Trotter

The pig's hand is the pig's forehand, and the pig's hoof is the pig's hind hoof. Pigs all walk on four feet and squat down, carrying heavy bodies. According to the dietotherapy viewpoint of "governing shape by shape" in traditional Chinese medicine, eating pig's trotters can supplement people's feet (especially the elderly with declining lower limb function), making people walk lightly and have strong leg muscles. Motherland medicine also believes that the elderly are overworked all their lives, and their kidney essence is deficient, and they often have aging phenomena such as backache, weak legs, hunchback and staggered gait; And because of the lack of gastric juice, lung qi deficiency, dry skin, wrinkles, spots and gray hair; Also due to weak qi and blood and little activity, muscle atrophy and sores are difficult to heal. Tonifying in winter and eating more pig's trotters can greatly delay aging. According to "Living with Interest Diet Spectrum", "Pig's trotters can replenish kidney essence, strengthen waist and feet, nourish gastric juice to smooth skin, increase muscle leakage, and help blood vessels to replenish milk, which is more tonic than meat". According to research, pig's trotters are rich in protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamins A, B, C, E and so on, which is beneficial to the prevention and treatment of beriberi, arthritis, anemia, senile osteoporosis and other diseases. The pig's trotters are cooked thoroughly, the skin and meat are separated, the meat is covered with rubber, the bone marrow leaks out, and the entrance is easy. The elderly who have lost their teeth can also enjoy this delicious food. However, pig's trotters are high-fat and high-cholesterol foods, and those suffering from arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, coronary heart disease and obesity should not eat more.
