BLACK
FOOD STUFFS
Black food stuffs have long been
hailed by Chinese
to
be valuable
for
good
health and
enhancing
stamina
-
recent findings tend
to
endorse such
claims.
Black fungus
contains
beta-carotene, vitamins
81, 82,
C,
potassium, sodium,
calcium,
magnesium, phorsphorus and abun-
dant iron.
lt
mixes very well with
and
enhances
the flavour
of
other
vegetables
or
meat.
lt was considered
a good tonic and useful
for
piles and
the stomach.
Recent
findings confirm
a beneficial suppressive effect
on
the
easy clotting
of platelets
-
thrombosis
or
abnormal
clotting
of
blood
is
prevented. Black sesame seeds
had,
for
a
long time, been hailed
as a
choice
tonic
for
good
health.
The
seeds were
considered to
promote
digestion.
lt
is
also
a
mild laxative.
Black
dates
contain various vitamins,
calcium,
phorsphorus
and
iron; they
were
used
to
treat diabetes and anxiety. Laver has
abundant vitamin
A,
beta-carotene,
inorganic
salts,
iodine, bromine,
etc. lt
is a diuretic and mucolytic
(resolve
phlegm). Some oversea reports
even
found
it
to
be useful
for breast cancer
prevention. Others like black
beans
(rich in iron), sea cucumber (was used
for
diabetes)
shitaki
mushroom
(enhances immunity) are also good
for
the
health.
