Which healthy food is sought after by dieters is actually IQ tax? One: Enzymes
"Eating enzymes can detoxify and lose weight." Now this statement has convinced many people. Enzymes are called IQ tax because they are often promoted to have many magical effects, such as promoting digestion, enhancing immunity and improving skin. However, there is not enough scientific evidence to support these claims.
Can enzymes lose weight?
Enzyme itself has no weight loss function, but it contains probiotics and microorganisms, which can promote intestinal peristalsis, detoxify, resist oxidation and delay aging. Enzyme can eliminate intestinal garbage. So many people will lose weight by excreting intestinal garbage after eating enzymes, but it is the excrement in your stomach that falls, not your own fat. Let's just say you've lost weight, not gained weight. If you take enzymes for a long time, it may have an impact on your early weight. In the later stage, your body needs to be discharged, and your weight will not drop again. Therefore, it is impossible to lose weight with enzymes.
Do enzymes have side effects?
Yes! ! Although enzymes have certain benefits to human body, if they are not suitable for enzymes, they will have many adverse side effects.
1: Homemade fruit enzymes in the market will add a lot of sugar, and these enzymes are not suitable for everyone. Especially for diabetic patients, if they ingest such enzymes, their blood sugar will increase, which is not good for human body.
2. If some people with sensitive physique take too many enzymes, it is easy to cause adverse side effects such as diarrhea and vomiting, which is very harmful to people with sensitive physique.
3. In the process of fermentation, there will be a large number of fermenting bacteria, and people with weak constitution may be affected by fermenting bacteria, which are prone to cold sweat, abdominal pain and other adverse symptoms.
In short, enzymes are not suitable for everyone, and some people will have many adverse side effects after using enzymes.
Two: white kidney beans
Some merchants will grind white kidney beans into powder or extract some ingredients, and publicity will help eliminate excess fat in the body or control blood sugar levels. However, these propaganda often lack scientific basis and may even have side effects in some cases. White kidney beans do not have the function of a big meal savior! It can't achieve the freedom of big meals, nor can it eat and drink!
So here comes the question
1: Kidney bean protein is a kind of protein, its activity is basically affected by gastric acid in the stomach, and it can hardly inhibit α-amylase. Similar to probiotics, now we all use onychomycosis to promote probiotics, that is, let probiotics wear armor and reach the intestine without losing their activity.
2. Even if the activity of 100% is not affected by gastric acid, this product will play the role of a-amylase inhibitor in the later stage of 1000-3000mg. Can you take this effective amount of products?
3. In many white kidney bean products, only the amount of white kidney bean extract is mentioned, but what is the amount of effective ingredients?
4. White kidney beans contain toxic proteins. When it is used to produce white kidney bean extract, in order to get better effective components, it can't take into account the toxic protein of white kidney bean. The toxic protein needs high temperature to be inactivated, and of course it also deactivates the α -amylase inhibitor.
5. White kidney bean A amylase inhibitor only inhibits the absorption of starch, but has no effect on eating fried chicken, drinking milk tea and eating cakes.
Well, based on the above points, white kidney bean is an IQ tax, not a big meal savior, and it can't be eaten for free by everyone!
Three: Fruit and vegetable slices
When I saw the name "fruit and vegetable chips", I thought the calories must be very low? In fact, the dry calories of these vegetables sold in the market are beyond imagination, and there are 357-530 calories per 100 gram of dried mushrooms. Moreover, compared with fresh vegetables, these crispy dried vegetables lose a lot of nutrients such as water and vitamins during processing, and with some extra seasonings such as salt and sugar, eating them will only make you gain weight, which is not conducive to losing weight at all. Proper IQ tax! I ate a bag and gained weight 1 kg! Don't you dare believe it!
Fruit and vegetable slices are called IQ tax for the following reasons.
1. High price: Compared with fresh fruits and vegetables with the same weight, the price of fruit and vegetable chips is much more expensive. This is because the manufacturing process requires special equipment and technology, and the volume will be reduced after processing, resulting in increased costs.
2. Low nutritional value: Although there is the word "fruit and vegetable" in the name, in fact, most brands of fruit and vegetable chips have added a lot of seasonings such as oil, salt and sugar, which makes their nutritional value inferior to that of fresh fruits and vegetables.
3. Advertising misleading: Some brands claim that their products are rich in vitamins, fiber and other nutrients in advertisements, and quote some scientific data to support their claims. But in fact, these data may not be product-specific, or just interpreted from a certain angle.
People are prone to overeating: because of its delicious taste and portability, many people frequently eat fruit and vegetable slices in their daily lives. However, if the intake is too high, it will easily lead to problems such as excessive energy and unbalanced nutrition.
Therefore, although fruit and vegetable chips have advantages in convenience and taste in some aspects, they are called "IQ tax" by many people because of their high price, low nutritional value and misleading advertisements.
All three are legitimate IQ taxes. If you really want to lose weight, the most important thing is to "shut up and open your legs"!
