The health-care functions of peanuts are as follows: First, eating peanuts can decompose cholesterol in human liver into bile acids, so that its excretion is enhanced, thus lowering cholesterol. Second, the red coat of peanut kernel (the skin of peanut kernel) can inhibit the dissolution of fibrin, promote platelet regeneration and strengthen the contraction function of capillaries, which is beneficial to patients with thrombocytopenia, pulmonary tuberculosis hemoptysis and urinary tract bleeding.
To give full play to the health care function of peanuts, we should pay attention to scientific eating methods:
Peanuts should not be eaten raw: peanuts contain more fat, which is slowly digested and absorbed by the human body. Eating a lot of peanuts raw can cause indigestion. In addition, peanuts grow in soil and are often contaminated by parasitic eggs, which can easily cause parasitic diseases if eaten raw. At the same time, peanuts are often polluted by rodents, which is easy to spread natural epidemic diseases, especially epidemic hemorrhagic fever. Therefore, peanuts should not be eaten raw, and it is best to eat them after cooking.
Boiled peanuts have high nutrition: some people are used to eating fried peanuts or eating them after frying, which will destroy a lot of glycerides and glycol esters contained in the red coat of peanuts, so the nutritional value of boiled peanuts together with the red coat is higher. In addition, peanuts are easily infected with aflatoxin. After boiled, the aflatoxin contaminated by peanuts can basically be dissolved in water, which is safer to eat.
Peanut soaked in vinegar "fairy match": Peanut contains unsaturated fatty acids needed by human body, but after all, it has high lipid content, high calorie and greasy feeling. However, many organic acids in vinegar are just greasy and fragrant, so soaking peanuts in vinegar for more than a week and eating 7- 10 capsules every night for a week can lower blood pressure, soften blood vessels and reduce the accumulation of cholesterol.
Eating more peanuts is harmful to your health: peanuts are rich in oil, which is not easy to digest. Eating more peanuts can't be digested, causing direct excretion of peanuts. Those with cold, dampness, stagnation and loose bowels should take it according to the doctor's advice;
Avoid eating moldy peanuts. In the experiment of eating moldy food animals, it was found that the consumption of moldy peanuts was the smallest and the liver cancer was the fastest.
Mildew peanuts that are not obvious are generally unnoticed, but the risk of disease is not small.
Appropriate amount should be used in time, and the dosage should be reduced in hot summer. Make it beneficial and harmless.
