In the midsummer, it is easy to get angry. Luffa is a good dish that has the effects of clearing away heat, purging fire, cooling blood and detoxifying. In addition, it can make the qi and blood flow smoothly and has a therapeutic effect on women's menstrual disorders.

Irregular menstruation in women is related to blood obstruction, which is manifested by irregular menstrual periods and cycles, abnormal menstrual flow, and physical discomfort during menstruation. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that loofah is mild in nature and sweet in taste, and has the effects of dredging meridians, promoting blood circulation, cooling blood and detoxifying, so it is often used to treat gynecological diseases. In addition to being used for cooking and making soup, ancient prescriptions record that burning old loofah into charcoal, grinding it into powder, and taking it with warm wine are very effective in treating amenorrhea and abdominal pain during menstruation in women.

Another important reason why loofah is suitable for women is that it has the effect of moisturizing and beautifying the skin. Long-term consumption can eliminate freckles, whiten and remove wrinkles; rubbing the face with loofah juice can also make people's skin smoother and more delicate, and it also has an anti-inflammatory effect.

When cooking loofah, you should try to use light and low-oil ingredients, add starch, and use MSG or pepper to enhance the flavor to keep its tender and refreshing characteristics. In addition, it is best to peel it when eating.

After watching it, I think you will know that it is not good-looking for a man to look like a woman.

The nature and flavor of loofah in traditional Chinese medicine: cool in nature, sweet in taste; enters the lung and liver meridians. The nature and flavor of loofah have a great relationship with the meridians it enters? It has a cool nature and taste, and enters the liver meridian. In traditional Chinese medicine, the liver meridian passes through the genitals. So it is not unreasonable to say that men cannot eat loofah.

The English name of loofah is Luffacylindrica (L.) Roem. Its effects: clearing away heat and resolving phlegm, cooling blood and detoxifying, relieving summer heat and relieving restlessness, and promoting menstruation. It is mainly used to treat fever, thirst, phlegm, cough, intestinal wind, hemorrhoids, ulcers, swelling, and women's milk retention. Do not take it if you have spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, or diarrhea.

Origin and introduction of loofah: The origin of loofah is in Southeast Asia, and it was introduced to my country in the Ming Dynasty. Loofah has a strong root system, vine-like stems, five ridges, green color, and luxuriant growth of the main vine and side vines. The stem nodes have branched tendrils and are prone to adventitious roots. The leaves are palmate or heart-shaped and covered with hairs. The fruit of ordinary loofah is short cylindrical or long rod-shaped, with a rough surface and several dark green longitudinal grooves. The fruit of ribbed loofah is rod-shaped, with a green and wrinkled epidermis, 7 ridges, and green or dark green. The seeds are oval, the seed skin of ordinary loofah is thin and smooth, with wing-like edges, black, white or grayish white; the seed skin of ribbed loofah is thick and wrinkled, and black. So, does Huang Yingli think that the appearance of the loofah is a bit like a human? Also, the flesh of the loofah is white and soft, so people are afraid of impotence after eating it. Some people also say that because the flesh of the loofah is like dried spongy bodies, it reminds people of the body's spongy bodies, so the saying that what you eat will "replenish" what you want has been passed down. In fact, it is not entirely true that what you eat will "replenish" what you want.

Some people say that celery can kill sperm, and leeks can enhance male potency. Leeks are cut again and again and remain very hard and firm, so they are known as the poor man's Viagra.

However, true organic diseases rarely have anything to do with diet, so don't listen to rumors.

Luffa juice can make the skin smooth and delicate, anti-aging, remove spots and acne, whiten the skin, and also has anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, luffa juice is known as "beauty water".

In the above article we introduced a common vegetable, that is loofah. We know that loofah is not only delicious but also rich in nutrients. Eating loofah often is good for our health, but men should limit their consumption of loofah and not eat too much.
