1. Chicken has many functions in treating diseases. First of all, it can replenish essence and marrow, which can make people get great nourishment after fatigue and is also very beneficial to our five internal organs.

Some male friends may have insufficient kidney essence due to overwork, which will cause some prostate problems and symptoms of deafness. If symptoms are found, eating more chicken will help alleviate these symptoms.
2. There are red meat and white meat in modern nutrition. For example, pork, cattle, sheep and other meats belong to red meat, while poultry and seafood belong to white meat. Comparatively speaking, the nutritional value of white meat is higher than that of red meat. And chicken is the representative of white meat. Chicken is rich in taurine, which can enhance human digestion, resist oxidation and detoxify, and also has a very good effect on enhancing human immunity.
3. Modern nutrition also believes that although they are all chicken, the difference of chicken is different regardless of its nutritional value. For example, chicken breast is low in fat and high in vitamins. Eating chicken breast often helps to lower cholesterol. Chicken wings are high in fat, so don't eat them if you want to lose weight by inspiration. Also, people with high cholesterol can eat chicken breast, but never eat chicken liver, because chicken liver has high cholesterol content.
I hope everyone can treat the way of eating chicken correctly in their daily life, and don't use unscientific ideas to imagine what they think is right. In daily life, especially for patients with weak health, it is very important to eat some chicken properly to increase nutritional support.
