Take 5 pieces of dried hawthorn and 3 grams of tangerine peel, and steep in boiling water for 10 minutes. Drink one cup a day to help improve blood circulation.
2. Danshen and Red Date Tea
Danshen is a famous "heart protecting herb", and it is more effective when paired with blood nourishing red dates. Mix 3 grams of Danshen slices with 2 red dates that have been pitted, and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Especially suitable for people with high blood pressure.
3. Chrysanthemum Goji Berry Tea
During the Qingming Festival, it is easy to have strong liver fire.
