Schizandra at once tastes 5 distinct flavors(Sourness, Sweetness, Hot/Spicy, Bitterness, Saltiness). Schizandra, the fruit of five tastes, makes a good ingredient thanks to the variety of tastes that it can offer and its vivid color.
- Schizandra was introduced in an ancient herbal medicine document as "It is excellent for enhancing lung's function and throat. It was served as a specialty drink for the royal court and exported to other countries."
Traditionally used in Oriental(Chinese) medicine, it has recently come to the center of people's attention as a food. Schizandra berries are one of the 50 essential ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine. Fresh schizandra berries are much better tasting than the dried fruit, although both fresh and dried fruit are packed with nutritions.
"Lignan", which is main ingredient of schizandra, gets
changed to antioxidant in order to prevent a cell damage.
Furthermore, "Lignan" improves anti-aging, anti-cancer,
the function of the liver, a skin condition, and anti-inflammation.
