Eating konjac for a long time may cause fatigue and dizziness.
Eating konjac does have a certain weight loss effect, but improper use of konjac weight loss methods will lead to serious sequelae. You Weiming, a nutritionist, said that Amorphophallus konjac is characterized by indigestion, swelling in water, low calorie, and a large amount of water-soluble fiber, but it lacks important nutrients such as sugar, protein and fat. If people who lose weight eat konjac for a long time, they will soon have symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness and physical discomfort.
In addition, Amorphophallus konjac is not easy to digest, and it must be fully chewed and eaten before it can enter the small intestine from the stomach. If the whole tablet is swallowed by mistake, it will cause gastrointestinal obstruction, and severe cases must be removed by surgery. Therefore, the elderly and children should be especially careful when eating konjac-related foods.
The nutritional value of konjac is very low, and the calorie is about 40 calories.
Knowing the characteristics of konjac, everyone is also very curious about what nutrients konjac has. The raw material of konjac is the tuber of Araceae. Tuber slices are dried and ground into powder, which is konjac powder. After adding water, it can be solidified into a solid with a Q-bomb flavor. After different processing, it has become a common konjac rice, konjac noodles and konjac strips on the market.
The nutritional value of konjac is very low, the main component is 90-95% water, so the calorie is about 40 calories, but the water-soluble dietary fiber is very high. Therefore, eating konjac correctly is very helpful for constipation, blood lipid control, blood sugar control and weight loss. Domestic studies have found that taking 4.5 grams of konjac flour every day for three weeks is helpful to improve the blood sugar and intestinal physiological function of healthy people and constipation patients.
But konjac is not suitable as a staple food for dinner. If a large amount of konjac is ingested, it will lead to insufficient nutrition intake, anemia, dizziness, fatigue and other discomfort symptoms. Therefore, the correct way to eat konjac is to suggest using konjac instead of 1/2 starch or a vegetable, which can reduce the calories of a meal, improve dietary fiber and intake appropriate nutrients. After all, we still need enough nutrition to live a healthy life.
Potatoes are the staple food to avoid excessive sugar intake and fat accumulation.
In addition to konjac, some people who lose weight are used to eating potatoes as their staple food. They also think that potatoes can also increase satiety, which is better than konjac?
Nutritionist You Weiming said that potatoes belong to whole grains, including sweet potatoes, taro, pumpkins and beans. It mainly provides the sugar needed by the human body to preserve protein and fat in the body. In fact, modern people's intake of sugar is quite easy to overdo, resulting in too many calories in the body to be used up, which is converted into fat accumulation in the abdomen. Therefore, eating konjac with potatoes not only reduces calorie intake, but also increases more dietary fiber, which is more helpful for environmental protection in the body.
The suitable intake of konjac per meal is 100g.
Amorphophallus konjac is a kind of indigestible food, which can only be eaten after full chewing, otherwise it will be easily blocked in the stomach, so the elderly, children and indigestion should be especially careful when eating. The consumption of konjac per meal is100g, but too much will lead to insufficient intake of other important nutrients. After moderate seasoning and processing, the calories of konjac will be greatly increased, because the more delicious it is, the more you eat. If there is no proper intake of water, intestinal feces will dry up and cause constipation.
People who want to lose weight completely by konjac must pay attention to the fact that carbohydrates are the fuel to maintain normal human activities. Cells, muscles, organs and brains in our body all need to rely on carbohydrates, and konjac itself is 90-95% water, which can't maintain a healthy function after long-term consumption! Therefore, konjac is most suitable as a supporting role to replace some starch or vegetables, and at the same time, the body can get enough nutrition from various foods to maintain normal physiological functions, which is the safest method for konjac to lose weight.
The harm of konjac noodles to weight loss
Konjac contains 16 kinds of amino acids, 10 kinds of mineral trace elements and rich dietary fiber, but the human body needs more than these nutrients, especially for dieters, it can be eaten in moderation. Regarding recipes, the correct diet should be high in protein, high in fiber, low in sugar, low in water and moderate in fat, so as to ensure your balanced nutrition and not reduce your metabolism. I suggest you eat soy products, milk and fish and poultry in moderation to supplement the protein needed by the human body; Eat more dark vegetables and low-sugar and low-calorie fruits (apples and pears) and supplement soluble dietary fiber; Reduce the intake of staple foods (rice, flour, bread, steamed stuffed bun) and maintain a low-sugar diet. The daily intake of carbohydrates is about 100g-200g. At the same time, it should be noted that the distribution of carbohydrates in three meals should be inverted pyramid, that is, the carbohydrate intake in breakfast is the highest, followed by lunch and dinner. Eating konjac with these essential dietary fiber foods can improve your intestinal flora and make you not rely on junk food. Then talk about sports. It is recommended to do aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise is a good way to lose weight. For example, jogging for 30-45 minutes, combined with the correct fat-reducing diet, can achieve the effect of reducing fat. 30 minutes before exercise, you can try to drink some sports drinks containing tea polyphenols to accelerate fat burning and lose weight faster.
If the daily intake is reduced, but not hungry, it will consume the nutrients stored in the body, leading to ischemic anemia, calcium deficiency, osteoporosis, kidney problems, hepatopancreatic problems and cholecystitis. There are examples around me, so I have been afraid to diet and lose weight. I must eat and have sufficient nutrition, so that I can be healthy. Don't eat only one kind of food, so it is easier to get fat if the nutrition is unbalanced. Konjac noodles can't be eaten all the time. You can eat miscellaneous grains noodles, corn flour and so on. Don't eat every day. If I eat that thing, it will be bad for my health and my stomach will be very upset.
