Oranges - "auspicious fruit" eat too much skin will turn yellow? Be careful to distinguish from this disease
In The Guangdong region, "orange" is similar to the pronunciation of "ji", so oranges are considered to be "auspicious fruits" during the New Year, and oranges are indispensable in every household's New Year fruit. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, we will eat more oranges, and many people are worried about becoming a "minion", afraid that they will never fade and have damage to the body, so let me tell you about it:
1. Why do oranges turn yellow when they eat them, and what other fruits are the same? - Because oranges are rich in carotene, the key to eating oranges to become a "minion" is excessive carotene intake. Under normal circumstances, after carotene is absorbed by the human body, part of it is converted into vitamin A in the intestinal mucosa, and the untransformed is stored in the blood, and some of it is converted in the liver and other parts, so the ingestion of too much carotene or the transformation of carotene is obstructed, which will lead to too high carotene content in the blood (more than 250 μg%), which can make normal skin yellow. In addition to oranges, which contain high carotene, there are also carrots, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, mangoes and so on. Note: Yellowing of the skin and non-yellowing of the sclera are its most important features. Because the cuticle of the skin contains a large amount of lipids that have an affinity for carotene, the carotene pigment is concentrated in the stratum corneum. In general, the skin on the soles of the hands and feet will turn yellow significantly, and in severe cases, the skin of the whole body will also turn yellow.
2. Will I become a "minion" if I eat one or two oranges a day? Studies have shown that with a daily intake of 30 mg of carotene for 4-7 weeks, it is possible for the skin to turn yellow. This is equivalent to eating about 20 oranges a day for a month. Therefore, eating one or two oranges a day does not need to worry about becoming a "minion".
3. Is this yellow stain harmful to the body? ——The yellow staining of the skin caused by eating high carotene foods is only temporary, and if you do not eat it for a period of time, or reduce your consumption, you will slowly fade yellowing, and you can accelerate yellowing by drinking more water.
4. Usually, if the skin turns yellow, do you care at all? - No, if we do not eat more high-carotene foods every day, we need to be vigilant and distinguish between a disease: jaundice, also known as hyperbilirubinemia, which is common in newborns (physiological jaundice) and slowly subsides shortly after birth. Distinction: people with hypercaroteneemia still maintain a normal white color of the sclera, jaundice in addition to yellow skin, the sclera (eyes) will also become yellow, if you consider jaundice, you have to go to the hospital in time.
5. What other fruits may cause color changes? Dragon fruit causes pink urine and red stools, and many mothers are shocked when they see their children. Watermelon causes red stools, spinach causes green stools; mulberries eat like blood basins [cover your face]
