I don’t know since when, there is a kind of barley green juice on the market that has become popular. It is said that the health care function is so good that it is almost as good as an elixir. But it didn’t take long for opposition voices to appear, thinking that it was not as magical as it was said to be, and that it was completely pseudoscience.
But in fact, although barley green juice is not that magical, it is not useless at all. This matter still needs to be viewed scientifically and rigorously.
First of all, barley green juice is said to be able to remove toxins from the intestines because it contains high dietary fiber. Barley green juice is made from wheat seedlings, a plant. Plants contain dietary fiber to some extent, but the content is not certain. The dietary fiber content of wheat seedlings is not high.
And the normal amount of wheatgrass powder we drink is just a small spoonful, just a few grams. The dietary fiber we need every day is as much as 25g, so a few grams of green juice powder is completely useless.
Some people say that its rich chlorophyll can purify the blood. Purifying the blood is a vast project that requires the maintenance of metabolism. There is no scientific basis for whether chlorophyll can be purified, it is just everyone's self-hypnosis. Even if there is, we usually eat more vegetables and they are full of chlorophyll. How much effect can a few grams of green juice powder have? Of course, there is no harm in eating it, but why do we spend so much money eating this completely stale powder?
Some even say that the SOD enzyme rich in barley green juice can decompose pesticides and chemical toxins. Oh my god, does anyone really believe this? High school biology told me that SOD is superoxide dismutase. Since it is an enzyme, it is a kind of protein. It will be completely decomposed when eaten in the stomach.
This is why insulin cannot be taken orally, because it is also a protein. Although SOD is miraculous, it is not helpful for pesticides and metal components. Even Dabao SOD honey doesn’t dare to say that it has such a function, barley green juice? Who gave you the courage? Liang Jingru?
There is often such a strange phenomenon in the current health care circle. As long as it is non-toxic and harmless, it can be sold with a few beneficial labels. Buyers are also completely unwilling to use their brains. They just believe what the merchants say and always buy blindly. The remaining small portion that I didn’t buy was because I had no money, not because I had the ability to discern.
Nowadays, the environment is polluted and our work is relatively hard. Proper health care is a good way to live longer and younger. However, if you buy health care products without careful analysis, it will have no real effect except a waste of money, and you will only be laughed at because you spend too much money. I still hope that all my friends will open their eyes and choose products that are truly beneficial to them.
In addition to health products, many things that are good for our bodies are available in the vegetable market. There is no need to be superstitious about things in bottles. In fact, it is a healthier choice for us.
