01 The efficacy and role of wolfberry.

02 As the saying goes, if a man travels a thousand miles, what does it mean to never eat wolfberry? What will happen if you eat it?
The so-called man travels a thousand miles, never eat wolfberry, it means that if a man is going to go out, it is best not to eat wolfberry, then why is there such a saying?
As we all know, wolfberry has many functions, and reasonable consumption can bring many benefits, such as beneficial to some aspects of health, and may have a positive effect on fertility.
In ancient society, if parents wanted to hold their grandson early, the son often let him eat wolfberry after marriage, but if he had to go out for a long time, he should not eat too much.
In fact, the meaning of this proverb is rather vague. It does not mean that men should not eat wolfberry when they go out, but it shows from the side that men should pay attention to their careers when they go out, endure loneliness, and learn physical and mental restraint. If they eat too much wolfberry and do the wrong thing, it will undoubtedly add discord to the family.
In this way, I believe that many of my friends understand the meaning. In fact, wolfberry is only a little helpful for yang, not so magical. It can only show that eating wolfberry has certain benefits to the human body and can play a healthy role.
The difference between black wolfberry and red wolfberry:

Red wolfberry is a flat red fruit, generally without a stalk, and has a relatively high sugar content. It tastes sweeter when eaten directly.

Black wolfberry is mainly grown in the wild with low yield. Red wolfberry is mainly cultivated artificially, and the yield is relatively high.
- Taste profile.
Black wolfberry has low sugar content and low sweetness after soaking in water. Red wolfberry is high in sugar and tastes sweet after soaking in water.

Because black wolfberry is rich in anthocyanins, it has requirements for temperature. Soak it in warm or cold water below 60 degrees, and cannot cook soup or porridge for a long time. Red wolfberry is not afraid of high temperature and can be used for wine making, soup cooking, soaking in water, etc.
