Litchi Sugar? Will you get angry? We must pay attention to these things when eating litchi safely…….

In Chinese history, there are two famous litchi enthusiasts: Su Dongpo and Yang Guifei.

Although they are both food and drink, their routines are completely different:

Su Dongpo experienced farmhouse picking, fresh! Yang Guifei went exclusively for the royal family and was noble!

Is there any charm in what in litchi, which can transform literary giants and imperial concubines into food? Dr. Clove will tell you about it.

The Growth Road of Litchi

The biggest characteristic of litchi is not sweetness, but… it is easy to break, which is all to blame.

The peel is full of seams and the water has run away. Oxidase produces melanin endlessly. It’s okay. I like to release ethylene (plant ripening agent).

When it is picked from the tree, these three problems of litchi will seriously attack. Then in one day, litchi can cripple itself.

Love Yang Guifei, even if it takes four or five days to get to the capital, no one should buy it now.

Fortunately, after hundreds of years of development, we have high technology!

Refrigeration + hypoxia + fresh-keeping liquid, coupled with fast cold chain transportation… Now fresh litchi can be eaten all over the country.

Worried about preservatives? A good rinse will wash it off.

As for hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and formaldehyde posted online, they are all fake.

However, if litchi has obvious peculiar smell, then don’t buy it. It is definitely not fresh.

Litchi is delicious, but don’t eat it wrong.

Litchi has been on the market for a very short time. For many food products, it is simply to eat once less.

But if you want to be a high-end eater, there are some things you need to know.

1. Eating litchi will cause [excessive internal heat]?

[Excessive internal heat] is not a scientific concept… For litchi, the typical symptoms are: nosebleeds and acne.

Nosebleeds are not very reliable, but acne is really risky. Because litchi has too much sugar!

The sugar content of litchi is as high as about 17%, and high sugar content will increase blood sugar load, thus making acne more serious.

In addition, high sugar content will also make the oral cavity in a state of hypertonic, making you feel dry in taste and tongue.

As for those who eat litchi and have nosebleeds, it may be an accident or intolerance to litchi.

If you have nosebleeds every time you eat it… then dr clove suggested: let’s not eat it.

2. Eating litchi [drunk driving]?

Every year during the litchi season, there is always a lot of news about eating litchi [drunk driving].

In the process of storage and transportation, litchi is prone to anaerobic respiration, producing alcohol and carbon dioxide. In addition, high sugar food will also provide a big meal for oral bacteria, producing alcohol, acetic acid, methane and other substances, causing false alarm of alcohol tester.

Dr. Clove reminded everyone to rinse their mouth after eating litchi next time. If they are found, they will be fine if they apply for a blood test.

03. How much to eat, have pay attention to!

If you eat too much litchi, besides losing weight and developing acne, some people will also suffer from [litchi disease]. Because litchi may stimulate the body to secrete excessive insulin, thus causing hypoglycemia.

Therefore, litchi must not be eaten too much.

The Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents suggest that you should eat 200-350 grams of fresh fruit every day. Litchi is too high in sugar, so we should ask ourselves to keep the lower limit of 200 grams (pulp).

But what is 200 grams?

Dr. Clove came to eat for everyone to see.

4. The correct posture for eating litchi

First of all, we will buy a pile of litchi and then divide it into large and small types.
