Choose hard and heavy water chestnuts, peel them and cook them with pork tripe, spareribs, ginkgo nuts and bean curd sticks for 3 hours. The soup will be sweet and delicious.

Just boil the water, add oil and salt, then put in the meat slices and amaranth and cook until done. This soup is rich and fragrant. Adding a little more oil when cooking amaranth will make it more oily and delicious.

If you usually feel anxious and chest tightness, you can try pressing the Neiguan point. Neiguan acupoint is an important acupoint for heart health care. It can calm the mind, regulate qi and relieve pain. It belongs to the hand Jueyin pericardium meridian. The pericardium in traditional Chinese medicine is located outside the heart, and can be figuratively described as the wall surrounding the heart. When external evil qi invades the heart, the pericardium can take over the heart's defenses. Especially the elderly are a high-risk group for cardiovascular diseases, and frequently pressing the Neiguan point can play a good health-care role.

The force when massaging the Neiguan acupoint should be appropriate, not too strong, and it is best to feel a soreness and swelling. Use the spiral surface of the left thumb to press the Neiguan on the right hand, and use the spiral surface of the right thumb to press the Neiguan on the left hand, alternating between the two. You can press the acupoint while walking or after work. 2 to 3 minutes will be enough.
