The efficacy of black fungus

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 is known as "the best meat in vegetarian food". In addition, it has a very high content of vitamin E, which is a good 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 beauty and blood supplementation and prevention of iron deficiency anemia.

2. Lose weight, clear the intestines and prevent stones

Black fungus is rich in cellulose and a special plant collagen, which can promote gastrointestinal motility, prevent constipation, and facilitate the timely removal and excretion of toxic substances in the stool. It is also beneficial for the dissolution of endogenous foreign bodies such as gallstones and kidney stones. For those with initial cholecystitis and stones, eating black fungus 1-2 times a day can relieve symptoms such as pain and nausea within 2-5 days.

3. Prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases

Black fungus contains vitamin K and rich minerals such as calcium and magnesium. It can reduce blood clots, prevent thrombosis and other diseases, and prevent and treat atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Black fungus has the effect of promoting blood circulation and anticoagulation. People with bleeding diseases should not eat it. Pregnant women should not eat too much. Normal people should eat 10-15g per day.

4. Eat more black fungus if your hair is gray

It is well known that graying of hair is related to mental stress and excessive worry. Bai Yaping, director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University, said that in addition to regulating emotions, in order to prevent and treat graying of hair, attention should be paid to increasing the intake of trace elements and nutrients that have the effect of blackening hair in diet to promote normal hair growth. Trace elements iron and copper are important elements that promote the synthesis of hair melanin. People with gray hair should eat more foods rich in these two elements, such as shellfish such as oysters and fresh scallops, nuts such as almonds, sunflower seeds, walnuts, peanuts, pine nuts, animal liver, kidney tissue, etc. There are also some foods that have the effect of blackening hair, such as black fungus, black sesame, black rice, seaweed, etc. Eating more foods rich in B vitamins, such as whole grains, beans, vegetables and fruits, is also helpful.
