White radish is rich in calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron, vitamin A, vitamin B and so on. Especially, the content of vitamin C is very high, which makes its anti-oxidation and anti-cell aging effect very obvious. In addition, white radish contains a lot of digestive enzyme starch, which can prevent hyperacidity and promote digestive function, and is suitable for patients with gastritis. Carrots are not only rich in inorganic salts such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus and iron, but also rich in carotene. Carotene can be converted into vitamin A by the small intestine wall, which can relieve fatigue for people who use their eyes too much and often stay up late.
However, if carrots and white radishes are made into dishes together, although red and white look beautiful, they are actually not scientific. Because carrots contain a substance called proteolytic enzyme, it will destroy the extremely high vitamin C in white radish. In addition, although carrots are called "the treasure house of vitamin A", vitamin A is a fat-soluble substance. Only cooking with edible oil or meat can be fully absorbed by the human body. So carrots are not suitable for raw food. Cooking method, it is better to stew carrots in a pressure cooker. Because the contact between carrot and air is reduced, the preservation rate of β -carotene can reach 97%, and the digestion and absorption rate in the body can reach 90%.

Moreover, it is freezing in winter, the human skin is in a state of contraction, and the yang in the human body is relatively strong. At this time, because people's outdoor activities are reduced, the chances of sweating and heat dissipation are reduced, and they often eat a lot of hot food such as mutton because of the cold, which is easy to cause excessive internal heat, indigestion and qi stagnation. If you eat some cool radish in moderation, you can not only cool off the summer heat, but also regulate qi, eliminate food stagnation and guide stagnation.
1, carrot: rich in β-carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in the small intestine. Vitamin A has a protective effect on skin epidermis. Only when β -carotene is dissolved in oil can it be converted into vitamin A and absorbed by human body. So carrots should be fried in oil, or cut into pieces, seasoned and stewed with meat.
