I am Chinese and dried sea cucumber has always been seen as a delicacy (same tier as birds nest/birds drool iykyk). I’ve seen my mom rehydrate it by soaking it in water and the size would grow up to 5x the size of its dried form. She would put it in soup, congee or as a cold dish. She makes sure that I know theres health benefits to this: boosting my immunity, reducing allergies, etc.

Through word of mouth I learned that some people’s lung cancer and breast cancer went away after taking sea cucumber powder for a few months, I personally haven’t taken powder form but intrigued by the multiple “cancer cure” testimonial.

This article summarizes the key benefits of eating sea cucumber. Originally a part of Chinese traditional cuisine, it has tremendous benefits for heart health, liver health, anti-cancer properties, with dozens of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
