Our ancestors fed black beans and black sesame seeds to convalescent patients because they believed that black foods strengthened the function of the kidneys, which are responsible for reproduction, development, and hematopoiesis. Black beans, a complete protein, are effective in eliminating various poisons, promoting metabolism in the kidney system, treating diabetes, dementia, menopausal symptoms, skincare, anti-aging, tinnitus, graying hair, and preventing hair loss. You can eat it with rice, stir-fried beans, or stir-fried. If necessary, you can see good effects by making black bean soy milk on an empty stomach in the morning. Products sold on the market are too low in sugar content and have a high sugar content, so I do not recommend them. Yongcheonhyeol is a representative acupuncture point that preserves the energy of the kidneys, or innate nature. It is the place where the soles of the groom’s feet were hit on the first night, and it is the place where ancient scholars would hit their fists while sitting cross-legged and reading a book.
