Chives can treat bloating.

My family grows chives in the backyard, and we often use them in meals, such as as a side dish with salads or stir-fried with meat. I've heard that this vegetable can treat indigestion and bloating after meals. Could a specialist please guide me on how to prepare it to achieve this benefit? Thank you! (levanduong…@...)

Hello, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine, chives and chive flowers are warm in nature, slightly spicy and sweet in taste, and enter three meridians of the body: the lungs, spleen, and kidneys. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses chive flowers in remedies to treat cold abdominal pain, bloating, and urinary retention. In addition, fresh chive flowers are often stir-fried (with lean meat, for example) to treat colds caused by weather changes. Children who frequently catch colds should occasionally be given chive dishes to prevent illness. Note that people with a hot constitution should not consume too much chives.

For those who frequently experience bloating and indigestion after meals, especially those high in fatty meats, a small amount of dried chives can be boiled to make a decoction to drink throughout the day. This helps warm the stomach, soothe the lungs, and relieve bloating.
