Disadvantages of eating melon seeds: melon seeds contain too much salt, which is easy to cause high blood pressure, which is the source of all diseases. Long-term eating melon seeds and shells will take away a lot of people's saliva, and a lot of lack of saliva will be threatening and harmful to people's life and health (there is a lot of knowledge authentication in this network) because sunflower seeds and watermelons are rich in fat, protein, zinc and other trace elements and vitamins, which can enhance the digestive function. Eating melon seeds can enliven the whole digestive system. The fragrance of melon seeds stimulates the taste buds on the tongue, and the taste buds transmit this nerve impulse to the brain, which in turn reacts on digestive organs such as salivary glands, making the secretion of saliva and gastric juice containing various digestive enzymes relatively strong. Therefore, when you knock melon seeds before or after meals, the digestive juice will be continuously secreted, which is very beneficial to digestion and absorption. Therefore, cracking melon seeds before meals can promote appetite, and cracking melon seeds after meals can help digestion. If several melon seeds are mixed, the effect will be better. Although cracking melon seeds has many advantages, don't knock melon seeds excessively. To think of the other side of the problem, cracking melon seeds also has disadvantages, that is, it will consume a lot of saliva. Saliva has some more important functions besides moistening the oral mouthpiece for vocalization and food swallowing. Modern medical research has found that saliva contains substances that promote hemostasis and contraction of blood vessels, which can speed up blood coagulation, reduce wound bleeding and promote wound healing. Saliva can neutralize the acid produced by bacteria in the mouth, protect teeth and prevent dental caries. Saliva contains secretory immunoglobulin A and lysozyme, which has immune and antibacterial effects. Saliva contains digestive enzymes, which can turn polysaccharides into disaccharides for human body to absorb; In addition, saliva is an anticancer agent, which can reduce the toxicity of carcinogens such as aflatoxin and benzopyrene. Saliva also contains salivary hormones, which have a certain influence on the development of bones and teeth, calcium and phosphorus metabolism in blood, and protein synthesis. Therefore, people who knock melon seeds a lot and consume a lot of saliva are prone to diseases such as aphtha, tongue sore, dental caries, gingivitis and mumps. In addition, because melon seeds are often unclean, it is easy to spread diseases such as hepatitis and dysentery. This point cannot but arouse people's attention. Most diabetic patients know that diet therapy is an important means to control the increase of blood sugar, and they know that a small number of meals are needed to reduce the burden of islet and control the development of the disease, so eating snacks has become one of their means to ensure adequate nutrition.

Melon seeds are rich in nutrition and attractive in aroma. Watermelon seeds can strengthen the stomach, benefit the lungs and moisten the intestines.

Eating melon seeds properly can stimulate the taste nerve on the tongue, promote the secretion of saliva and gastric juice, facilitate digestion, be beneficial to health, and promote the movement of facial muscles. It is reported that sunflower seeds have medical value and can cure diarrhea, impetigo and other diseases. However, because melon seeds contain a certain amount of sugar, diabetics should eat as little as possible. If you eat 500 grams of melon seeds every day, it will definitely have an impact on blood sugar, which is not conducive to controlling blood sugar in diabetics. In addition, melon seeds not only contain rich protein, but also contain oil. Eating them in large quantities not only greatly increases calories, but also raises blood lipids. Part of blood lipids can be converted into glucose through gluconeogenesis, which can raise blood sugar. In addition, when eating melon seeds, saliva will be lost because it adheres to the melon seed shell and is spit out. Excessive loss of saliva will lead to oral ulcers, gingivitis, dental caries, indigestion and other diseases, but also dull taste and loss of appetite. Saliva helps to remove food residues in the mouth, reduce the chances of bacterial reproduction and fermentation, and protect the oral mucosa. Once diabetic patients have oral ulcers, it is difficult to recover. Therefore, when eating sunflower seeds, it is best to peel the shells by hand, and remember not to eat too much at one time. People with diabetes should calculate the amount of melon seeds and try to reduce the intake of oil. When you really want to eat, don't exceed150g every day.
