Hehe, as for food and clothing, each takes what it needs. In fact, silkworm chrysalis is a good thing. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it has the effects of expelling wind, strengthening the spleen, stopping thirst, relieving convulsions and tranquilizing the nerves, replenishing essence and supporting yang.
