Blood replenishment, almost all exist in the National people's health treasure book.
Whether it is pale face, cold hands and feet, or dizziness and forgetfulness, or a small amount of menstruation... As long as these phenomena occur, they are reminded to "replenish blood".
In everyone's thinking, only when there is enough qi and blood can people be rosy and more energetic.
But the question is, can the blood replenishment really be made up by eating?
Can eating more peanut coats replenish blood?
When it comes to blood, everyone must be familiar with it, and its so-called "light of life" shows how important it is.
In simple terms, it is mainly composed of two major types of substances, cells and plasma, in the cell camp, 45% are red blood cells and iron, and 1% are platelets and white blood cells. In plasma, 90% is water, and 1% is fatty acids, amino acids, glucose and other substances.
Many people think that eating more peanut coats can play a role in tonifying blood.
In fact, according to modern medical research has proved that peanuts are very nutritious, it is rich in plant fiber, vitamin E, unsaturated fatty acids and other nutrients, can be compared with nuts.
However, the color of the red coat on the surface of the peanut is derived from anthocyanins, which contains natural red pigments, resveratrol, proanthocyanidins and other polyphenols.
But these ingredients have nothing to do with "blood replenishment".
These blood replenishments are also unreliable
First, ejiao
Ejiao is mainly made of donkey skin, its component is collagen, from a medical point of view, collagen does not have any effect on replenishing blood, because there is no collagen in the blood, so ejiao can not replenish blood.
In the Chinese medicine code, it is recorded that ejiao is only effective for people who have too much blood loss and body weakness, most of them are used to stop bleeding, and in recent years, under the bombardment of advertisements, ejiao will be mistaken for "blood tonic holy products".
Second, can the red dates replenish blood
Whether it is dried dates or raw dates, sugar accounts for 80%, the remaining 20% is iron, oxalic acid, phytic acid, etc., and the iron content in dried dates is about 2mg/100g, and the fresh dates are even lower, 1.2mg/100g.
This iron content is not only low in quantity, but also the iron in the jujube is not easy to absorb, so it cannot eat the effect of blood replenishment.
Third, brown sugar
The so-called brown sugar is actually unrefined sugar, of which 96.6% of the ingredients are sugar, and its mineral content including iron is basically low.
Therefore, relying on eating brown sugar to replenish blood is not reliable at all.
Isn't there food in this world to replenish blood?
some!
In fact, blood is composed of two major types of substances, cells and plasma, if you want to replenish blood, you must meet any of the above conditions, of which iron is the most critical and easiest to ingest from other foods.
1. Animal blood
Animal blood is much better than peanut coats, ejiao, and dates, and animal blood contains the iron needed for blood in our bodies, and the content is very large.
For example, the iron content in beef is 3.3mg /100g, while the iron content of pig blood is 8.7mg/100g, and the absorption and utilization rate of these irons is high.
2. Animal liver
Animal liver is similar to animal blood, such as pig liver iron content of up to 22.6mg/100g, absorption and utilization rate is also very high.
For us ordinary people, cooking is simpler than animal blood, but you can't eat more, it is recommended to eat about 80g at a time. For patients with high uric acid, do not eat well.
3. Fresh fruits and vegetables
Fresh fruit contains a lot of vitamin C, folic acid, when the body consumes enough vitamin C, vitamin C can promote the use of iron in the body, accelerate the production of red blood cells in the body.
To replenish blood, the premise needs to be based on the conditions of a healthy diet
In fact, we do not have to worry about blood replenishment, as long as it is a healthy person, every day to achieve a balanced diet with meat and vegetarian collocation, the body will automatically adjust the balance, do not worry about blindly, excessive concern about blood replenishment can appear other diseases.
Patients who are weak and need to replenish blood, please follow the doctor's instructions, follow the dietary advice required by the doctor, and do not listen to folklore and Internet rumors, so as not to cause unnecessary harm.
