In Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is a saying: "A hundred-year-old Chenpi is as valuable as a thousand-year-old ginseng." In daily life, many people are accustomed to using Chenpi to make tea or using it as a seasoning for soups.

The first benefit is drying dampness and resolving phlegm. Chenpi is warm in nature and possesses the efficacy of drying dampness and transforming phlegm. If you have heavy damp-phlegm in the body, characterized by excessive phlegm and coughing, you can frequently use Chenpi to find relief.

Second is relieving stagnation. Chenpi (dried tangerine peel) can clear pent-up emotional tension and stagnant "Qi." After drinking it, you may burp or pass gas, which helps expel turbid air from the body, making you feel much more comfortable.

Third is strengthening the spleen and whetting the appetite. When brewed, it first offers a fresh fragrance followed by a subtle bitterness. Once it enters the digestive system, it helps regulate Qi and invigorate the spleen, opening up the appetite and thereby relieving symptoms like poor appetite and abdominal bloating.

However, using it as a tea substitute is only a supplementary health practice and should not be used as a medical treatment. If symptoms are severe, please seek medical attention promptly.
