2. Nourishing yin and nourishing the skin: Turtle shell (turtle shell) is considered to have the effect of nourishing yin and nourishing the skin. It can be used to replenish liver and kidney yin deficiency, nourish the skin, etc.

3. Strengthen the body: Turtle meat is rich in protein and various minerals and is considered beneficial to strengthening physical strength and promoting growth and development.

It is important to note that although turtles are widely used in traditional medicine, scientific evidence for their medicinal value is relatively limited. Modern medicine focuses more on evidence based on clinical trials and scientific research, so the use of turtles as medicinal materials is not widely supported and recognized.

Additionally, turtles are protected wild animals, with legal and ethical regulations restricting their use and trade in many areas. Therefore, if you are interested in the medicinal applications of turtles, it is recommended to consult a professional herbalist or herbalist for more accurate information and to follow local laws and regulations.
