Pineapple is suitable for all kinds of physique.
In summer, the climate is humid and hot, and it is easy to sweat a lot. Pineapple can not only quench thirst when eaten raw, but also improve taste when cooked. It is a good fruit and vegetable in summer season. Lin Lingrong, a nutritionist at Pingtung Branch of Kaohsiung Rongmin General Hospital, pointed out that pineapple is rich in nutrients, not only vitamins B 1, B2, C, carotene, nicotinic acid, but also minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium and zinc. Moreover, it is rich in crude fiber, and there are many organic acids and pineapple enzymes, which have multiple health care functions for both body and mind.
In traditional Chinese medicine, pineapple is a kind of flat fruit, which is suitable for people of all physiques. The best health-preserving function is that the protease in it can promote digestion and reduce blood viscosity, which has a certain auxiliary effect on the prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In addition, the sugar and salt in pineapple can diminish inflammation, promote diuresis, clear away heat and detoxify; Vitamin B 1 is the key to substance metabolism and energy metabolism in the body, while B2 can enhance immunity, resist fatigue, moisturize the skin, and also have good effects on regulating the stomach, reducing pressure and cooling down.
Pineapple has high nutritional value. Don't neglect eating taboos.
Lin Lingrong said that the proteolytic enzyme (so-called protease) in pineapple helps to decompose protein and fat. If it is cooked with meat, the meat will be particularly tender and easy to digest, but high temperature will destroy the effectiveness of protease in pineapple. Therefore, it is suggested that when pineapple is served, the temperature should not be too high, which is more suitable for cold dishes.
In addition, pineapple contains high sugar and calories, even higher than watermelon, which can also relieve summer heat. Therefore, special attention should be paid when eating. For people who lose weight, have diabetes and have high triglycerides, it is best to take it in moderation. It is a pity that when people eat pineapple, they are used to cutting off the pineapple heart and throwing it away because it is hard. In fact, the crude fiber content of pineapple heart is far better than the meat on the surface of pineapple, which is a good helper to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis.
However, Lin Lingrong also reminded that because of the high crude fiber content, it is best not to eat pineapple if it is a patient who has just undergone gastrointestinal surgery, so as to avoid the gastrointestinal tract and affect the wound recovery. Moreover, patients with liver cirrhosis also need to worry about esophageal varices and should avoid eating it.
