Lotus root is rich in starch, protein, dietary fiber and other ingredients. Eating lotus root in moderation has the effects of stimulating appetite, invigorating spleen and invigorating qi and blood. Lotus root is not only a delicious food, but also a medicinal material. In clinic, taking lotus root as medicine also has a good effect on treating frozen feet and phlegm fever.
Although lotus root tastes fresh and crisp and has very rich nutritional value, it still has side effects if it is eaten too much. Excessive consumption of lotus root will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach, resulting in spleen and stomach deficiency, and in severe cases, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, diarrhea and other symptoms will occur. Although lotus root is good, it should be eaten in moderation according to its own situation in daily life.
