Persimmons can reduce high blood pressure and cancer risk, and also skin care and eye-catching! Persimmons and persimmons have different nutrients, and the calcium of persimmons increases by 187.5%

Autumn and winter are the seasons when persimmons are abundant. There is a rumor on the Internet that "don't drink yogurt after eating persimmons, and don't eat bananas, it will be poisoned!" Is it true? Dietitian Li Wanping said that persimmons and yogurt are both nutrient-rich foods, and eating them together will only make some people gastrointestinal discomfort, and will not lead to poisoning and death.

Li Wanping pointed out that persimmons contain tannic acid, also known as tannic acid, which is easily combined with protein to form tannic acid protein, which then solidifies and agglomerates in the stomach, causing indigestion. Therefore, the peasant calendar reminds that crabs cannot be eaten with persimmons. In addition, these two kinds of ingredients are rich in the same season, and many people will take the opportunity to eat them, which is why they say this.

But what is interesting is that many foreign websites recommend persimmons and milk to make milkshakes, and some people recommend eating persimmons and yogurt together, so "there may be individual differences depending on each person's constitution and amount of consumption." Li Wanping said, but the stomach itself is more sensitive and weak, it is recommended to eat seafood, milk and dairy products and other protein-rich foods, it is best not to eat persimmons at the same time, should be separated by two hours.

And other claims that cannot be eaten with bananas and sweet potatoes are also because bananas will increase tannins and are rich in dietary fiber; sweet potatoes are rich in starch, which will increase gastric acid, causing it to condense in the stomach. The risk of lumps, discomfort or stomach pain becomes higher.

Eating persimmons in excess or on an empty stomach can also cause gastrointestinal problems

Li Wanping said that in the case report, some elderly people or childrenAfter eating persimmons, stomach troubles and intestinal obstruction are often caused by eating too much at one time. The former is due to older age and slower gastrointestinal peristalsis, and the latter is due to the shorter digestive tract, so it is recommended to limit one persimmon at a time. As for dried persimmons, due to their high sweetness and calories, the potassium ion content is several times higher. Patients with diabetes and kidney disease should eat them in moderation. It is recommended to cut them into small pieces and taste them.

In addition, the tannins of persimmons have astringent effects on the stomach and intestines. It is reminded to avoid eating on an empty stomach as much as possible, so as not to be difficult to digest, causing stomach pain and discomfort.

Eating persimmons can reduce blood pressure, skin care, eye-catching, and reduce the risk of various cancers

Li Wanping said, but don't think of tannins as bad elements. Foreign literature has pointed out that persimmons are considered to "effectively reduce oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species" due to their rich phytochemical components. The high antioxidant activity of persimmon may be derived from its tannin content; in vitro and animal studies have shown that tannin can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. In addition, persimmons also contain proanthocyanidins, carotenoids, kaempferol, quercetin and catechins that can scavenge free radicals, which can reduce the risk of high blood pressure, diabetes and various cancers. At the same time, research has also found that persimmons appear to alter and reduce the rate of alcohol absorption and metabolism, improving hangover symptoms.

Persimmons and persimmon cakes are rich in nutrients

In addition to fresh food, persimmons are dried and processed into persimmon cakes, which are equally nutritious. However, the two are different in composition and content. For example, sweet persimmons are rich in vitamins A and C, which help protect the eyes.And skin health; dried persimmons after sun drying, although vitamin A and C are reduced, dietary fiber and calcium are increased by 950% and 187.5% respectively, and iron is also doubled.

Li Wanping said that although dried persimmons have good nutritional value, it is easy to overdose one bite after another when eaten as snacks. It is recommended to follow the principle of moderate consumption. People may wish to use the way of cooking, such as stewing persimmon cake chicken soup, making persimmon cake tea, or cooking with red dates or fruits into desserts, dicing them into small pieces and adding them to vegetable salads, you can taste its sweet taste!
