What are the therapeutic effects of black fungus?

Fungus is a common guest on ordinary people's tables. It tastes delicious and is rich in protein, and is known as the "meat among vegetarians". Black fungus is rich in protein, and its protein content is comparable to that of animal food, so it is known as "meat among vegetarians". In addition, it contains very high vitamin E content, making it an excellent product for whitening skin. How much do you know about the health benefits of black fungus? Let’s learn together.

1. A good product for beauty care

Black fungus is rich in protein, and its protein content is comparable to that of animal food, so it has the reputation of "meat among vegetarians". In addition, it contains very high vitamin E content, which is an excellent product for whitening skin. The most important thing is that it has the highest iron content. When it comes to iron supplementation, it is generally believed that spinach, lean meat, and animal liver are rich in iron. In fact, black fungus has the highest iron content among all foods, which is more than 20 times that of spinach and more than 7 times that of pork liver. Therefore, it is a high-quality food source for nourishing the skin, replenishing blood, and preventing iron deficiency anemia.

2. Lose weight, clear the intestines and prevent stones

Black fungus is rich in cellulose and a special plant collagen. These two substances can promote gastrointestinal motility, prevent constipation, facilitate the timely removal and excretion of toxic substances in the feces, and help dissolve endogenous foreign bodies such as gallstones and kidney stones. For patients with new cholecystitis and stones, eat black fungus 1-2 times a day. Symptoms such as pain and nausea can be relieved within 2-5 days.

3. Prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases

Black fungus contains vitamin K and rich calcium, magnesium and other minerals, which can reduce blood clots, prevent the occurrence of thrombosis and other diseases, and has the effect of preventing and treating atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.

Unsuitable people: People with bleeding diseases or diarrhea should not eat it or eat less; pregnant women should not eat too much.

Avoid when purchasing: small and broken flowers, curled and thick ear petals or stiff lumps, wet and thin body, dark surface color, heavy texture, and gray or brown flowers are inferior. When purchasing black fungus, you should choose dry black fungus that is moderately large, light, black in color, has no stiff or curled ears, has a fresh fragrance, and is free of impurities. Black fungus should not be mixed with other debris. Take a proper amount of black fungus and chew it lightly. You should feel the fragrance. If it tastes astringent, it means it has been soaked in alum water. The sweet taste comes from being mixed with maltose water. If it has an alkaline taste, it means it has been soaked in alkaline water.

What are the benefits of eating black fungus? Of course, it also has the effect of clearing the stomach and intestines. Because black fungus contains more gelatin, it has a stronger adsorption capacity. And because the content of dietary fiber in black fungus is high, every 100 grams of black fungus contains 30 grams of dietary fiber. These characteristics can promote gastrointestinal motility, promote the excretion of cholesterol from the body, and ultimately achieve the effect of clearing the stomach and intestines.
