As the saying goes, "If you want good skin, you should eat more dates". Of course, there are many ways to eat red dates, which can be cooked in porridge, soup, raw or soaked in water. It is also good to soak in water without adding other materials. According to historical records, jujube is not only a good nutrient, but also a Chinese herbal medicine. It is known as the "king of all kinds of fruits", and not everyone is suitable for it. Here, Bian Xiao leads everyone to understand the traditional Chinese medicine value of jujube.

First, the medicinal value of jujube

Jujube is warm and sweet, and contains protein, fat, sugar, calcium, magnesium and other nutrients and rich vitamin A. There is a folk saying that "eating jujube every day will never make you old". It is a good medicine for nourishing the spleen and stomach, nourishing blood and calming the nerves, treating diseases and strengthening the body. Maternal consumption of red dates can tonify the middle energizer, nourish blood and soothe the nerves, and accelerate the recovery of the body; Eating red dates for the elderly and infirm can enhance physical fitness and delay aging; In particular, some people who are engaged in mental work and neurasthenia can use red dates to cook soup instead of tea, which can rest their minds and stimulate their appetite. People who are famous for their tea addiction will inevitably lose sleep if they drink too much at night. If you use red dates to make soup instead of tea every night, you can avoid the pain of insomnia.

Second, the effect of soaking red dates in water

1, Nourishing blood and enriching blood: According to Ben Jing, a cursive script in China, red dates are sweet and warm, and spleen and stomach meridians have the functions of nourishing the middle energizer, calming the nerves and relaxing the medicinal properties. Modern pharmacological studies have found that red dates can enhance the oxygen content in the blood and nourish the whole body cells.

It is a mild tonic. Jujube can promote the hematopoietic function of human body, so it is very suitable for people with anemia. I suggest you eat more red dates and medlar at ordinary times, which can enhance your vitality and enhance your immune function.

Beauty beauty: Jujube is rich in vitamin C, which can promote the cell metabolism of the skin, prevent the deposition of melanin, make the skin more and more white, tender and smooth, and achieve the beauty effect of whitening and removing spots. If we often cook porridge or soup with red dates, it can promote the hematopoietic function of the human body, effectively prevent anemia and make your skin feel smoother and smoother.

3 Improve immunity and delay aging: From the current medical point of view, jujube contains a lot of sugar, vitamin C, carotene and other ingredients, which has a certain effect on promoting the production of white blood cells and improving the immunity of the body. Because jujube can nourish blood, soothe the nerves and nourish the spleen and stomach, people who are old and weak can eat it regularly to enhance their physique. The effect of delaying aging; If office workers eat it regularly, it can enhance their appetite and relieve their nervousness. Soaking a cup of jujube tea at night is helpful to treat insomnia symptoms.

4 Spleen and stomach, cancer suppression, anti-allergy: Jujube has the functions of spleen and stomach, expelling wind, and has a very ideal effect on treating allergic anemia, hypertension, acute and chronic hepatitis. Jujube contains cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which has a very strong anti-cancer and anti-allergic effect. Jujube China is also rich in anti-fatigue substances, which can enhance people's endurance and reduce the damage of toxic substances to the liver. If you feel weak in the spleen and stomach and weak in diarrhea, you can eat seven red dates every day, which can effectively replenish the middle energizer, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and achieve the effect of stopping diarrhea and stimulating appetite.

Third, these people are not suitable for eating red dates.

First of all, diabetic patients should not eat red dates, because red dates contain a lot of sugar, which will lead to an increase in blood sugar, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease. People who are hot and dry are not suitable for eating red dates, because red dates are warm and easy to get angry when eaten too much. It will also lead to the phenomenon of adding fuel to the fire and make the body hotter. In addition, jujube peel contains high cellulose, so you must chew it fully if you eat it.

Otherwise, it will affect the phenomenon of bad jokes in the stomach, and people with bad stomachs need to pay more attention.

Fourth, red dates should not be eaten more.

Although red dates have many benefits, you can't eat too much. Everything should be enough. If you eat too much at once, it will lead to flatulence. Therefore, it is recommended that you don't eat more, and jujube contains high sugar. A healthy woman needs to consume about 1800 calories every day. So eating 5-6 red dates every day can meet your own needs.

5. How to choose red dates on the market?

First of all, look at the color of red dates. The color of jujube is a little dark and shiny. We can choose bright ones, because dark red dates are usually sweet, because they have plenty of sunshine. I suggest you choose more dark red dates, which will taste good. Secondly, we need to look at the size of red dates. If they are small, there is usually no meat in them and they taste ordinary, but they are big. Secondly, we look at the freshness of dates. If some dates are stored for too long, there will be bugs in them. I suggest you carefully observe the two ends of the dates when choosing them to see if there are wormholes or something. If it is clean, it means there is no wormhole, so you can buy it with confidence.

Sixth, some dietotherapy methods of red dates

1, jujube black-bone chicken soup: longan, medlar, mulberry and other ingredients can be added appropriately, and the effect will be very good. Jujube chicken soup has the effects of nourishing liver and qi, enriching blood and nourishing yin. This method of making soup has a history of hundreds of years.
