Even if you drink the juice immediately after squeezing, there will be a considerable loss of nutrients. For example, vitamin C must not meet with various oxidases, otherwise it will interact with each other. However, when juicing, the high-speed rotating blade will destroy all the cells and everything in them will be mixed together. In this way, vitamin C encounters a variety of oxidases, which will naturally cause heavy losses. Someone has done an experiment that shows that the destruction rate of vitamin C is as high as 80% after cucumber is juiced, and tomatoes and Chinese cabbage have similar results. If possible, it is best to eat the residue when drinking juice.
In order to ensure the nutrition of freshly squeezed juice as much as possible, there are seven precautions for drinking.
1, to lose the foam of freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice
The fruit and vegetable juice we squeeze with the juicer will have a thick layer of foam on it, and generally we will waste it because it has no taste or even looks not so beautiful. Medical research has proved that this layer of foam is rich in enzymes, which are very beneficial to human body, such as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, blood purification, enhancing immunity, etc., but this enzyme is easily dispersed, and its activity can only be guaranteed if it is drunk as soon as possible.
2. Don't throw the sponge layer.
There is a white sponge layer on the surface of citrus fruits, leaving it behind, such as oranges, oranges, grapefruit, etc. After peeling off the skin, there is a white sponge layer inside, which is rich in vitamin C and bioflavonoids and is very nutritious to the human body.
3. Don't use aluminum containers to hold fruit and vegetable juice.
With the improvement of people's health awareness, we all know that once aluminum is ingested in the body, it is difficult to discharge it, which directly damages brain nerve cells, makes people slow down in response and reduces memory. Citric acid and fruit acid in freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice can promote the absorption of aluminum by human body, so remember not to use aluminum products to hold fruit and vegetable juice.
4. Don't abandon eating fruits and vegetables because you drink fruit and vegetable juice.
Freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice can supplement the shortage of vegetables and fruits, but it can't replace them.
5. Fresh fruit and vegetable juice is different from canned food in the market.
The bagged 100% fruit juice is rich in vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, enzymes and other nutrients, which will make you feel refreshed after drinking. However, canned, bottled and other 100% fruit juice drinks are somewhat malnourished compared with them. In order to preserve such fruit juice for a longer time, they must be sterilized at high temperature, and the vitamins and enzymes in the fruit and vegetable juice will be lost.
6. Drink the squeezed fruit and vegetable juice immediately.
In order not to lose the nutrients in fruit and vegetable juice, you should drink it as soon as possible. If you can't finish drinking it, you can store it in the refrigerator, but it can't exceed 24 hours.
7, freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice should be scalded with boiling water before juicing.
A little scalding can kill most of the oxidases on fruits and vegetables, and also make their tissues a little softer. Immediately juicing can reduce the loss of nutrients, increase the juice yield, and make the color of juice relatively brighter and prolong the storage time.
Friends, juice is delicious, but how to keep the nutrition of fruits and vegetables, I suggest you eat fruit directly and drink more water.
