Sa tradisyonal na Chinese food therapy
Tradisyonal na konteksto, hindi payong medikal. Ito ang pananaw sa sangkap sa klasikal na food-therapy cooking — hindi claim sa paggamot.
Lotus seed is traditionally classed as sweet, slightly astringent and neutral, with classical associations to the Spleen, Kidney and Heart. In food therapy it is chosen as a calm, balanced ingredient in nourishing broths.
Red lotus seeds are common in savoury soups; white varieties appear in sweet soups and desserts. Soak dried seeds before a long simmer if you want them fully soft.
