What should I pay attention to when eating honey? What are the taboos of honey health care?
Honey is a very common drink. I believe everyone should know that many people like to eat honey, especially female friends. Honey has high nutritional value, which is not only good for health, but also good for beauty and skin care. Do you know what taboos honey has? Below, I will give you a detailed introduction to the taboos of honey.

1, the taboo of honey

1. Honey can't be drunk with boiled water.

Honey is rich in enzymes, vitamins and minerals. If you drink with boiled water, it will not only maintain its natural color, fragrance and taste, but also destroy its nutrients to varying degrees. Therefore, it is best to drink with warm water not exceeding 35℃.

Experiments show that when honey is heated to 67℃ for a long time, the amylase in honey will decompose, the color will become darker, and the vitamin C in honey will be destroyed 1/5 to 1/2.

Excessive water temperature will destroy the nutrients of honey.

The water for making honey should be warm boiled water. Honey contains a variety of amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients. If the water temperature is too high, these substances will be destroyed to varying degrees. Therefore, edible honey can neither be boiled nor drunk with boiled water.

Honey can't be eaten with onions.

The nutritional composition of honey is complicated. When onion and honey are eaten together, organic acids and enzymes in honey meet sulfur-containing amino acids in onion, which will cause harmful biochemical reactions or produce toxic substances, stimulate gastrointestinal tract and lead to diarrhea.

It is recorded in ancient medical books that onions and honey can't be eaten together. After honey and onion are eaten together, symptoms of acute gastroenteritis such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea appear. Eating honey and onions together will hurt your eyes.

Eating honey and onions together can easily cause acute gastroenteritis.

When organic acids and enzymes in honey meet sulfur-containing amino acids in onions, they will have biochemical reactions in the human body, which will only affect the absorption between components. If the spleen and stomach are weak, people will have diarrhea as analyzed above. If the spleen and stomach are good, they will not feel uncomfortable.

Honey can't be eaten with leeks.

Leek is rich in vitamin C, which is easily oxidized by copper and iron in honey and loses its function.

In addition, honey can relieve constipation, and leeks are rich in cellulose and induce diarrhea. Eating together is easy to cause diarrhea.

4. Honey should not be eaten with soybean milk.

Protein content is higher than milk, while honey mainly contains about 75% glucose and fructose, and also contains a small amount of organic acids.

When they are mixed, organic acids combine with protein to produce denatured precipitate, which cannot be absorbed by human body. The correct way to eat honey is to take it with warm water at 40℃~50℃.

Honey cannot be eaten with tofu.

Tofu is sweet, salty and cold, which can clear away heat and disperse blood. Eating with honey is easy to have diarrhea.

At the same time, many enzymes in honey, many minerals in tofu, plant proteins, organic acids and so on. , are not conducive to the biochemical reaction of the human body.

6. Avoid touching metal objects during storage.

Honey is acidic, so don't use metal containers when storing it to avoid chemical reactions. In addition, honey crystallization is a normal phenomenon, which has nothing to do with quality.

When storing honey, avoid touching metal objects.

Keep the container closed after eating, honey has strong hygroscopicity and taste absorption. Avoid moisture and odor, so honey will ferment and deteriorate. Storage temperature should not be too high, so as not to destroy nutrients.

7. Don't bring more clothes

Because glucose and fructose in honey are monosaccharides, they can be directly absorbed into the blood by the human body. If you eat a lot of honey at a time, your blood sugar can rise rapidly. Long-term excessive consumption of honey will lead to insufficient insulin secretion and easily lead to diabetes.

Eating more honey can lead to diabetes.

How much honey should I eat? -There is no standard statement at present. But from the clinical practice, it is appropriate for normal adults to take about 1~2 spoonfuls a day. Honey is relatively safe. If the dosage needs to be temporarily increased due to special circumstances, it should be less than 50 grams per day.

8. It is unhealthy to drink honey with the first glass of water in the morning.

Many people think that drinking a cup of light honey water on an empty stomach in the morning will not only relax the bowels, but also get angry. But in fact, this practice is not desirable. Honey water contains corresponding sugar, not in the form of pure water.

After drinking, fructose in honey must be converted into glucose by human metabolism before it can be absorbed and utilized by human body, thus losing the function of cleaning the internal environment of the body with the first glass of water in the morning.

It is unhealthy to drink a cup of honey water in the morning.

Moreover, honey, as the first glass of water, can not effectively replenish the water of body cells, and the urination time is relatively slower than that of boiled water, which reduces the efficacy of detoxification in the body. At this time, the body did not remove waste, but began to accept new substances. When the new substance is mixed with the waste residue, it shows the metabolic absorption process of the new and old mixed substances in the body, and the nutrients of honey can not be well obtained, and the metabolism of the residue is even worse for health.

2. The magical effect of honey

1. Recover fatigue, especially after staying up late: Among all natural foods, honey is the most energy needed for brain ejaculation. Fructose and glucose in honey can be quickly absorbed and utilized by human body, improving the nutritional status of blood.

2. Eliminate food accumulation after a big meal: Honey can promote the normal secretion of gastric acid and enhance intestinal peristalsis. A cup of honey water on an empty stomach every morning and evening can obviously shorten the defecation time.

3. Runfei: Honey has the functions of diminishing inflammation and resolving phlegm, moistening lung and relieving cough, and loquat honey has the best effect of relieving cough.

4. hangover: honey contains a kind of fructose that most fruits don't have, which can promote the decomposition and absorption of alcohol, help to sober up quickly and relieve headaches after drinking.

5. Let excited nerves sleep peacefully: Glucose, vitamins, magnesium, phosphorus and calcium in honey can regulate the function of nervous system, relieve nervous tension and promote sleep. Moreover, honey has no side effects such as depression, fatigue and distraction that other drugs have. The sedative effect of apple honey is the most prominent.

6. Treatment of accidental wounds: The acidity of honey after sugar removal is equivalent to vinegar, which can make bacteria unable to survive in the wound site. Even if there are no germs, the swelling and pain of the wound will be greatly reduced under its action, which can eliminate dead muscles and accelerate wound healing.

7. Soothes the mood: Honey is the most ideal skin care product. It can provide nutrition for the skin, make it elastic, kill or inhibit bacteria attached to the skin surface, eliminate pigmentation of the skin and promote skin regeneration.

8. Protect wild heart: honey can nourish myocardium, improve its metabolic function, increase hemoglobin, relax cardiovascular system, prevent blood agglutination and ensure normal blood circulation.
