According to traditional health wisdom, “If you don’t take care of your digestion in April, you will be easily fatigued in the summer.”
As the cornerstone of health, the digestive system is responsible for nutrient absorption and energy conversion.
If you neglect your stomach and intestines in the spring, you will be prone to fatigue and loss of appetite in the summer.
We recommend this combination of Chinese and Western breakfast programs to help build strong digestion and welcome the summer with ease.
Core Ingredient: Millet
Globally recognized as a “super grain”, millet is rich in key nutrients such as B vitamins, potassium and iron, and its mild fiber structure is especially suitable for people with sensitive stomachs.
