Water chestnut: used as medicine, has a long history and has been used as medicine since ancient times. Chinese medicine believes that water chestnuts are sweet and cold in nature, and have the effects of clearing heat and eliminating phlegm, appetizing and digesting, promoting body fluids and moisturizing dryness, and soothing eyesight. Kelp has relatively high nutritional value and is known as "sea vegetables." In Japan, tofu with kelp is considered a magic medicine for immortality. According to statistics from the United Nations Health Organization, Japanese women hardly suffer from breast cancer, mainly because they eat more kelp. American women suffer from breast cancer more frequently, mainly because they eat less kelp and eat more meat and milk. According to statistics from relevant experts, the average prevalence rate of elderly people who consume kelp for many years is 5-8% lower, and their life expectancy increases by 4-8 years. "
