The effect of mung bean and kelp porridge

Kelp contains extremely high iodine, which is the main raw material for synthesizing thyroid hormone in the body. Regular consumption can make hair moisturized and black.

Kelp has certain medicinal value, because it contains a lot of iodine, which is the main substance synthesized by the thyroid gland. If the human body lacks iodine, it will suffer from "thick neck disease", that is, hypothyroidism. Therefore, kelp is the best food for people with hypothyroidism. Kelp also contains a lot of mannitol, which has the effect of diuresis and swelling, and can prevent and treat renal failure, senile edema, drug poisoning, etc. Mannitol works synergistically with iodine, potassium, niacin, etc., and has good effects on the prevention and treatment of arteriosclerosis, hypertension, chronic bronchitis, chronic hepatitis, anemia, edema and other diseases. The high-quality protein and unsaturated fatty acids in kelp have certain preventive and therapeutic effects on heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that kelp is salty and cold in nature, and has the effects of softening, dispersing, anti-inflammatory, calming asthma, promoting diuresis, removing fat and lowering blood pressure, and has a good effect on the prevention and treatment of silicosis.

Kelp colloid can promote the excretion of radioactive substances in the body along with feces, thereby reducing the accumulation of radioactive substances in the human body and reducing the chance of radiation diseases.
