In addition, you can also add some sugarcane juice when drinking red wine, which not only tastes better but also helps alleviate the symptoms of chronic gastritis, as well as stomach upset symptoms such as nausea and vomiting.
However, because the sugar content in sugarcane juice is particularly high, it is not recommended to drink too much at one time, otherwise it is easy to cause blood sugar to rise, especially for diabetic patients, and sugarcane juice cannot be drunk casually, otherwise it is easy to affect the glycemic index.
2. Prevent and treat dental disease and protect the throat

Because the nature of sugarcane is relatively mild, rich in a large number of vitamins and water, it also has a certain detoxification effect. In particular, a large amount of fibrous tissue in sugarcane can effectively stimulate the intestine, if you usually drink sugarcane juice, then not only can you moisten the intestines and laxative, but also help the intestines detoxify. However, since sugarcane is also a food that is easy to make the body on fire, you should usually try to control the amount of sugarcane juice you drink.
