Coral Weed
In our visit to an old friend's house, she introduced to us this product for strengthening of the joints! (If you see an 82yr old man doing squats after taking this for a couple of weeks, when previously he has problems walking about... you know that this stuff works!)

Turns out that its actually dried up in this tiny packet... so you've gotta soak it in water for about 3hrs....

and it grew so much that it almost overflowed the pot!

Gotta double boil it with some rock sugar for taste and consume it like bird's nest when its hot. It turns into agar when its cooled hee...
Let's see if I still hear the clicking sound in my knee after trying this stuff out....
