[quote=\"ksme\"]A friend mentioned to me that once Girls have their menses, they don't grow in height anymore. Is it true? What about boys huh? when do they stop growing?

the nurse who came to my gal's school recently (rountine checking) said that too, which makes me worry of her height.

Oh, really? the nurse said that? maybe it has some truth to it then.

Actually I remember I stopped growing or grow very little after my menses come. That's why I thought maybe what my friend said is true.[/quote]ya, the nurse said something like that....
it slows down after menses ....but..but...i think it's still depends on individuality,
some of them grow at slower rate and at later stage.
as for my gal, i hope and believe she still can grow taller,
as her parents aren't short leh..... :lol:

Thanks! Btw, double boil with how many bowls of water? Also, reboil with same no. of bowls of water for 1 time, right? Thanks again.

I forgot already, but I think you double bowl it in that bowl of water that you use to soak it in the first place.

And yes, use back the same bowl the second time round.

Since someone mentioned about 田七，I remembered someone gave me this recipe many years ago. It's supposed to help a child grow taller.


田七一钱
泡参一钱
枸杞三钱
川穹两钱

Soak everything in a bowl for 1/2 hour.
Double boil for 3 hours.
Keep residue in fridge and reboil it the next day. No need to re-soak.

maid, what is the wt for 一钱 ??
why need to keep overnite, can't consume on the day itself??
or the residue is for seconding helping??

The 一钱 is the way the Chinese Medical Shops measure their stuff. Just show the man this recipe and he will pack accordingly for you, don't have to worry what or how much 一钱 is.

No, you read wrongly. Drink the soup after double-boiling it the first time. Then keep the residue in the fridge to use a second time the next day so as not to waste the herbs.

Maid, do you boil them in thermal pot, or slow cooker?

I am going to use my bigger thermal pot for that, or I might keep half the plant and use my cutie pot.

oh, great! :dancing:
