[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report]Coriander is one of the most common spices, but many people stay away from its taste. Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners remind that eating coriander in moderation is beneficial to the spleen and stomach. People with a cold constitution can relieve symptoms such as stomach bloating and indigestion. However, it is rich in potassium ions. People with chronic kidney disease should consume it in moderation or consult a physician before consumption. In addition, coriander is usually not cooked when eaten, so pesticide residues need special attention.
Zhongli/Yangmei Fengze Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic Chinese Medicine Physician Zhang Hongming posted on his Facebook page “Zhang Hongming, Physician of Traditional Chinese Medicine“The article pointed out that from the point of view of Chinese medicine, coriander is pungent, warm and fragrant, and can pass through the meridians of the lung, spleen, and stomach. In the initial stage of a cold caused by cold wind, there is slight discomfort. Drinking some hot soup with coriander can help blood circulation and help dispel wind and cold. Chinese medicine also believes that eating some coriander in moderation is beneficial to the spleen and stomach, and people with a cold constitution can relieve symptoms such as stomach fullness and indigestion.
Zhang Hongming said that the special aroma of coriander mainly comes from specific aldehydes. As for people who hate coriander, some studies have pointed out that they are affected by some human olfactory genes, and people with these genes may be more sensitive to this kind of aldehyde compounds. In other words, the dislike of coriander may be innate.
Zhang Hongming emphasized that coriander is rich in nutrients, such as vitamin C, carotene, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium and so on. It can also lower blood sugar and blood fat, and is rich in antioxidant ingredients, which can resist aging, and can also help to strengthen the intestines and stomach. However, coriander is rich in potassium ions, and those with chronic kidney disease should consume it in moderation or consult a physician.
Zhang Hongming reminded that coriander is usually not cooked when eaten, so special attention should be paid to pesticide residues. It is recommended to wash it several times with running water, or blanch it slightly to help remove pesticide residues, and it will be more safe to eat. People who hate the smell of coriander can also mash the coriander and leave it for a while to help the special smell evaporate.
