It's just that in reality, there are many people who often drink with goji berries soaked in water, but there is no effect, but there will be some discomfort, what is going on?
First, the water temperature is too high
Goji berries are not heat tolerant, and in reality, most people use boiling water when soaking goji berries in water.
In this way, a large number of vitamins contained in goji berries, as well as nutrients such as betaine and carotene, will be quickly decomposed at high temperatures. Then, the goji berry water brewed in this way has no health effect on the body.
When soaking in water with goji berries, the water temperature should be controlled at about 50 degrees, so that the nutrients in goji berries will not be lost, so as to bring a certain maintenance effect to the body.
2. Drink overnight
There are many people who like to soak some goji berry water in a glass, drink some when they think about it, and even add some hot water to continue drinking the next day, which is wrong.
When goji berries are soaked for a while, the nutrients are almost gone. And after a long time of immersion, some nutrients contained in goji berries, such as vitamins, goji berry polysaccharides, etc., will also be decomposed by microorganisms, and will produce some bacteria due to long-term exposure to the air, which is harmful to health.
Therefore, drink goji berries as soon as possible after soaking in water, and after more than 10 hours, do not continue to drink, let alone drink overnight goji berry water.
Third, it is not symptomatic
Goji berries do have a lot of health effects on human health, but it does not mean that goji berries are suitable for anyone. Goji berries are warm, if the body belongs to a hot constitution, such as people who are often on fire, if you drink with goji berries soaked in water, it will only lead to greater fire in the body.
In addition, people who have inflammation in the body or are catching a cold or fever, if they drink it with goji berry soaked water, it will make the inflammation and fever symptoms more serious, not only has no health effect, but also causes a series of harm to the body.
In addition, healthy men generally have more fire in their bodies, and if they drink goji berry water occasionally, the problem is not big. However, if you drink goji berry water every day, it will lead to strong fire in the body, and it is easy to have discomfort such as body heat.
Fourth, the three high is unstable
Although goji berry soaking water has the effect of reducing the three highs, if you drink goji berry water when the three highs are unstable, there will be a rapid increase in blood pressure.
In addition, patients with high blood sugar should not drink goji berry water when blood sugar is high. Although the goji polysaccharides contained in goji berries can indeed play a hypoglycemic effect, but goji berries contain some sugar, if when blood sugar rises, drinking with goji berries soaked in water will cause blood sugar to rise.
And goji berries are warm, if you drink too much will make the body too hot, which will aggravate the symptoms for patients with high blood sugar and high blood pressure and high blood lipids.
To sum up, goji berry soaking water can indeed have a health care effect on the human body, but if it is not symptomatic, it is harmful to health and not beneficial, and when soaking water with goji berries, pay attention to the water temperature and soaking time.
In addition, when using goji berries to soak water, do not mix with tea, the ingredients in tea and betaine and other elements in goji berries will produce substances that are difficult for the human body to digest, which directly affects the nutritional value and medicinal value of goji berries.
