What is the medicinal value of grapefruit?

Pomelo is a fruit with a slightly fragrant, sweet and sour taste. It is very nutritious and has high medicinal value, and is deeply loved by people. In the medical field, grapefruit is recognized as a fruit with excellent therapeutic value. In addition, grapefruit peel also has very good medicinal value. There are many kinds of grapefruit, such as fine grapefruit and golden grapefruit. For the specific medicinal value of grapefruit, please see the introduction below.

The grapefruit peel used to treat frostbite must be dried. Boil the dried grapefruit peel in water and use the water to hot compress the frostbitten area when the water becomes very thick. But be careful not to apply the medicine when frostbite is damaged. At the same time, pay attention to the "two persistences". First, stick to using this method of hot compress for the entire winter. Even if the frostbite is relieved after a period of hot compress, do not give up halfway. Second, pay attention to the problems of hot compress. When you first start applying heat, don't use a towel that's too hot. After the frostbitten area has adapted, the temperature should be gradually increased. When the temperature reaches the highest point, the towel should be taken out of the pot and applied directly to the hot compress. By adhering to these two points, you can promote recovery from frostbite and avoid recurrence next winter.

Because grapefruit peel has the effect of resolving phlegm and relieving cough, many people will suffer from cough and phlegm in winter, so it can be combined with Sichuan Fritillaria for symptomatic treatment. Wash a pomelo peel, peel off the inner white flesh, chop the peel, add 10 grams of Fritillaria cirrhosa, pour in appropriate amount of honey, steam it in a pot, then store it in a sealed container. Take every morning and evening. But it should be noted that the selected pomelo peel should be clean and smooth, dense in texture, and have a strong fragrant smell. Damaged and fermented pomelo peel cannot be eaten. The grapefruit peel and Fritillaria cirrhosa paste is very effective for senile cough and asthma, as well as people with yin deficiency who often suffer from dry mouth and hot hands and feet.

In fact, grapefruit has very good beauty benefits. It is rich in protein, organic acids, vitamins, and trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, etc. These nutrients are very useful for skin care and can also improve acne on the face. Grapefruit is rich in vitamin P, which can promote skin tissue repair. Women who love beauty may wish to eat more grapefruit.
