Does brown sugar treat dysmenorrhea? Many women will drink brown sugar water during menstruation, especially during dysmenorrhea, thinking that drinking brown sugar water will be fine. However, the fact is that brown sugar water does not have much effect on dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea is mainly divided into primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea belongs to dysmenorrhea without organic lesions, accounting for more than 90% of dysmenorrhea. Secondary dysmenorrhea refers to dysmenorrhea caused by pelvic organic diseases.
The dysmenorrhea we usually talk about is mainly primary dysmenorrhea. Generally speaking, the increase of prostaglandin level causes excessive contraction of uterine smooth muscle and vasospasm, which leads to uterine ischemia and hypoxia, thus causing dysmenorrhea symptoms. This situation usually lasts for 2~3 days.
At present, there is no clear consumption regulation in China indicating what brown sugar is. At present, the brown sugar used in menstrual period refers to crude sugar, which is the product of low-temperature evaporation and crystallization of sugarcane juice, and has no effect on the secretion of prostaglandin in human body, that is to say, brown sugar can not relieve dysmenorrhea.
Q: Then why do some people feel dysmenorrhea relieved after drinking brown sugar water? Answer: Because it is hot water!
Can brown sugar replenish blood? It is often said that drinking brown sugar water can replenish blood because it contains iron! However, the fact is: almost useless! According to the test data of China Food Composition Table, as high as 96.6% of the components in brown sugar are sugars, and the iron content in brown sugar is very small. The data showed that the iron content in brown sugar per 100g was only 2.2 mg, while the iron content in pig liver of the same quality reached 22.6mg.
100g of some minerals in brown sugar
100g pig liver contains some minerals, and the iron absorption rate of plant food is low (1%~7%), while that of animal food can reach 20%. Therefore, if you want to rely on brown sugar to supplement iron, you need to eat 2 kilograms a day. It is not reliable to supplement blood with brown sugar. Drinking brown sugar water is to supplement sugar at most.
There is little difference between brown sugar and white sugar. Many people think brown sugar is better than white sugar. On the one hand, I believe in the so-called "health care function" of brown sugar; on the other hand,
Brown sugar is more expensive than sugar. Compared with white sugar, brown sugar is only dark in color, low in purity and rich in impurities. Although the value of brown sugar is higher, the gap is very small. According to the test data of China Food Composition Table, the sugar content of white sugar is 99.9%, soft candy is 98.9%, and brown sugar is 96.6%. It can be seen that they are all high-sugar foods. They are also high in calories. The nutritional difference between brown sugar and white sugar is that the content of calcium, iron, zinc, copper and manganese in brown sugar is higher than that in white sugar because it retains more components in sugarcane. But this kind of "nutrition" is easy to obtain in other foods. Compared with fruits and vegetables, the "nutritional value" of brown sugar is not worth mentioning at all. Every 100 grams of brown sugar is nutritious,
Can only be calculated in milligrams. It is unhealthy to consume a lot of sugar in order to obtain these sporadic trace elements.
In essence, white sugar and brown sugar are both sugars, and each gram of sugar provides 4 kilocalories of energy. If you eat too much and can't consume it in time, they will all make blood sugar rise rapidly, and eating polysaccharide will also increase the risk of dental caries and obesity. Obese people are more likely to suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and heart disease.
Too much brown sugar is harmful! Dietary Guidelines for China Residents suggest that a person's daily sugar intake should be controlled within 50g.
The healthiest standard is below 25 grams. In fact, the sugar we unconsciously consume every day has already exceeded the standard. For example, drinking a can of 330 ml coke can consume about 35 grams of sugar; Drinking a bottle of 430 ml fruit juice will consume about 45 grams of sugar; The sugar content of several sweet biscuits is about 10g. If you eat 10g ice cream, there may be nearly 20g of sugar. WHO survey shows that excessive intake of sugar is more harmful than smoking.
Swedish scientists conducted a nine-year follow-up survey of 80,000 participants. The results show that compared with people who seldom drink sweet drinks,
The risk of pancreatic cancer is 90% higher for people who drink two cups of sweet drinks every day, 70% higher for people who eat 5 teaspoons of sugar every day, and 50% higher for people who eat bread slices with sweet water jam every day.
So people who expect to drink brown sugar water for health may be feeding cancer cells!
