Before we talk about mulberry wine, let’s talk about the main raw materials of mulberry. Mulberry is a common fruit that is rich in active protein, vitamins, amino acids, carotenoids, minerals and other ingredients. It is many times more nutritious than apples and grapes and has many functions.
However, I prefer to tell you that it is highly praised by Chinese medicine. According to the Materia Medica: “The mulberry is sweet and sour and can be eaten alone to quench thirst, benefit the joints of the five organs, invigorate the blood and benefit the qi, keep hunger at bay after long service, calm the mind and the spirit, and whiten the skin without aging.” It is said that “the essence of mulberry lies here”, that is, “the sweetened juice drink can detoxify Chinese wine, make a wine coat, moisturize and reduce swelling”.
“Nourishes the liver and kidneys, tonifies the blood, cures rheumatism, strengthens the body, and clears fire.” The Book of Materia Medica
It is said to be “sweet and cold, benefiting the blood and heat, cooling the blood, tonifying the blood and nourishing the yin. In short, Chinese medicine believes that mulberry is sweet and sour, slightly cold in nature, and has multiple effects such as tonic for the liver, kidney, wind, and fluid. It is a good fruit to nourish and enhance the mind and wisdom.
When it comes to the benefits of mulberry, how does it do it? Why does it have such amazing effects? When it comes to this question, we might as well put aside conventional logic for a moment and give full play to our imagination.
Mulberry is very similar in shape to the kidneys and has an intricate connection with them. Therefore, the wise ancient people used it to treat some kidney-related diseases. The results show that mulberry is indeed a good product for the kidney, and modern medicine has also confirmed this in clinical trials.
Secondly, mulberry grows well in the hot summer months, so it is not afraid of fire and has fire-clearing properties. It is shaped like a kidney, which corresponds to winter in terms of the five elements, so it is also beneficial for water. Therefore, mulberry is just a natural fruit that represents water and fire and can be used to nourish the heart and kidneys.
Perhaps some people will think: water is not a fire killer? How can fire and water help each other? That’s a good question. In fact, water can control fire, but it is this limitation that allows mulberries to make the most of everything. It’s like the palm of your hand can be called the back of your hand, and the heat of summer can offset the cold of winter. Another example is that the cold Antarctica and the Arctic are sparsely populated, and in the hot African sun, people often do not live long. But in places where there are four distinct seasons, people can live very well. Therefore, birth control is a very amazing natural phenomenon. In this way, mulberry cleverly does both water and fire.
