Cao lived his whole life without resorting to medicine and lived to be more than 90 years old. He believes that the health of the spleen and stomach is the root of longevity of the elderly, and attaches special importance to the role of regulating the spleen and stomach to restore vitality, "the spleen and stomach is the foundation of the day after tomorrow, the old man is more to regulate the spleen and stomach for the important". Because the weak stomach yang is born of all diseases, spleen yin is sufficient for all diseases. The brewing history of yellow wine is also very long, there are many ways to drink yellow wine.
