Daikon radish is a root vegetable with a pungent/sweet flavor.
You might have seen it on a sashimi plate used as a garnish“Tsuma”.
It's well known for improving your digestive system. Also, it moistens your lung and it's been used as a home remedy for relieving sore throat.
However, daikon radish has the property of cooling your body. If you are sensitive to cold and suffering from cold-related symptoms such as having cold feet/hands, and chronic diarrhea, I suggest you have cooked daikon or choose turnips instead. Turnip is categorized as neutral nature food.

Nature – Cool （涼）
Channels – Lung (肺), Stomach (胃)
