Eating sea cucumber makes you look younger




It is claimed that sea cucumber is good for health. This sea creature is found at the seabed. It is supposed to prevent certain types of cancer, help in healing of wounds, slow down the aging process etc etc.
I found some dried sea cucumber being sold in the Chinese medicinal shops but they are very very expensive. 100 grams of dried sea cucumber cost from $45 to $220! The non dried ones in the wet/supermarkets cost much lesser...about $9 for a packet of 400 grams ( from Sheng Shiong).
This is our first time cooking the sea cucumber (picture above). We mixed it with fish maw, pork, shiitake etc. We had it for lunch yesterday and it turned out to be tasty and nutritious (hopefully).

Why not? if it worked on them then it should work on you too, isn't it?
