Let me talk about the top ten effects of the carrots I use:

Radish Efficacy 1: Anti-cancer and anti-cancer The American Cancer Research Institute reported that according to the analysis of tumor epidemiology in various countries, radish, cabbage and other cruciferous vegetables are the best anti-cancer and anti-cancer foods among all foods. Among them, it is against lung cancer. , Gastric cancer, liver cancer, laryngeal cancer, esophageal cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, breast cancer and bladder cancer have the most obvious preventive effects. The reason why carrots can fight cancer and prevent cancer is because it contains some special ingredients as follows: 1. Sulforaphane, according to the research of Johns Hopkins College of Medicine in the United States, carrots also contain a phytochemical sulforaphane , It is a biologically active compound found in many cruciferous vegetables. Sulforaphane may be the strongest and most effective of all natural anti-cancer substances found so far. It can stimulate cells to produce higher type II amphibians (beneficial vesicles), and make cells form a membrane that resists the erosion of foreign carcinogens. 2. Vitamin A, carrots contain a large amount of vitamin A, which is an essential substance to maintain the intercellular substance, and it plays a role in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells. The medical circles in the United States and Japan reported that the vitamin A in carrots can re-convert the formed cancer cells into normal cells. 3. Glucoamylase, red radish contains a kind of glucoamylase, which can decompose nitrosamines in food, which can greatly reduce the carcinogenic effect of this substance. 4. There are more lignin in lignin and carrots, which can increase the vitality of macrophages in the body to eat cancer cells by two to four times. 5. Thioraphane, British scientists have discovered that carrots contain an anti-cancer compound sulforaphane, which can activate the body's defense function.

Big red radish also has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on gallstones and kidney stones. In addition, carrots are rich in potassium, which is several times or even dozens of times that of other radishes. It is well known that potassium can adjust the appropriate osmotic pressure in cells and the acid-base balance of body fluids, and participate in the metabolism of sugar and protein in cells, which is very beneficial to the regulation of blood uric acid level in patients with gout.

The third effect of radish: lowering blood pressure.

Mustard oil, dietary fiber and other beneficial ingredients, so raw carrots after a meal can quickly promote digestion, relieve gastric acid and bloating, and have a good therapeutic effect on gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer.

Animal experiments have fully proved that the extract of radish has the effect of anti-viral infection. At the same time, radish contains fiber lignin, which can improve the function of macrophages to swallow foreign bodies and necrotic cells, thereby enhancing the body's ability to resist viruses. Studies have confirmed that: raw red radish has the strongest ability to inhibit viruses, followed by green radish, and white radish again. Cooked radish has lost its interferon-inducing effect after high-temperature steaming. Therefore, it is best to eat raw radish with the skin after washing. Juicing is a wise way to eat it.
