Why is abalone so expensive?
Introduction: Abalone is a marine shellfish that has been regarded as the "most precious seafood delicacy" since ancient times. Its tender texture and extremely delicious taste are unmatched by other seafoods. Especially in some Southeast Asian countries, Chinese people and compatriots from Hong Kong and Macau particularly love abalone. It is said that its homophone "Bao represents 'to embrace', and Yu represents 'surplus'", so abalone represents "bao yu", signifying "inexhaustible and endless" surplus wealth. Therefore, abalone is not only the best auspicious gift for relatives and friends, but also one of the essential "lucky dishes" on festive banquets, feasts, and dining tables.
Efficacy: Abalone itself has high nutritional value, and abalone meat is rich in globulin. Because it is a deep-sea creature, it has the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is a type of seafood that supplements without causing dryness. There are no side effects such as toothache or nosebleeds after eating it, and it's fine to eat more. Abalone meat also contains a component called "abalone substance" which can destroy the metabolic substances essential for cancer cells. Abalone is also an anti-cancer food on the dining table. The role of abalone is not to lower blood pressure, but to regulate blood pressure in both directions, because abalone can "nourish yin, calm the liver, and consolidate the kidneys," regulating adrenal secretion. Abalone has the effects of regulating menstruation, moistening dryness, and benefiting the intestines, and can treat diseases such as irregular menstruation and constipation.
Suitable for: Most people can eat abalone. People with frequent nighttime urination, qi deficiency and asthma, unstable blood pressure, and difficulty concentrating are suitable for eating more abalone. Diabetics can also use abalone as an auxiliary treatment, but it must be stewed with medicine to be effective.
Overall: It is rare and expensive, and has high nutritional value!
