2. What are the functions of burdock?
(1) Moistening intestines and relaxing bowels is helpful to prevent cancer.
As we all know, constipation is that many toxins in the human body cannot be excreted. For example, long-term constipation will do great harm to health. Burdock root contains a lot of dietary fiber and enzymes, which can promote the peristalsis of large intestine and the growth of beneficial bacteria in large intestine. Therefore, eating burdock often is very beneficial to the improvement of constipation, and it takes effect quickly, which is beneficial to health and has a good effect on the prevention and treatment of hemorrhoids and rectal cancer.
In addition, there is an ultra-high content of carotene in the root of Arctium lappa L., that is, vitamin D, which can prevent the close combination of carcinogens and intracellular genetic materials, prevent the infinite proliferation and canceration of cells, and even make the tumor subside and reverse to normal cells.
(2) Reduce blood fat, lose weight and treat calculus.
Burdock root is rich in water-soluble dietary fiber and inulin, which can increase the excretion of cholesterol, block the anorectal circulation of cholesterol and interfere with the formation of small intestine particles, thus reducing the absorption of fat and achieving the purpose of reducing blood fat and losing weight. It can also absorb bile acids and increase the excretion of bile salts and cholesterol, so it has the effect of preventing and treating gallstones.
(3) lowering blood pressure
The main cause of hypertension is high sodium content. Dietary fiber in burdock root can adsorb sodium and excrete it with feces, reducing the content of sodium in the body. The calcium content in burdock root is the highest among root vegetables, and calcium can pour sodium into urine and excrete it. Protein in the root of Arctium lappa can make blood vessels elastic, and can separate sodium from cells and excrete it. Arctiin in the root of Arctium lappa has the functions of dilating blood vessels and lowering blood pressure.

The occurrence and development of diabetes is closely related to the absorption and intake of dietary fiber. High fiber food (such as burdock root) is beneficial to the blood sugar control of diabetic patients, which can obviously improve blood sugar fluctuation and help to lower blood sugar. Therefore, burdock root is suitable for diabetic patients to eat for a long time.

Burdock and vegetable soup therapy originated from Mr Li Shihe. Mr. Li Shihe's brother and father both died of cancer, and he himself suffered from cancer. Although he had an operation, the cancer spread to his lungs. At this point, I can no longer believe in modern medicine, so I have been studying 1500 kinds of natural herbs while fighting the disease. Many animals were sacrificed during the research. Based on the three prerequisites of human cultivation and health care, preventing aging and not getting sick, it took 30 years to successfully find the secret recipe for treating various diseases-vegetable soup and brown rice tea, without side effects. This should provide a healthy brain, an active and young body for people of all ages. From the current medical point of view, it is difficult to imagine the following practical effects:

Its carotene content is 1 10 times that of carrot, ranking second among vegetables. Among tuberous plants, protein, calcium and plant fiber are the most abundant. Plant fiber helps to remove the garbage in the body, and burdock contains ingredients to prevent cancer and eliminate carcinogens. In addition, burdock also has the function of lowering blood pressure and improving hyperlipidemia, diabetes, rheumatism, sexual dysfunction and obesity.
As early as Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica, it was recorded in detail that burdock can "dredge the twelve meridians, dispel pathogenic factors of five internal organs" and "strengthen the body and prolong life", that is to say, frequent consumption of burdock can reduce weight and resist aging. According to scientific detection, burdock is rich in water, protein, fat, sugar, vitamins A, B 1, C, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron and other minerals and dietary fiber, which has obvious curative effects on diabetes, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, constipation and hepatotoxicity. It can remove the garbage in the body, improve the circulation in the body and promote metabolism, and is known as the best blood clearing agent in nature. In particular, burdock contains a very special nutrient called "inulin", which is an arginine that can promote the secretion of sex hormones, so it is regarded as a food that contributes to the development of human bones and muscles, enhances physical strength and strengthens yang, and is especially suitable for diabetics. In addition, the fiber of burdock can stimulate the peristalsis of large intestine, help defecation, reduce cholesterol in the body, reduce the accumulation of toxins and wastes in the body, and achieve the effect of preventing stroke, gastric cancer and uterine cancer.
