Superfoods & Tonics 食补·养生饮 early evidence
What the evidence says:
银耳 (tremella) is rich in soluble fibre and polysaccharides studied for skin hydration; with pear + 百合 it is the classic autumn "moistening" tonic for dry throat, cough and skin. Soothing and food-safe.

Why it works

The soluble fibre + polysaccharides are the actives — long, slow simmering releases them.

Classical source

A beloved yin-nourishing dessert soup — "the poor man's bird's nest".
