It is precisely because of the magical nourishing effect of Ejiao that the market demand is huge. Under the temptation of commercial interests, a large number of manufacturers enter the production of Ejiao every year, which leads to the flooding of inferior and counterfeit products in the market and serious harm to consumers' health.
So, how to distinguish between real gelatin and fake gelatin? From the appearance, the real Gillian is brown or brown-black, black as enamel and amber in color. The shape is flat, the surface is smooth and shiny, and the edge is translucent when illuminated. Fake Gillian is generally dark, dull, unsmooth and even pitted. It smells like donkey-hide gelatin has a faint soybean oil flavor, slightly sweet; The smell of fake Gillian is very strong. If you touch your skin, even in summer, Ejiao made of pure donkey skin will not be wet and soft, and your skin will feel dry and your hands will not be wet. If the skin is wet and sticky, it is a fake and shoddy product. Never buy it. When testing water, water can also distinguish its quality, break gelatin, and then brew it with boiling water. True gelatin liquid is transparent, while false gelatin is turbid and even emulsified.
In addition to the above points, you need to look for the logo when buying Ejiao. If there is a Chinese medicine approval number on the package, it is Ejiao with attending function. If there is a blue hat on the package, it means only supplementary health benefits. People should carefully distinguish between medical Ejiao and health Ejiao. In addition, Gillian is more expensive, so it is recommended to buy regular brands of Gillian in pharmacies.
