Wakame has high calcium content.
In Japan, wakame miso soup is also a very popular food, especially among Japanese elderly, who drink it almost every day. It turns out that wakame is rich in plant fiber. 5 grams of wakame contains two grams of plant fiber. These plant fibers are divided into water-soluble plant fiber and insoluble plant fiber.
Water-soluble plant fiber is rich in the polysaccharide component alginic acid. Alginic acid can combine with salts in other foods to promote the excretion of salts from the body and unknowingly reduce the body's response to salt. Salt absorption.
As we all know, as the elderly age, their taste buds will gradually become dull, and they may consume excessive amounts of salt without knowing it. If you can drink a bowl of wakame miso soup every day, it can not only reduce the absorption of salt, but also lower blood pressure and promote health. It really kills multiple birds with one stone.
