Peaches nourish people, apricots harm people, and people are buried under plum trees. That is to say, among these three fruits, peaches are the most nutritious and beneficial to people's health. Every hundred grams of peach contains 0.8g of protein, 0. 1 g of fat, 7g of sugar, 4. 1 g of crude fiber, 0.5g of ash, 8mg of calcium, 20mg of phosphorus, 0. 0mg of iron1mg of carotene and 0. 0mg of thiamine. This is a table about the nutritional components of peaches, from which we can see the essence of "peaches nourish people".
When peach is used as medicine, it has the functions of promoting fluid production, moistening intestines, promoting blood circulation and resolving food stagnation, so as to replenish heart qi, nourish liver qi, promote blood circulation and dredge channels, relieve polydipsia and benefit the large intestine. "Da Ming Ben Cao" also called peach "the fruit of lung, suitable for lung disease". Sweating with 15g dried peach for night sweats; Tuberculosis, preserved peaches can be eaten all year round; Constipation in the elderly can be alleviated by eating fresh peaches; Eating peaches also has the advantage of prolonging life. The ancients called peaches Xiantao, Shoutao and Shouguo.
Peach kernel is widely used as a medicine to break blood stasis, moisten dryness and smooth intestines, and treat amenorrhea, abdominal mass, fever, blood stasis, malaria, traumatic injury, swelling and pain due to blood stasis, and constipation due to blood dryness. Peach leaves are not waste, but have the functions of expelling wind and removing dampness, clearing away heat and killing insects. It can be used for treating head wind, headache, rheumatism, malaria, eczema and furuncle, especially eliminating the four pests. Peach blossom is beneficial to promoting blood circulation and relaxing bowels, and has different therapeutic effects on edema, beriberi, phlegm retention, constipation and amenorrhea. Others, such as the role of peach branches in avoiding epidemics and preventing various infectious diseases, the role of peach roots in eliminating jaundice and stopping bleeding in treating hemorrhoids, and the role of peach gum in treating dysentery and dredging lower urinary calculi, are hard to describe.
Although peaches are nourishing, they are sweet and warm and should not be eaten more. If they eat too much, they will produce heat. Peach kernel is poisonous and generally inedible.
Why do you say "apricot hurts"? "The Book of Eating" says: "The taste is sour and the nature is hot", "Don't eat too much, it will lead to carbuncle, which will hurt the muscles and bones". "Japanese Materia Medica" says: "Hot, toxic". "Herbal Yi Yan" said: "Children are especially inedible. Eating too much can lead to sores and carbuncle and fever on the upper diaphragm". Practice in life has proved that the sour taste of apricots makes people's teeth fall off, which is not good for teeth. Strong sour taste has a destructive effect on calcium, which may affect children's bone development. Eating too many apricots at a time will also make the evil fire go up, causing nosebleeds, eye diseases, poor speech and teeth, and may also cause sores, sores and diarrhea.
It's true that apricots hurt people. Don't eat more. But just like keeping peaches is harmful to people, hurting apricots is not harmful to people, so I won't talk about it here.
It is also true that plums are harmful to human body. Sun Simiao said, "Don't eat too much, it's empty.". The herb in southern Yunnan contains: "Don't eat too much, it hurts the spleen and stomach". "Xisheng" also has the words "eat more to produce phlegm and help damp malaria, especially those with spleen deficiency". Life has proved that eating too many plums can make people feel unwell, such as deficiency heat and brain swelling. Bitter and astringent, plums that do not sink into water are poisonous and inedible. Patients who eat more plums to eliminate phlegm, damage teeth and are weak should eat less.
Looking at folk proverbs, the advantages and disadvantages of peach, apricot and plum are relative. Comparing the benefits of these fruits, the folk proverb is right. As far as they are concerned, we should see that they have their own advantages and disadvantages. After all, fruit is an auxiliary product in life, so it should be eaten in moderation according to its advantages.
