Chinese herbal soup with fig and longan fruits

These days are so warm and sticky. The Chinese believe that a good pot of herbal soup will help to regulate the body temperature and put the yin and yang back to balance. Was browsing through all the herbal soup in a medical hall that they now pre-packed into convenient packages with different functions to suit your needs. Found this mix of herbs with dried fig and longan fruits. Boiled for 2 hours in my crock pot and the taste is really delicious.
The health benefits of figs include treatment of constipation, indeigestion, piles, diabetes, cough, bronchitis and asthma.
