My family raises sea cucumbers themselves. At least I can guarantee that sea cucumber is not a marketing scam, and sea cucumber farming is very risky. A few years ago, the seaside was affected and the rainfall increased sharply. There are no sea cucumbers at home, and even the dead bodies are not fished at home, so we have to raise them again. This year, the first batch of finished sea cucumbers was produced after the disaster. Even without this situation, there are many factors that lead to the low survival rate of sea cucumbers, at least compared with chickens, ducks and fish.

In addition, the demand of government agencies for food and drinks also makes the number of sea cucumbers flowing into the people's market limited, so the price remains high. However, in recent years, due to the country's vigorous anti-corruption, the market of products including sea cucumber has changed, and the price has been greatly reduced.

As for the nutritional value, in fact, you can say that even if you don't eat sea cucumber, you can eat more common foods such as eggs or meat, but the ratio of cholesterol, blood lipid and blood sugar is still very different. Seafood is superior to meat products on land in this respect. In addition, when you are filial to your parents, your parents feel absolutely different when you buy two catties of eggs, two fish or two boxes of granules from the supermarket and give chickens and ducks raised by sea cucumbers to farmers.
