Truffle as a medicine
Truffle as a medicine
Muhammad said: “Truffles are a kind of ‘Manna’ (sent down upon juice is a medicine for the eyes."
Narrated by Bukhari, Muslim & Tirmithi
Truffle is a fleshy fungus mushroom-like plant that belongs to the Agaricaceae family. It grows in groups under the surface of the soil (2-50 cm deep) in desert moist areas without leaves or roots. It has a distinct smell and can be white, gray or brown in color.
According to the analytical research, 77% of the truffle is water and the remaining part is a mix of protein, fat, carbohydrates and other materials.
However, modern science discoveries indicate that the liquid of truffles has an effective curable effect on many eye diseases including trachoma, which is an infectious eye disease that causes damage to the cornea cells.
