1, eat bitter gourd raw without losing weight
Experts pointed out that bitter gourd is rich in nutrition, among which the content of vitamin C ranks first among melons and vegetables, and the content of sugar and fat is very low, which is more suitable for obese people. However, eating a lot of raw bitter gourd to lose weight is not only unscientific, but also has certain health risks.
Although modern research shows that bitter gourd can reduce cholesterol and triglycerides and is suitable for patients with hyperlipidemia, it does not mean that bitter gourd has the effect of losing weight, because obesity and hyperlipidemia are not the same thing. On the contrary, the study also found that bitter gourd can hinder the decomposition of fat. It can be seen that eating 2-3 bitter melons raw every day can not remove excess fat.
Especially for pregnant women, you should not eat a lot of bitter gourd to lose weight, otherwise it will directly affect your reproductive health.

Animal experiments show that this protein can resist the normal development of sperm and reduce the pregnancy rate.
Finally, experts also pointed out that bitter gourd tastes bitter and cold, and eating more is easy to lead to spleen and stomach failure, so it is best not to eat on an empty stomach, and patients with spleen and stomach deficiency and chronic gastroenteritis should eat less or not. In addition, during the menstrual period, you should also temporarily keep a distance from bitter gourd.
