Improve your metabolism! Asparagus is great for weight loss

Asparagus is native to southern Europe and is a negative ingredient that grows facing the sun. White asparagus is grown in the soil and is therefore considered a neutral ingredient. In traditional Chinese medicine, it has the effect of removing excess heat from the body, improving stomach function and water metabolism. In addition to improving liver function and eliminating fatigue, it also has the effect of quenching thirst.

Asparagus is rich in aspartic acid, an amino acid that can increase metabolism and help with weight loss. The tip of the bamboo shoot contains rutin, which can strengthen capillaries, prevent bleeding, and also prevent high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis.

In addition, asparagus contains a lot of beta-carotene, vitamin E, and vitamin C, and its antioxidant effect can help prevent arteriosclerosis, aging, and the incidence of cancer.

[Cooking Tips] Cooking with oil improves absorption rate

Blanching asparagus will damage the water-soluble vitamins, so it is recommended to stir-fry it with oil. Cooking with oil can promote the absorption of beta-carotene. People with a cold constitution can use sesame oil instead of salad oil.
