The efficacy, storage methods and dietary taboos of peas

I heard that peas are not good for the general public. We need to check it out in the next few days. I am not like now. I need to clean the large intestine.

pea

Also known as honey beans and green beans, it belongs to the legume family. It originated in western Asia, the Mediterranean region, Ethiopia, and western Asia Minor. It has a cultivation history of more than 2,000 years in my country. It is now cultivated in various places. The main production areas include more than ten provinces and regions such as Sichuan, Henan, Hubei, Jiangsu, and Qinghai.

Peas can be divided into three varieties according to plant shape: soft pod, grain-like, and dwarf peas; they can also be divided into soft pod and hard pod peas according to the presence and thickness of the leathery membrane in the pod shell; they can also be divided into white and purple (red) peas according to flower color. The shape of pea seeds varies depending on the variety, most of which are spherical, but there are also elliptical, oblate, concave, and wrinkled shapes. The colors include yellow-white, green, red, rose, brown, black, etc.

Peas are divided into two categories: grain peas and vegetable peas. They can be fried as vegetables, and the seeds can be ground into pea flour for consumption after they mature. Because peas are round and bright green, they are very beautiful, and are often used as side dishes to add color to dishes and stimulate appetite. Moreover, peas are different from ordinary vegetables. The substances they contain, such as gibberellic acid, gibberellin and phytolectin, have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory functions and enhance metabolism.
