⚠️ This is a recipe I started making in my mid 40’s. ➡️ If you are under 40, and prone to greasy hair and oily/acne prone skin this recipe is not for you for regular consumption.It’s very rich in internal moisturizers and better suited for those over 40 who experience thinning hair and skin laxity + dryness (increasing lines and wrinkles).
RECIPE
⚫ Black Soybean Milk – a Kidney tonic. TCM links strong kidneys to strong hair. I made this with my soymilk machine but you can substitute regular organic soy milk.
⚫ Black Sesame Paste: Nourishes Kidney & Liver essence to prevent hair loss and minimiz graying while moisturizing dry skin. TCM says black foods strengthen hair roots
💪🏼Beef Gelatin: A modern substitute for *donkey-hide gelatin (阿胶)* – a famous and powerful blood-nourishing ingredient. In TCM strong blood = Strong hair.
Splash of organic heavy cream (optional): now that I’m in menopause, I find that fats really are my friends so I try to include them often. If you don’t like dairy, you could substitute with coconut MCT oil, which I sometimes do as well.
Organic coffee: coffee is the perfect substance to cut the richness of all these ingredients to make a balanced, energizing breakfast drink.
I’m sure you all will have a lot of questions lol! As always, pop them in the comments! ❤️#hairthinning #collagendrink #guasha #lanshin #chinesemedicine #latte #antiaging
