Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Yang Ziqi
Kudzu powder is a powder processed from kudzu root and has various health benefits and functions.
1. Relieves muscle soreness: Kudzu powder contains abundant flavonoids, which have good anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. For muscle soreness caused by excessive exercise or fatigue, moderate intake of kudzu powder can help alleviate discomfort.
2. Improves digestive function: The dietary fiber contained in kudzu powder can promote gastrointestinal motility and improve constipation. Its components can help eliminate accumulated toxins in the body, enhance intestinal function, and promote digestion and absorption.
3. Promotes blood sugar stability: Kudzu powder can help regulate blood sugar levels and slow down sugar absorption, aiding diabetic patients in controlling blood sugar fluctuations. The regulatory effect of kudzu powder on glucose metabolism can assist in the daily management of diabetic patients.
Although kudzu powder offers numerous health benefits, it should be consumed in moderation to avoid digestive discomfort. If you have specific health conditions or are taking medications, consult your physician before use.
