The renowned pharmacist Sun Simiao established "food therapy" as a specialized discipline in his work *Qianjin Yaofang - Food Characters*, proposing that "food" is the foundation of health and advocating "food therapy" as the preferred method for treating diseases. Here, we introduce a gout food therapy method —— female red radish gout therapy.
**[Ingredients: Northeast Female Red Radish]**
Female red radishes contain abundant active enzymes such as sweet enzymes, touch enzymes, amylase, saccharifying enzyme, and more than ten other beneficial enzymes that promote metabolism and aid digestion. They also contain glucose, oxidase adenine, dehydrated pentose, vaporized mucus, tissue amino acids, choline, and other components. These substances can quickly promote the metabolism of purines and other materials once they enter the body, rapidly reducing the metabolic burden on the liver and kidneys. "Kangfenghong" is currently the world's top-quality variety of female red radishes. It has an extremely high cell density and an exceptionally rich content of active enzymes, so the nutritional content per unit volume exceeds that of other varieties by dozens of times. This is the main difference between "Kangfenghong" and other radishes.
"Kangfenghong" is a special variety with extremely high potassium content. Its potassium content is 9.2 times that of ordinary red radishes, 25.8 times that of green radishes (white radishes have extremely low potassium content, not detected in test reports), and 8.8 times that of carrots. The potassium content of "Kangfenghong" female red radishes is 7.3 times that of bananas, 8 times that of cherries, and 109 times that of broccoli.
**[Consumption Method]**
1. **Juicing**: Wash the female red radish thoroughly with its skin intact, cut it into 1 cm cubes, remove the filter net from the juicer, then add 200 ml of warm water below 55°C and an appropriate amount of honey. After juicing, drink it within 10 minutes to avoid oxidation and reduced efficacy. Note: ① This method should not be used right before sleeping; instead, chew it raw before sleep. ② People with stomach issues should not juice it but must chew it thoroughly to avoid gastric discomfort.
2. **Eating Raw with Skin On**: Cut the washed female red radish into strips or slices and eat it raw with the skin on, chewing it thoroughly to avoid gastric discomfort. If consumed during the day, pairing it with a good tea will produce surprisingly good results. An ancient humorous proverb says: "Radish with hot tea makes doctors crawl." (This method is especially suitable for office workers, providing immediate mental clarity.)
3. **Sweet and Sour Radish Threads**: Wash the female red radish, cut it into threads with the skin on, and mix it with an appropriate amount of sugar and vinegar. The characteristics are a sour and sweet taste with a refreshing mouthfeel (this method offers the best taste).
**[Friendly Reminder]**
Food therapy for gout is the safest! Each year, 25% of gout patients suffer from renal failure, uremia, or even death due to gout medications. When the entire world is using addition, health requires subtraction. Learn to eliminate complex modern processes and embrace simplicity to follow nature and return to purity — this is the true path to health and longevity!
To provide "wind friends" (gout sufferers) with female large red radishes that can be eaten safely, we have formulated standardized *Green Pollution-Free Large Red Radish Production Technology Standards* and strictly enforced them. All these efforts aim to provide "wind friends" with female large red radishes that can be eaten raw with the skin on — "Kangfenghong."
