Offal is really a very extreme kind of food, people who love it especially like to eat offal, and people who don't like it can't eat a bite.
Many people say that the internal organs are not clean, they are all metabolites, eating is not good for the body, some people say that the internal organs are rich in nutrients, can replenish blood, iron has various benefits, in the end which is the "original face" of the internal organs?
The common internal organs in our daily life are generally pig internal organs, and today we will take the common pig internal organs as the mainstay to see if the internal organs can be eaten in the end.
liver
Pig liver is a good thing for iron supplementation, the World Health Organization pointed out that anemia is common all over the world, the main cause is iron deficiency, the world's most popular nutritional deficiencies.
The pig liver is rich in iron and the absorption rate is also high, which is good for improving iron deficiency anemia.
However, pig liver is not the more you eat, the better, the more vitamin A and heavy metals in pig liver, eating more may be harmful.
In general, eat animal liver once a week, 25 to 50 grams each time.
Pig lungs
Many people also think that there will inevitably be a lot of dust in the pig lung, in fact, the pig lung is not as dirty as everyone thinks, and we eat the pig lung into the stomach, and the human digestive tract will not absorb any so-called dust.
Relative to food intake, the smog that you breathe may directly enter the bloodstream and be more harmful to the body.
Pig intestines
Cooking mature pig intestines has lost its activity, so don't worry too much about the hormonal components in it.
Including some food debris bacteria and so on, these, as long as they are cleaned, there is no big problem.
Pig intestines should be most worried about the high fat content, generally from the perspective of nutrition and health is not recommended to eat regularly.
Pig kidneys
Pig kidney is what we often call waist flower, compared to other internal organs, its selenium content is a lot more, and the content of vitaminS B1, B2 and iron is also higher than other internal organs.
But fat and cholesterol are not low, and it is better to eat only occasionally.
Pig brain
Pig brain is a must for many people when eating hot pot, fresh and tender pig brain is addictive, from a nutritional point of view, the reason why pig brain is fresh and tender is because three-quarters of it is water, does not contain carbohydrates and dietary fiber, has 10% protein and about 10% fat, but the cholesterol content of pig brain is really too high, a hundred grams of pig brain cholesterol has more than 2500 mg.
Although for most people, do not pay too much attention to the intake of cholesterol in the diet, occasionally eat a meal is no problem, but for some people who are very sensitive to exogenous cholesterol, as well as people with hypercholesterolemia, pig brain or eat less.
In fact, no matter what kind of offal, as long as there is no problem with the ingredients themselves and the processing method, they can be eaten normally, and there is no need to worry so much.
From the perspective of iron supplementation, if the child eats less red meat, you can eat pig liver or pig blood once a week to supplement iron, and the absorption rate of iron and vitamin C will be higher
Therefore, if you make it at home, you must go to regular supermarkets, stores and other channels to buy when purchasing ingredients;
Outside also pay attention to try not to eat on the dirty stall, so as not to encounter lesions or fresh offal, but also pay attention not to eat too much at a time Oh ~ ~
