Asparagus Stir-Fry with Cloud Ear, Mushroom and Carrot
traditionally associated with supporting healthy blood pressure and cardiovascular wellness
In short: Asparagus Stir-Fry with Cloud Ear, Mushroom and Carrot is a home-style dishe that traditionally associated with supporting healthy blood pressure and cardiovascular wellness. It is most often made for heart & circulation. Total time about 30 min. Key ingredients: asparagus, carrot, garlic, oyster sauce.
Why people make this stir-fry
Nourilo notes that early-stage high blood pressure often shows up as dizziness, tinnitus, heart palpitations, poor sleep and forgetfulness — sometimes with numbness in the limbs. Keeping a daily blood pressure log is a sensible first step. Alongside that, adding more plant-based dishes to the diet is something Chinese food therapy has long advocated. This colourful stir-fry — asparagus paired with cloud ear mushroom, button mushrooms and carrot — is one of Nourilo’s favourites: it comes together quickly, tastes genuinely good, and the ingredients have excellent traditional credentials for supporting vascular health.

The number of illnesses did not differ significantly, but cold and flu severity and missed days were lower.Limitation: Cold and flu outcomes were self-reported in daily diaries, and the dose was a concentrated extract that is not comparable to dietary garlic.PubMed 26764332 · 2 more garlic studies
