It is the king of wild vegetables in June. Potassium is 20 times that of ordinary vegetables, but it is a pity that it can clear away heat and prolong life.

May has passed, June has come, and the weather in June is getting hotter and hotter. In cities, most of them turn on air conditioners to relieve fever, while in rural areas, farmers like to eat some heat-clearing vegetables, such as cucumbers and balsam pears, or fruits such as watermelons, but many farmers still like to eat hot wild vegetables.

In the countryside in June, there are two kinds of wild vegetables that have the effect of clearing away heat, that is, purslane and Malantou, but if we have to compare which of these two kinds of wild vegetables is better, most farmers think it is Malan Tou. and Malan Tou is also called "the king of wild vegetables in June", so what are the advantages of Malan Tou? Let's learn more about it.

As it is very hot these days, the author is also a little angry. When I get up early in the morning, I go to the mountains with my mother to dig wild vegetables, and the wild vegetable to be dug today is Ma Lantou.

In fact, the Malan head in this season is not as good as it was in March or April. after all, it has already blossomed, and after June, the wild Malan head can hardly be eaten, so if you want to eat the wild Malan head, you have to seize the last month.

Malantou is also a common wild vegetable in rural areas, which is distributed on hillsides, fields and roadsides almost all over the country, but the fields and roadsides are not suitable to be dug to eat, because pesticides are usually used.

It is believed that many friends living in the countryside have eaten Malantou and Portulaca oleracea. These two kinds of wild vegetables are both wild vegetables in June, and they are also very delicious wild vegetables, so why should we say that Malantou is the king of wild vegetables in June? In fact, the main reason is that Malan head is more nutritious than purslane.

The author also consulted the relevant data, according to the records, Malan head is very rich in nutrition, rich in mineral elements, vitamins and β-carotene, more than 17 kinds of amino acids, of which 7 are essential for human body. Among them, every 100 grams of Malan head edible part contains carotene 31.5 mg, potassium 530 mg, calcium 145 mg, magnesium 46.8 mg, vitamin C69 mg, especially potassium content is 20 times or more than ordinary vegetables, and calcium, magnesium, vitamin C and other nutrients are also higher than ordinary vegetables, it can be seen that the value of Malan head is high.

And Malan head not only has edible value, but also has medicinal value, it can be used as medicine, it has the effects of clearing heat and detoxification, digestion, urination, cooling blood and stopping blood, dampness, and its nutritional value, so it is often eaten in summer, which can not only clear heat and cool blood, but also has the effect of appetizer and longevity. It is recorded in the book Justice of Materia Medica: "the most antipyretic toxin, can be specialized in blood, stop bleeding and cool blood." Especially good at it. "
