Do you feel that your health is in decline? Do you get sick frequently? Do you often feel tired? Do you have trouble sleeping? Is it difficult getting up in the morning? Do you lack motivation to exercise and do activities? Do you feel depressed? Do you get upset and stressed more easily? Do you feel bloated? Do you gain weight and have trouble losing it? Do you have trouble with knowing what is good for you to eat to sustain your health? Do you lack the time and energy to cook nutritious meals? If you answered "Yes" to three or more of these questions, we have an answer for you. At Acupuncture Associates of Raleigh, we understand your struggle. Jinmei Xu is a fourth generation traditional Chinese doctor. She specializes in treating digestive system issues. Based on her thorough understanding of Chinese medicine and Chinese culture, she has created a system of Chinese whole health medicinal cereals known as "Zhou Liao" aimed to improve your whole health. "Zhou" (pronounced "Joe") is a Chinese word for hot cereal. But Zhou has far more ingredients than what we typically have in hot cereal. By combining whole grains, legumes, flowers, seeds, nuts, plant leaves, and plant roots, Zhou not only nourishes the body, but also treats various diseases. "Liao" simply means "healing" in Chinese. These unique Zhou formulas have been developed to improve your digestive function. Once improved, your body can transform the food you take into energy instead of excessive fat under the skin and around your belly. With abundant energy you will look forward to your daily activities. Eating Zhou will also help you relax at night and get a good night sleep, so you will feel ready to enjoy your life the next day. Zhou supports your internal organs' function, enabling you to become healthier and more vibrant. The ingredients in these Zhou formulas change from week to week to support all your organs' needs through the different seasons. If you are a patient at Acupuncture Associates of Raleigh, we can also tailor these Zhou formulas to your specific condition to better serve you. How to useUse these Zhou formulas to replace or supplement one to three meals a day. Use them as a breakfast cereal. Simply add 1 to 2 teaspoons of honey or some salt for a healthy start. These Zhou formulas contain fiber and plant protein, giving you steady energy to keep you going until lunch time. Or for a quick, easy, balanced, healthy lunch, bring a soup container full of Zhou and heat it up in a microwave for a nutritious mid-day meal. For dinner, you can eat Zhou with some lightly sauteed vegetables for a light, easily digestible meal to rejuvenate your body without overworking your digestive system. This way, you will feel satisfied without feeling bloated after dinner. When your body is properly nourished, you will no longer crave sweets or salty foods after meals. This will help you lose weight without even trying.How to prepareZhou is very easy to prepare. It takes the guesswork out of maintaining a balanced diet. Just add 7 cups of water and cook in a slow cooker overnight for 7 hours. This will cook enough Zhou for you for a whole weeks worth of meals. Alternatively, you can prepare the Zhou on high in a slow cooker for about 5 hours. When you ready to eat, just add some water, stir well and heat up in a saucepan or microwave oven until hot. Then you are ready to enjoy this well-balanced meal. You can also prepare Zhou in a pressure cooker for immediate use. Add the same amount of water, put in pressure cooker on high until boiling, then put on lowest setting on the stove to cook 40 minutes.click here to continue to page 2 |
