It is the whole body of the golden squid or the needleless squid of the family Sepia.
【Alias】
Squid.
【Nature, flavor and function】
Salty and flat. Functions: nourishing blood and yin, tonifying liver and kidney, and fighting cancer.
【Chemical composition】
It is rich in protein, calcium, phosphorus, phospholipids, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, etc.
【Anti-cancer mechanism】
Cuttlefish ink contains anti-cancer substances, which are complex carbohydrates composed of sugar, protein and lipid, and its cancer treatment rate is as high as 60%. 30 mice were inoculated with cancer cells, and then 15 of them were given this complex sugar three times, 2/10,000 gram each time. As a result, 9 were cured, and 5 of the 6 mice died from cancer cells, but their lifespan was extended. The other 15 mice that did not take this substance all died within 20 days. Complex carbohydrates cannot directly act on cancer cells, but they enhance the function of macrophages, one of the body's defense mechanisms, and improve
immunity, thereby killing cancer cells. The fatty acid composition of cuttlefish phospholipids is different from that of other animals or plants. It has a strong inhibitory effect on cancer cells. Experts suggest that eating more cuttlefish ink or health products containing cuttlefish ink is beneficial to improving the body's anti-cancer ability and slowing down aging.
