Description

Heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil, the lotus root, ½ teaspoon sugar and some salt. Cook for 5 minutes until the root vegetable begins to soften. Potassium aids in the balance of body fluids and even counteracts the effects of salt. Potassium also helps relax blood vessels and promote blood flow by lowering blood vessel stiffness and contraction, relieving the cardiovascular system of stress. Aids in Digestion a b c d Guo, H.B.

In particular, they may have anticancer effects, protect against Alzheimer’s disease, and prevent liver damage ( 8, 9, 10). Lim, T. K. (2016). "Nelumbo nucifera".

One study found that lotus leaf extract reduced blood sugar levels in rabbits with diabetes significantly more than a standard diabetes medication ( 17). Lotus seeds are mostly oval or spherical, with sizes varying according to varieties. They are generally 1.2–1.8cm long, with diameters ranging from 0.8 to 1.4cm and a weight of 1.1–1.4 g. After lotus seeds have been decorticated and peeled, they are edible and rich in nutrients and can be dried for storage. Their nutritional values can differ due to culture environments and varieties. [88] The sacred lotus grows in water up to 2.5m (8ft) deep. The minimum water depth is about 30cm (12in). In colder climates, having a deeper water level protects the tubers more effectively, and overall is helpful for better growth and flowering. The sacred lotus germinates at temperatures above 13°C (55°F). [27] Most varieties are not naturally cold-hardy, but may readily adapt to living outdoors year-round in USDA hardiness zones 6 through 11 (with some growers having success in zones as low as 4 or 5); the higher the zone's number, the greater the adaptability of the plants. [28] In the growing season, from April to September (in the northern hemisphere), the average daytime temperature needed is 23 to 27°C (73 to 81°F). [29] In regions with low light levels in winter, the sacred lotus has a period of dormancy. The tubers are not cold-resistant, if removed from water, and exposed to the air; when kept underwater in soil, the energy-rich tubers can overwinter temperatures below 0°C (32°F). [30] If the plants are taken out of the water for wintertime storage (mostly in exceptionally cold climates), the tubers and roots must be stored in a stable, frost-free location, such as a garage, preferably in a cardboard box or container filled completely with vermiculite or perlite. Care must be taken to fully insulate the tubers. [31] [32] Planting [ edit ]One example of a flower lotus is Wanlian. Also known as bowl lotus, wanlians are any miniature cultivars of N. nucifera sized between 5 and 8 centimetres (2.0 and 3.1in). Bowl lotuses come in various colours and numbers of petals, and they bloom longer than other species of lotus. But together with the rhizome, their seeds are often too small or too hard to be eatable. [42] Lotus root is an ideal source of dietary fibre. It helps improve bowel movements by absorbing water in the intestines and softening the stool. Thus, resulting in a smooth pass out of the stool. In addition, research suggests that dietary fibre intake increases stool frequency in patients with constipation. The lotus plant has been eaten as a food for 7,000 years in Asia. Its stem and roots are often added to soups and stir-fries, but its leaves, flowers, and seeds are also used in cooking ( 1, 2, 3).

Lotus root contains several essential micronutrients such as potassium (556 mg), phosphorus (100 mg), copper, vitamin B6, and iron. It also contains vitamin C (44mg) and folate (13µg). Vitamin C is a highly water-soluble antioxidant necessary for collagen formation in the body, protecting against scurvy and boosting immunity. a b c d Virendra Mishra (2009).

Both potassium and magnesium reduce blood pressure, and potassium helps relieve blood vessel tension and counteracts the effects of excessive sodium in the blood through excretion.
