What is equivalent to paying IQ tax?
IQ tax, also known as low IQ tax, is a popular word on the Internet. It refers to the lack of judgment when shopping, that is, the performance of low IQ, and the money spent is considered as a low IQ tax.

In recent years, the concept of health care has become more and more popular, and various health care products have sprung up. These health care products are all under the banner of "enhancing immunity, anti-aging, lowering three highs, relaxing bowels, detoxifying, beauty beauty and slimming", but in fact, these health care products are not very helpful to health, and they are particularly expensive, and they can't slim down anywhere except wallets.

Green juice

Merchants claim that green juice can regulate blood pH, supplement dietary fiber, and is rich in protein and minerals.

I don't know why, there are always people who wish they were more alkaline. There is a simple way: just quarrel. When you are emotional, your breathing will become shallow and fast, and you will exhale more carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is an important buffering substance, which is responsible for maintaining the pH value of human body in a suitable range. Once too much carbon dioxide is lost, it will cause alkalosis and cause fainting.

In other words, it's just that the green juice can't change the pH value. If possible, I'm afraid someone will be hospitalized for this.

As for nutritional components, the Institute of Health and Environmental Medicine of Tianjin Academy of Military Medical Sciences has studied wheat seedlings, and both protein and main minerals are inferior to soybeans. In addition, beans are an excellent source of dietary fiber. In contrast, wheat seedlings, vegetables and fruits are not so juicy.

Healthy cola

The so-called healthy cola is to replace sucrose with artificial sweeteners and then add indigestible dextrin. Not long ago, the British Medical Journal just published a review. According to dozens of existing studies, artificial sweeteners can neither lose weight nor endanger health. Indigestible dextrin is a kind of dietary fiber, which is processed from starch. The Reference Intake of Dietary Nutrients for China Residents suggests that the daily intake of dietary fiber is 25 to 30 grams, while the content of healthy cola is 5 grams per can.

Generally speaking, healthy coke is slightly better than ordinary coke, after all, it contains dietary fiber. But considering the harm of carbonic acid to teeth, it is unrealistic to drink less and hope to lose weight by it.

collagen

There are many products related to collagen, and many people also like to eat some foods rich in collagen, hoping to have firm and smooth skin.

In fact, there are three major contributors to firm and smooth skin: collagen and elastic fibers are interwoven into a net, and fat pads are filled in it. Among the three heroes, fat is the most talkative and will change with weight; Elastic fiber is the most troublesome. They form at about one year old, and then they will only decrease, but will not increase for life.

Collagen is in between. On the one hand, we have the ability to synthesize collagen. On the other hand, this synthesis is influenced by many factors, such as tobacco, sex hormones, blood sugar, sun exposure and so on. It may not be sent to the skin after synthesis. Bone and cornea also need collagen.

In other words, the collagen in food will not be sent to the skin as it is, but will be decomposed first and then synthesized. As for the new
