About oranges,
Previously, there was also a saying that oranges were nutritious and should be eaten.
Are these really true?
Zhu Yi, associate professor of the College of Food Science of China Agricultural University, said,
Eating too many oranges does make the skin yellow, a phenomenon also called "hypercaroteneemia" and "citrus peel disease".
"After eating some foods with a lot of carotene, such as citrus, carrots, pumpkins, tomatoes, broccoli and other things, it will cause yellow skin stains." But it is different from our usual jaundice, caused by liver disease (jaundice), its sclera is yellow, it (citrus aurantium) skin is yellow, but its sclera is not yellow.
If such a situation occurs, no special treatment is needed, as long as the intake of carotene is reduced, or it is completely stopped, and the skin will basically return to its original state after a month (about) stop. ”
In addition, is the white silk on the orange petal really nutritious?
Zhu Yi said that oranges are rich in dietary fiber,
Good for the stomach and intestines,
But don't eat it deliberately.
Orange network is mainly water and dietary fiber, there are also some plant polyphenols, there are some nutrients, but there is no magical effect, there is no need to exaggerate the nutritional value, and even let everyone not throw it away. The amount of oranges is too small, the taste is not good, and it does not matter whether you eat it or not.
Since oranges are rich in organic acids, it is best to eat oranges after meals, and eat oranges one by one, which is more conducive to blood sugar stability than squeezing them into juice.

The reporter asked Dr. Xia Yongliang, deputy director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who confirmed that if you eat too many oranges, your skin will indeed turn yellow.
At this time of year,
Will encounter some
Patients who come to be treated because of yellow skin,
Among these people are mainly children,
People who come to the doctor often worry about acute hepatitis at first.
Later, I learned that it was caused by eating too many oranges.
The most obvious manifestation of this type of situation is
Yellowing in the palms of your hands and feet.
This is because,
Oranges are rich in carotene,
Long-term consumption in large quantities,
Carotene enters the body,
In cases where the liver cannot fully process its metabolism,
The concentration of carotene in the blood will be too high,
This results in a yellow or orange skin.
Medically,
This type of symptom has a professional name:
"Orange disease".
Dr. Xia said that patients with "orange disease" do not need special diagnosis and treatment, as long as they drink more water and excrete too much carotene in the body. Usually after 4-6 weeks, the yellowing of the skin will improve.
