How to choose jam considers three aspects

As an important "partner" of breakfast bread, jam has always been loved by many people. But in the face of the wide variety of jams in the supermarket, how to choose? Nutritionist Liu Yanjun suggested that when purchasing jam, it is necessary to consider three aspects.

Look at the ingredients: the simpler the ingredients in the ingredient list of jam, the better, you should try to choose jams with only fruit and white sugar, and the content of the fruit is preferably higher than the content of white sugar.

Look at the raw materials: the difference in jam raw materials often means the difference in nutritional value, for example, blueberries are rich in anthocyanins, citrus is rich in flavonoids, and the jam with these fruits as raw materials will be relatively high in anthocyanins or flavonoids.

Look at the state: When picking the jam, you can observe the state of the jam in the bottle. If the jam contains more pectin, the viscosity is moderate and will be semi-flowing. Jams with less color and flavor added or less added are more translucent in color. Jams with more thickeners added have poor fluidity and are generally lumpy.
