TCM Healthcare Jazz Chant-Part One

TCM Healthcare Jazz Chant Part One

TCM Healthcare Jazz Chant:

 

Chill climbs up from feet, illness sneaks into a mouth.

Drink less alcohol, illness detours.

Drink tea with uncleansed cups, the death rushes to get you.

Drinking cool boiled water will lead you to a good health.

Drinking water with an empty stomach, illness climbs away.

Eating Oct. aubergines will starve the medics.

Garlic is a treasure for building up immunity.

Having 3 ginger slices in the morning like having ginseng soups.

Having medication without a good diet, doctors will rush to you.

Having noodles with plenty of soups keeps a doctor away.

Low immunity bullies human bodies, and vice versa.

Making tea with fresh water makes you live to over one hundred.

No greens for three days, seeing stars dizzily.

No harm eating no meat, no good having no soups.

One cigarette after every meal is extremely harmful.

People say bitter-gourds bitter, I say bitter-gourds sweet.

Two apples a day, physical discomforts detour.

White lotus seed congee promises you a good night sleep.
