Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) developed over thousands of years of trial, explorations, and healthcare for the longest surviving civilization on our planet. TCM takes the concept of holism as its fundamental principle: everything is interconnected, the outside with the inside, man with nature, interrelatedness of bodily organs, food as medicine, emotion as influencing physical health, and other similar concepts. TCM also emphasizes balance: the need for rest, just as for work; the need for cool, just as for warmth.

Coix seed
Coix Seed, also commonly called Jobs Tears, may be harder to find than
cereal or oatmeal, but are much better for you. Jobs Tears have far less fastacting carbohydrates and thus are good for the slow-carb diet; likewise
they aid weight control.
They combat water retention that can lead to swollen joints, a poorly
functioning digestive system, weight gain, mucous-filled cough and lack
of urine.
They are also believed to contain anti-cancer properties.
Jobs Tears should be soaked for about an hour, then boiled like other
whole grains into porridge, soup, or a nutty milk drink. I personally prefer
to cook them in less water so they stay a bit chewy and then sprinkle gouji
berries on top for a healthier breakfast.
In Korea, tea made from powdered Jobs Tears is drunk for beauty to
smooth the skin and enhance youthfulness.
