In the eyes of our people, brown sugar is not only a sweetener, but also a high-quality and low-cost health drink. Many friends will drink brown sugar water to replenish blood when they are suffering from ischemia; when they have stomachache during menstrual period, they will drink a cup of brown sugar water to relieve pain. But in fact, brown sugar can neither replenish blood nor relieve pain.

Hello everyone, I am Xiao Xing, a doctor of medicine. Welcome everyone to follow me and share interesting health knowledge every day.

Brown sugar is made from sugar cane, which is extracted, clarified, boiled, and lime is used as a clarifier. It completely retains the flavor and nutrition of the sugar cane itself. Brown sugar is a high-energy food. Drinking brown sugar water can quickly replenish energy and restore physical strength. For those who often have low blood sugar or consume a lot of physical energy, drinking some brown sugar every day can maintain energy. But for replenishing blood and relieving pain, brown sugar can’t help. 1. Brown sugar cannot replenish the blood

Replenishing the body with the shape is a food supplement method that we people like, so we think that since brown sugar is red, it can replenish the blood.

In fact, brown sugar is brown-red mainly because it contains the brown substance "molasses", which is sugar cane syrup. Brown sugar contains very little iron and has little effect on replenishing blood. 2. Brown sugar cannot relieve pain

Many female friends like to drink a cup of brown sugar water during their menstrual period, thinking it can relieve pain. But brown sugar does not contain ingredients that can relieve pain, so it cannot relieve pain.

After sugar enters the human body, it can stimulate the body to secrete dopamine, which can make the human body feel happy. If you feel better, you may not feel so painful.

Not just brown sugar, eating other sugary foods can also achieve a pleasant and relaxing effect. 3. Brown sugar must be consumed in moderation

As mentioned earlier, brown sugar is a high-calorie food. Excessive intake will lead to excess energy, fat accumulation, and may lead to obesity.

Whether you are a person with diabetes, high blood lipids, or even an elderly person, excessive sugar intake will be harmful to the body.

The "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents" recommends that everyone's total daily intake of sugar should not exceed 25g.
