1. Purslane is an important medicine for treating bacillary dysentery. It can be used alone for decoction or it can be used together with other medicines such as Polygonum hydropiper. The effect is better when fresh Purslane is used. Since Purslane can be eaten as a vegetable and is safe even when used in large quantities, it is a medicine worthy of attention. Nowadays, it is mostly used to treat enteritis, acute arthritis, cystitis, urethritis, anus inflammation, hemorrhoidal bleeding and other diseases.

2. Purslane contains protein, fat, multiple vitamins and amino acids, and is also rich in copper. Copper ions in the body are an important component of tyrosinase, and copper deficiency leads to reduced melanin production. Regular consumption of purslane can increase the density of melanocytes in the epidermis and the activity of tyrosinase in melanocytes. It can be used as an auxiliary dietary dish for patients with vitiligo and patients with gray hair due to copper deficiency.

3. Purslane contains a large amount of norepinephrine and potassium salt, as well as a lot of nutrients such as dihydroxyethylamine, malic acid, saccharide, vitamins B1 and B2. Experiments have confirmed that it has a strong inhibitory effect on many bacteria such as Shigella dysenteriae, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc., and is known as a "natural antibiotic". People often use 120 grams of fresh purslane (60 grams of dried) and 60 grams of japonica rice to cook porridge, or use fresh purslane juice and large doses of water decoction to treat damp-heat diarrhea, acute enteritis, dysentery and other symptoms. It is a natural medicine for clearing heat, detoxifying and reducing inflammation.

side effect:

When you first eat purslane, you must eat it in small amounts. You can eat more after you gradually get used to it. Only white sugar can be added, not brown sugar. Because brown sugar is warm in nature, it goes against the direction of treatment. Purslane is a cold product, so people with weak spleen and stomach, diarrhea and pregnant women should avoid eating it. It should not be eaten with pepper, powder or turtle shell.
