Day lily has the effect of calming the nerves, so it can prevent insomnia and relieve depression to a certain extent. People's emotions fluctuate greatly at different times of the year, and people's emotions are always inseparable from the influence of the environment, especially in spring, which is the high incidence of mental illness, especially depression and mania. Therefore, there is a folk saying that "cauliflower is yellow and idiot is busy".
Extended data:
Day lily is cold, easy to have loose bowels, easy to lose appetite and other people with weak spleen and stomach are not suitable for long-term consumption. In addition, fresh day lily contains colchicine, which is very toxic. After being absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, it will be oxidized into "colchicine" in the body, which is very toxic.
When eating fresh day lily, you should first blanch the fresh day lily with boiling water. The toxic components of the fresh day lily can be weakened or disappeared at a high temperature of 60℃, then soak it in clear water for more than two hours, take it out and wash it with clear water before frying, which can destroy colchicine. When eating dried day lily, it is also best to soak it in clear water or warm water for many times before eating.
