Chen's Black Chicken Soup for Women's Health

Black chicken has long been hailed in China as a remedy for many ailments including diabetes, anemia, menstrual cramps and postpartum disorders. It is also used to reinforce the body's immune function and to protect from emaciation and feebleness. Combined with a selection of herbs designed to tonify women's kidneys, black chicken soup makes a tasty tonic. The Chen's Black Chicken Soup herb packet contains 18 different herbs designed to tonify women’s kidneys and is excellent pre & post-menopause, for reproductive health, to combat fatigue and to bring the body into balance.

"I was amazed at how the soup made my skin softer and made the fine lines around my eyes disappear.  Everyone said that I was glowing!"

"I felt great - my fatigue was gone, I was buzzing around getting so much done!"

In Atlanta you can find black chickens in the freezer section of the Chinese grocery. In the U.S. they are known as Silkies. Preparation of the soup is a simple, though somewhat lengthy, process, involving two cooking periods - two hours the first day and three hours the second day. The resulting broth and meat are delicious and tonify the kidneys, liver, lung and spleen. DHA now carries the herb packets.

Please note that this soup is a powerful tonic just for women and is not to be shared with the children or men in our lives.

 

Chinese black chicken is the new white meat that guarantees a 'healthier life'

IAN JOHNSTON SCIENCE CORRESPONDENT

Black chicken was unveiled as a new form of "super-food" yesterday, after researchers found that the traditional ingredient in Chinese medicine has high levels of a natural anti-oxidant.

Black-bone silky fowl, which have black skin, meat and bones but snow-white feathers, have been used as a "folk invigorant" in China for 1,000 years. Now Chinese food scientists have confirmed they contain high levels of a substance called carnosine. This is a powerful anti-oxidant and is taken in supplement form in the West to improve muscle strength and alleviate the effects of ageing, autism and diabetes.

Chicken is known as a source of carnosine, but it was found that black-bone silky fowl had twice as much of the substance as ordinary breeds.

Dr Ying-gang Tian, of the food chemistry department at NanChang University, said: "The taste of black-bone silky fowl is usually better than other kinds of chicken, but its unusual colour makes some people hesitate to eat it."
