Peach gum has aroused widespread concern, that is, in recent years, and it is still very popular. It was fried into "network celebrity food" and was known as "civilian bird's nest" and so on. In fact, from a medical point of view, peach gum is nothing more than several functions of replenishing water, moistening intestines and slimming, and there is no special effect and use. Ladies who love beauty should not regard it as a "panacea", even if peach gum has the effect of clearing heat and relaxing bowels. However, I suggest that you should not think that the more you eat, the better, but use it in moderation so as not to affect your health.
Peach gum is a kind of chewing gum, which has no nutrition. People used to glue things with peaches, such as mounting. Gum is often used to make sticky things, or as an auxiliary material for some drugs. There are many kinds of chewing gum, and peach gum is just one of them. In the past, when people were short of food, they didn't eat peach gum, but used it as an adhesive. It can be seen that peach gum is not suitable for eating. Now that people have a good life, they will eat peach gum instead. Do you find it strange? Obviously fooled.
Some people say that peach gum contains collagen, which is even more outrageous. Collagen is an animal protein, which can only be synthesized by animals. Things from plants and fungi, no matter how sticky they look, do not contain collagen. What tremella, fungus, snow swallow, do not contain collagen. Moreover, although collagen is not a high-quality protein, it is not as nutritious as eggs and meat.
The main component of peach gum is polysaccharide, which is not easy to digest and absorb. The advantage of not absorbing is that you don't have to worry about getting fat like eating starch, and you can also promote defecation. But from this point of view, it is enough for you to eat vegetables, fruits and coarse grains to get dietary fiber. Why spend money on peach gum?
What is even more worrying is that peach gum is neither a conventional food nor a medicine, so it is difficult to have reliable indicators, but it is not as safe as ordinary food. If heavy metals or other harmful substances exceed the standard, you will not only spend more money but also suffer losses. There is really no need to spend money on this useless thing to eat.
