In the last two years, I have developed the habit of drinking vinegar. I heard that it can soften blood vessels and so on, but I searched online and found some answers. I would like to share with you many plans to lose weight. In order to restore slim figure before the arrival of summer, some friends began to drink vinegar, saying that it can not only help digestion, but also lose weight. In fact, the saying that "jealousy is good for health" has been circulating for a long time. Apple vinegar was very popular in the United States five or six years ago, and several related books were published to teach people how to drink vinegar to keep fit. Jealous Japanese regard vinegar as a panacea to prevent all diseases. Various vinegar treatments, such as vinegar eggs and beans, often set off a wave of weight loss. There are also many people who practice drinking vinegar in their daily lives. There are many folk sayings about the health benefits of jealousy, such as jealousy promoting metabolism, eliminating fatigue, lowering blood pressure, preventing arteriosclerosis, regulating blood pH to prevent diseases, helping digestion and even losing weight. Which of these different health arguments are correct and credible? What lacks scientific basis? ● Vinegar can't adjust the pH of blood. Many people drink vinegar every day for health, because they think that although vinegar tastes acidic, it is an alkaline food after entering the human body, so it can adjust the pH value of blood and make people less likely to get sick. Under normal circumstances, human blood is weakly alkaline (about PH7.4). Nutritionists point out that a few foreign studies have found that people with alkaline blood are healthier, while people with acidic blood are at higher risk of illness. There is also a folk saying that eating meat will make the body sour, eating vegetables, fruits, drinking vinegar and so on. You can adjust your physique and return to an alkaline state. But can eating certain foods really change the pH value of blood? Many western nutritionists point out that there is no scientific basis to prove this statement, and even Chinese medicine does not agree with the statement that this diet changes the pH value of the body. Western nutrition believes that the human body has its own mechanism to maintain the balance of blood pH, which involves complex enzyme action, and I am afraid that it can't be changed just by eating a certain food. Low vinegar can't lose weight. Drinking vinegar to lose weight was all the rage. It was popular in Japan and Taiwan Province Province to soak soybeans in vinegar and pickle them into vinegar beans, claiming that eating 10 ~ 20 capsules every morning and evening can achieve the effect of losing weight. It is said that vinegar can improve human metabolism and prevent fat accumulation, but nutrition experts shake their heads and say that there is no exact research to support this claim. Some nutritionists theorize that if you really want to lose weight by drinking vinegar, it may be that your mouth is full of vinegar and you can't eat anything else, or that you have replaced your usual high-calorie snacks with vinegar beans. In contrast, your calorie intake will be reduced. However, this method of losing weight can't last long. In the long run, it will lead to nutritional deficiency and imbalance, which will consume a lot of health. Weng Huiling reminded that on the contrary, some vinegar products will add a lot of sugar to enhance the taste if they are vinegar drinks, and the calories are not low. When buying, you can pay attention to whether sugar is listed in the ingredient list, or whether it contains the calories and carbohydrate content marked by nutrition. Therefore, it is doubtful whether drinking vinegar can lose weight. ● Vinegar can stimulate appetite. The sultry summer makes people lose their appetite. Eating some hot and sour dishes can stimulate their appetite. Seasoning with vinegar is one of the simple methods, for example, using vinegar and olive oil to make oil-vinegar salad dressing with lower calorie than Thousand Island Sauce, using vinegar, minced garlic and pepper to make cold seafood, or using vinegar to pickle cucumber, lotus root and bitter gourd as appetizers before meals in summer. Nutritionists suggest that letting chronic patients with poor appetite and elderly people with degraded taste eat vinegar in moderation can adjust their appetite and improve their diet. ● Vinegar can stimulate gastric acid secretion and help digestion. A moderate amount of jealousy is helpful to some people with less gastric acid secretion. But people with normal digestive tract function don't have to drink vinegar to improve digestion. Moreover, people with normal gastric acid secretion will not necessarily increase the amount of gastric acid secretion if they drink vinegar again.
