The main pathogenesis of dull pain in waist and legs, soreness and weakness is kidney deficiency. Patients with lumbar disc herniation who are elderly, frail or have a long history of disease often have these symptoms. Some medicinal formulas such as Cordyceps Stewed Squab are not only suitable for those with soreness and pain in the waist and knees, but also have good effects on symptoms such as general weakness, chills, cold limbs, impotence and premature ejaculation caused by kidney deficiency.

Main ingredients: 2 squabs, 5g Cordyceps, 10g Eucommia ulmoides, and 10g Cistanche deserticola.

Ingredients: ham, shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, and chicken soup when appropriate.

Preparation method: Remove the head and claws of the squab, cut it into pieces, blanch it in boiling water and take it out. Wash the cordyceps with warm water and add a small amount of rice wine to stew for 1 hour; wash the eucommia and Cistanche deserticola and shiitake mushrooms. Soak and wash, slice winter bamboo shoots and ham; put pigeon cubes, ham slices, winter bamboo shoot slices, and shiitake mushrooms into the steam pot, cover the surface with cordyceps, eucommia, and cistanche deserticola, then add a little chicken soup, salt, and rice wine to taste, and steam for 1 hour.
