What are the ingredients?
  • Astragalus Root (Huang Qi) - Strengthens the inner energy of the body and boosts the immune system, increases energy levels, builds up resistance particularly when your immune system is lowered by overworking and stress. Astragalus is one of only 13 herbs in the world that's labeled as scientifically "adaptogenic", which means that it has the unique capability to reduce the levels of stress hormones in your blood, helping you to “adapt” more easily to difficult environments, such as cold, a stressful work situation, or fatigue.
  • Codonopsis Root (Dang Shen) - An excellent anti-aging herb that helps combat tiredness, chronic fatigue, stress, adrenal fatigue and digestive problems. Also assists in immune functions, digestive and urinary health, and brain function.
  • Dried Chinese Yam (Huai Shan) - Long been credited with tons of health benefits because of its effectiveness at tonifying kidney and spleen. This herb enhances energy, aids digestion and absorption, repairs worn-out tissue, and helps alleviate bodily weakness.
  • Dried Goji Berries (Gou Qi Zi) - Benefits the liver, which manifests in improving eyesight especially if poor eyesight is caused by malnutrition, vessel expansion, inflammation or eye strain from staring at computer screens and documents for long periods of time. 
  • Longan (Longyan) - High nutritional value, full of vitamins and contains active anti-aging ingredients. Helps to promote restful sleep, replenishing blood and Qi.
  • Red Dates (Hong Zao) - Also known as jujubes, red dates are widely considered as the "living vitamin pill" by the Chinese. It contains Vitamin B, C, E, P, phosphorus, calcium, iron and more.  It helps calm the central nervous system, protects the liver, inhibits cell mutation, and improves strength of muscles. 

Frequently asked questions

What is the root + spring Good Health and Immunity herbal soup kit?

It is a classic Chinese herbal soup mix of six dried herbs and fruits, handcrafted in small batches in the USA. The herbs are traditionally used to build qi and nourish blood, so this is the kind of soup Chinese families make when someone is run down or recovering. Each kit makes 4 hearty servings and is family friendly.

What is this Chinese herbal broth traditionally used for?

In Chinese medicine this broth is traditionally used to invigorate qi, calm the shen, or spirit, and clear heat. It is formulated to support immune health and energy, and people often reach for it during seasonal changes, after travel and jet lag, during recovery after surgery, in the postpartum weeks, or simply when they feel depleted.

What herbs are in the Good Health and Immunity soup mix?

The kit contains Astragalus root (Huang qi), Codonopsis root (Dang shen), dried Chinese yam (Huai shan), goji berries (Gou qi zi), longan (Long yan) and red dates (Hong zao). Astragalus and codonopsis are the classic qi tonics, while goji, longan and red dates add natural sweetness and are traditionally used to nourish blood. All ingredients are 100% natural.

How do you cook a Chinese herbal soup kit?

Step by step instructions come in the package, and prep takes about 5 minutes. A slow cooker works very well because it holds a steady simmer without you watching the pot, and its earthenware inner pot is similar to the clay pots traditionally used for herbal soups. Gentle, long simmering draws the most out of the roots.

Is the herbal immunity soup safe for everyone, including pregnancy?

These are food grade herbs that have been cooked in Chinese kitchens for generations, and the mix is family friendly. Still, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, check with your doctor or a Chinese medicine practitioner first. If you take prescription medicines, especially immune suppressants or blood thinners, ask your doctor, since astragalus and goji can matter with some medications.

How often should I drink herbal broth, and how long until I feel it?

Many people enjoy a bowl a few times a week, especially through colder months or a stressful stretch. Chinese tonic herbs are usually taken regularly over weeks rather than days, and the effect builds gradually. Think of it as food that supports you over time rather than something that works overnight.

What does the Good Health and Immunity herbal soup taste like?

It tastes mild, savory and lightly sweet. The red dates, goji berries and longan add a natural sweetness, while astragalus and codonopsis give a gentle, earthy depth. Most people find it easy to enjoy, which is part of why it has been featured in Chinese cooking outlets like Omnivore's Cookbook and Homemade Chinese Soups.

How should I store the herbal soup kit, and how many servings does it make?

Each kit makes 4 hearty servings. Store it in a cool, dry place, and the bottom shelf of the refrigerator is fine if your kitchen runs warm or humid. Keeping the herbs dry protects their freshness, since they are handcrafted in small batches without additives.
