite". The ones with full grains, grayish yellow color and no impurities are preferred. It is distributed in most parts of my country, and is mainly produced in Liaoning, Jilin, Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Jiangsu and other places.

According to traditional Chinese medical literature, Cuscuta is sweet and neutral in nature, and enters the liver and kidney meridians. As early as in the first Chinese medicine monograph "Shennong's Herbal Classic", it was listed as a "top-grade" medicinal material because it has a tonic and strengthening effect and is non-toxic. It says "Cuscuta replenishes deficiencies, strengthens qi and strength, and makes people fat and healthy. Long-term use improves eyesight, lightens the body and prolongs life." Because Cuscuta is soft and moist, it is neither warm nor dry, tonic but not greasy, and has the function of nourishing the liver and kidneys. It is a medicine that balances yin and yang, and can be used regardless of kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency. Its effect of "improving eyesight, lightening the body and prolonging life" has been valued by doctors of all dynasties. For example, Huang Gongxiu, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty, explained that taking Cuscuta seeds for a long time can improve eyesight, lighten the body and prolong life. The eyes can see because the liver opens up the eyes, and the pupil's divine light belongs to the kidney. If the liver and kidney are full, the eyes will be bright, and if the organs are full, the body will be light, and longevity is certain. It is no wonder that many ancient Chinese patent medicines for prolonging life, such as "Yanling Guangsi Pills", "Shenxian Yishou Wine", and "Changsheng Bu Lao Dan", contain Cuscuta seeds. Cooking porridge with Cuscuta seeds and japonica rice can also enhance the effect of nourishing the spleen and stomach. Therefore, "Congee Recipe? Porridge Products Six?

For middle-aged and elderly people with insufficient liver, kidney, spleen and stomach, weak and thin body, insisting on eating some Cuscuta seeds porridge regularly is quite beneficial for nourishing and strengthening, maintaining health and prolonging life.
