Compared with common nuts, the proportion of dietary fiber, total fat and fatty acid in peanuts is almost the same. However, the contents of protein and vitamin B 1 are relatively high, while the content of nicotinic acid is surprisingly high.
Many people may not understand nicotinic acid, which can reduce "bad" cholesterol and increase "good" cholesterol to a certain extent, and can help the human body to better regulate blood lipids and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
But the nutritionist in the explosion nutrition class should remind everyone that eating peanuts is also particular. If you make the following three mistakes, it is likely to be harmful to your health:
1, don't choose moldy peanuts:
Peanut is a kind of easily moldy nut. Some people can't eat it all at once after buying it, and the next time they want to eat it, it's probably a few weeks later.
And if you find that peanuts are moldy, throw them away quickly, because they may contain a lot of aflatoxin.
You know, aflatoxin has long been listed as 1 carcinogen by the Cancer Institute of the World Health Organization (WHO), and it is a highly toxic substance.
2. Try not to eat over-processed peanuts:
If you cook by yourself, many people especially like to eat fried peanuts, while if you buy packaged food, many people like sweet and salty peanut products.
But the nutritionist in the explosion nutrition class told everyone that from the health point of view, it is best to eat whole plain peanuts. Overprocessed peanut products are easy to cause harm to the body because of their high salt, oil and sugar.
The bought peanuts can be directly boiled, dry fried or made into mature vinegar peanuts, which is very healthy.
3, eat peanuts avoid excessive:
All nuts basically have a common problem, that is, they are easily "addictive" to eat, and peanuts are no exception.
However, as a kind of nut with high fat content, once eaten too much, peanuts can easily lead to excessive calories, which will lead to obesity. I believe everyone knows that as long as people gain weight, various chronic diseases will come to you, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes.
So how many peanuts can you eat a day? The Dietary Guide for China Residents suggests that it is more appropriate to eat 25-35g of soybeans and nuts every day, including beans in three meals, and eat about 20 extra peanuts every day.
