Pigskin has high nutritional value. Every 100g pigskin contains 26.4g of protein, 22.7g of fat and 4g of sugar.
The benefits of eating pigskin:
It can prevent aging and reduce wrinkles.
People's wrinkles are mainly due to the dysfunction of cell water storage in human body, and the amount of water bound by cells is obviously reduced, while collagen can promote cell water storage. Protein, which is not contained in meat skin, is mainly composed of collagen and elastin, so eating meat skin often can restore cells with low water storage function and reduce wrinkles.
Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage, listed the prescription of pigskin in Treatise on Febrile Diseases, pointing out that pigskin has the function of "nourishing blood and moistening skin" and has been used for generations.
