A few days ago, my second daughter brought a bucket of cheese sauce and told the elderly to eat more sesame sauce, which is good for their health. I'm dubious. I always thought that thing was grease. What's delicious? I have high blood pressure, heart disease, atherosclerosis and unstable blood sugar. It's definitely not good to eat that thing It is only used when mixing cold dishes or eating cold noodles in summer, but not at all in winter. However, when listening to the radio this morning, a health care program mentioned the health care function of sauce. So, with the attitude of verification, I turned on the computer Baidu, and sure enough, there was information about the efficacy of sesame sauce. My excerpt is as follows: "A spoonful of sesame paste has a powerful nutritional function" According to modern family news reports, fish is very nutritious and ranks among the best in meat products. However, it is hard for you to think that the common sesame paste and fish have the same nutritional components, and they have many similar nutritional functions in diet therapy and health care. 1. Brain strengthening: Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids rich in fish are called "brain gold", which is very beneficial to children's brain strengthening and intellectual development. Sesame paste also has a good brain-nourishing effect, because it is rich in unsaturated fatty acids like fish. The fatty acid content of sesame sauce per 100g is more than three times that of yellow croaker100g and 33 times that of grass carp! Second, protect the heart and lower blood fat: Eating fish can protect the heart and cardiovascular system, and these benefits are also brought by the rich unsaturated fatty acids in fish. The rich unsaturated fatty acids in sesame sauce also have the same effect. A spoonful of sesame sauce (about 20 grams) contains more than half a catty of grass carp and carp! Third, calcium experts: the calcium content in sesame sauce is also relatively high. Every100g of sesame sauce contains 612mg of calcium, which is much higher than milk, tofu and other common calcium-supplemented foods. Fourth, nourishing blood: Sesame paste is also rich in iron and folic acid. Iron and folic acid are both indispensable raw materials for hematopoiesis. Nearly14 people in China suffer from iron deficiency anemia and need to supplement iron-rich foods. 5. Prevention of diabetes and hypertension: the content of zinc and potassium in sesame paste is also high, which has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on diabetes and hypertension: zinc participates in the synthesis and degradation of insulin; Potassium can relax blood vessels and promote sodium excretion, which is beneficial to blood pressure health. Six, anti-oxidation, anti-deformation: there are two vitamins in sesame sauce, one is vitamin E, and the other is folic acid. The former has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, so eating sesame paste often can improve the body's disease resistance and delay aging; Folic acid is not only a raw material for hematopoiesis, but also an indispensable nutrient for fetal neural tube development. When preparing for pregnancy, women eat sesame paste every day until they are pregnant for 3 months, which can avoid neural tube malformation in the fetus. After reading the above information, I relieved my worries and corrected my prejudice. Now I think I can eat a little often if I can, but I must not overdo it. After all, it is greasy food.
