Everyone knows that ginseng has high nutritional value. Comparing Pueraria lobata to "Asian ginseng" also shows that the value of Pueraria lobata is quite high to a certain extent. Many people don't understand why the word "Asia" is added. This has to start with the relevant pharmacopoeias of Zhang Zhongjing in the Han Dynasty and Li Shizhen in the Ming Dynasty, which both recorded the related value of Pueraria lobata; and these two dynasties were famous in the East and even the whole world. The influence is relatively large, so the world praises Kudzu as "Asian ginseng".
This is a comparative description method, but it is not an exaggeration at all. Pueraria lobata contains relatively high amounts of amino acids, iron, calcium and other trace elements, and is very edible. Since the value of kudzu is so good, can it be cultivated artificially? It is indeed possible, but the overall price is not as impressive as wild kudzu. Wild kudzu has very good resistance to stress and is also resistant to barrenness. Wild kudzu is divided into two types: kudzu and kudzu
Wild kudzu is divided into two kinds: kudzu and kudzu. Although kudzu can be made into kudzu powder, its powder content is very low. Except in years of famine, people will not dig up kudzu and grind it into powder. Kudzu contains a lot of powder and is very popular among people.
Wild kudzu grows on the hillside, and its vines grow and wrap around the surrounding trees, especially the kudzu, which is overwhelming and all over the mountains and plains. Kudzu leaves will fall when they grow old and can be used as feed for pigs. Due to its low powder content, no one digs this kind of kudzu to get the powder in normal years.
Wash the powder in clean water, then filter, and then sink it. After one night, the arrowroot powder sinks, then gently pour out the water, and the arrowroot powder is ready. If you can get two or three ounces of powder in a day, you will be very satisfied. Due to the changes in the ecological environment, the kudzu planted in the early years naturally grew and developed to a large number.
Due to the changes in the ecological environment, the kudzu planted in the early years grew naturally and developed to a large number. The folks are digging for kudzu powder again. But what we dig is the cultivated "house kudzu", and no one digs the wild kudzu anymore. The arrowroot powder they produce is mainly sold in the market. The market is very good and the price is very expensive. Therefore, it becomes part of the economic income.
It is said that arrowroot powder has high nutritional value. Nowadays, many people in the city buy it for consumption. What nutritional value it has is not something that we young people can understand. That is the specialty of nutritionists.
