Or select fresh figs, cut them into small pieces, add them into the porridge when it is cooked, boil it for one or two more times and eat it, 1 dose per day.

Efficacy: Clears away heat, detoxifies, strengthens the stomach and cleanses the intestines.

Indications: Suitable for hoarseness due to lung heat, sore throat, carbuncle, scabies, chronic diarrhea, dysentery, or constipation, hemorrhoids, rectal prolapse, etc.

Explanation of the meaning of porridge: Fig, also known as natural fruit, Yingri fruit, Wenxian fruit, milk fruit and honey fruit, is the dried receptacle of the Moraceae plant fig. Because the male and female flowers are dioecious and hidden in the sac-like receptacle, only flowers can be seen from the outside but no fruits, hence the name fig.

Introduction to fig porridge

According to traditional Chinese medicine, figs are sweet and flat in nature, and enter the spleen and stomach meridians. They have the functions of strengthening the stomach and clearing the intestines, clearing away heat and detoxifying, and promoting lactation and reducing swelling. The Compendium of Materia Medica says that it "opens the appetite and stops diarrhea and dysentery". The Southern Yunnan Materia Medica says that it can be applied to "all unknown swellings, carbuncles, scabies, scabies, eczema, fish mouth and stool poison, milk knots, and pox sores". The Suixiju Diet says that it "clears heat and moisturizes the intestines". Whether figs are used fresh or aged, or taken internally or externally, or used as medicine or food, they are all top-grade.

Nutritional analysis shows that figs contain a variety of sugars (such as glucose, fructose, sucrose, etc.), organic acids (such as citric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid, etc.), a variety of enzymes (such as amylase, lipase, protease, etc.), vitamin C and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, etc. Cancer prevention and treatment researchers in Japan and Jiangsu, my country have found that fig milk contains an anti-cancer ingredient that can inhibit rat transplanted sarcoma, spontaneous breast cancer in mice, delay the development of adenocarcinoma, leukemia, lymphosarcoma, or degenerate them. It has obvious anti-cancer, anti-cancer and immune-enhancing effects. Therefore, it has become popular in the world in recent years, especially for the elderly, women, and children, and has become a best-selling health food. Commonly used figs are cooked into porridge and taken to improve the defense function of the cell immune system, strengthen the body, fight cancer and prevent cancer, and can also relieve cancer pain and the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cancer patients.

Note:

1. Fig leaves contain furanocoumarins. After fumigation, do not expose them to the sun to avoid photosensitivity to sunlight and photosensitivity dermatitis in the fumigated areas.

2. Because figs have strong adaptability and resistance, are not demanding on the growing environment, prefer warm, humid and sunny environments, and have a certain adsorption effect on toxic gases in heavily polluted chemical areas, figs that are close to pollution sources should not be eaten to avoid poisoning.
