2. Figs are rich in amino acids, 1.0% in fresh fruits and 5.3% in dried fruits; 18 species have been discovered so far. Not only does it have high utilization value because it contains all 8 essential amino acids for the human body, but it also has the highest content of aspartic acid (1.9% dry weight), which is very effective in fighting leukemia, restoring physical strength, and eliminating fatigue. Therefore, a fig drink is used as a "coffee substitute" abroad.
3. The dry matter content of figs is very high, 14-20% for fresh fruits and more than 70% for dried fruits. Among them, the glucose content that can be directly absorbed and utilized by the human body accounts for 34.3% (dry weight), fructose accounts for 31.2% (dry weight), and sucrose only accounts for 7.82% (dry weight). Therefore, the calories are low and it is called low-calorie food in Japan. Domestic medical research has proven that it is a weight loss health food.
4. Figs contain polysaccharides, accounting for 6.49% (dry weight), mainly arabinose and galactose, which have a certain effect in anti-aging.
5. Figs contain a variety of vitamins, especially carotene, which is 30mg/100g for fresh fruits and 70mg/100g for dried fruits, ranking higher than peaches, grapes, plums, pears, citrus, and persimmons. above.
6. Figs contain a large amount of inorganic elements that are beneficial to the human body, but do not contain inorganic elements such as Co, Cd, Pb, etc. that are easily carcinogenic. It has a good effect on enhancing the body's health and anti-cancer ability.
7. The fruits, branches and leaves of figs are rich in enzymes, with the most protein-degrading enzymes, followed by lipase, amylase, superoxide disidase (SOD), etc. The fruits are used as Fruit after meals helps with good digestion. In recent years, major breakthroughs have been made in using figs to extract SOD enzyme and develop high-quality cosmetics, doubling the value of figs.
8. Figs are rich in dietary fiber. The pectin and hemicellulose in them can absorb a variety of chemical substances after absorbing water and swelling, so that various harmful substances in the intestines are adsorbed and excreted, purifying the intestines and promoting beneficial effects. The reproduction of fungi in the intestines can inhibit the rise in blood sugar, maintain normal cholesterol levels, and eliminate carcinogens.
9. Figs also contain acids such as malic acid, oxalic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, malonic acid, pyrrolidine carboxylic acid, shikimic acid, quinic acid, and glyceric acid. Flavonoids, rutinose, aldose, resins, etc. As well as benzaldehyde, furanocoumarolide, psoralen, bergamot lactone and other ingredients that have certain effects on cancer suppression.
* Ingredients:
Fig, also known as Tianzi, Asparagus, Dense fruit, milk berry, etc., is a plant of the Moraceae family. Figs are both a fresh fruit and a traditional Chinese medicinal material.

In addition, it also contains citric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, propanoacetic acid, oxalic acid, quinic acid, lipase, protease and various amino acids necessary for the human body.
* Figs are a natural health food.
1. Strengthen the spleen, eliminate food, moisturize the intestines and relieve constipation. Figs contain malic acid, citric acid, lipase, protease, hydrolase, etc., which can help the human body digest food and promote appetite. Because they contain a variety of lipids, they have a laxative effect.
2. Lower blood lipids and blood pressure. The lipase and hydrolase contained in figs have the function of lowering blood lipids and decomposing blood lipids. Therefore, it can lower blood lipids and reduce fat deposition in blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure and preventing coronary heart disease.
3. Soothe the throat and reduce swelling.
Figs contain citric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, propanoic acid, oxalic acid, quinic acid and other substances, which have anti-inflammatory and swelling properties and can relieve sore throat and reduce swelling.
4. Supplement nutrition. Figs contain a large amount of sugars, lipids, proteins, cellulose, vitamins, inorganic salts and essential amino acids, which can effectively supplement the body's nutrients and enhance the body's disease resistance.
5. Prevent and fight cancer. The serum of unripe fruits contains active ingredients such as psoralen and bergamot lactone, and an aromatic substance "benzaldehyde" can be extracted from the juice of mature fruits. Both of them have anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects. Prevent the occurrence of liver cancer, lung cancer, and gastric cancer, delay the development of transplanted adenocarcinoma, and lymphosarcoma and promote their regression.
