Modern medicine has proved that sea cucumber contains more than 50 kinds of nutrients beneficial to human physiological activities, among which protein is extremely high, including 18 amino acids, taurine, chondroitin sulfate, sea cucumber mucopolysaccharide, calcium, phosphorus, iron, iodine, zinc, selenium, vanadium, manganese and vitamin B 1, B2, nicotinic acid, etc. Of the 18 amino acids, 8 are essential amino acids that the human body cannot synthesize. In the eyes of Chinese people, the aphrodisiac function of sea cucumber is particularly prominent. This is because amino acids are the basic substances that constitute protein and the main material basis of human life activities. Among them, sea cucumber has the richest arginine content, so it is called "arginine monopoly". As we all know, arginine is the main component of male sperm cells and the main raw material for synthesizing human collagen, which can promote the regeneration of body cells and the repair of damaged bodies, improve human immune function and prolong life. Therefore, ancient doctors called sea cucumber "tonifying kidney meridian, benefiting essence, eliminating flaccidity, promoting fluid production, absorbing urine, strengthening yang, and generating hundreds of pulses." (compendium of materia medica). Sea cucumbers from different sea areas and families also have different nutritional and medicinal values. In 1980s, Chinese scholars extracted a fucose-containing glycosaminoglycan from the body wall of sea cucumber, that is, sea cucumber glycosaminoglycan (hGAG). When studying the anti-tumor effect of hGAG, it is found that HGAG can cause bleeding in experimental animals, which makes people gradually realize its anticoagulant effect. The researchers used hGAG to treat normal people and patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular thrombotic diseases, and found that HGAG has the function of anticoagulation, reducing blood viscosity and blood lipid, which is conducive to improving the activity of anticoagulant system and delaying thrombosis. It is worth mentioning that sea cucumber is a rare nutritional health food with high protein, low fat, low sugar and no cholesterol. Hundreds of millions of years of historical evolution, benthic reefs, the habit of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, the law of biological evolution of natural selection and survival of the fittest have accumulated extremely rich nutritional components in sea cucumbers, forming a nearly perfect, balanced and reasonable nutritional structure, which has been recognized by people since ancient times. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that medicine and food are homologous. Eating sea cucumber will become the first choice for modern people to keep healthy, nourish the body and prolong life.
