Mulberry in traditional Chinese medicine is considered to have a sweet and sour taste, cold nature, and the effects of nourishing the liver and kidney, nourishing blood and generating fluids, nourishing yin and extinguishing wind, moistening the intestines and relieving constipation, effectively preventing constipation. Modern research also believes that mulberries can regulate the body’s immune function, promote the growth of blood cells, lower blood lipids, protect the liver, and have various other effects.
Those with habitual constipation can take an appropriate amount of fresh mulberries, wash them, squeeze the juice, and take 15 milliliters each time. Pomegranate juice has been proven by an Israeli research institute that drinking 100 milliliters of pomegranate juice every day for two weeks can slow down the oxidation process by 40% and reduce the deposited oxidized cholesterol. Even after stopping consumption, this remarkable effect will continue for a month.
Pomegranate juice is more effective than red wine, tomato juice, vitamin E, and other antioxidant juices, being one of the important substances to remove cardiovascular toxins. Pomegranate juice has much higher polyphenol content than green tea, making it a “superstar” in anti-aging and cancer prevention.
