So, what are the misunderstandings you have to know about eating watermelon to lose weight?
The misunderstanding of eating watermelon to lose weight in summer
To lose weight, watermelon can't be eaten as a meal. Although watermelon is more than 94% water, its sugar content is relatively high. Watermelon with normal sweetness contains 5% sugar, so it brings high calories. The calorie of watermelon is 250 kcal/kg. That is to say, if you eat a big watermelon every day, it is about 8 ~ 10 kg, which means you eat 1000 ~ 1250 calories, while the average small bowl of rice has about 200 calories. In other words, eating a watermelon is equivalent to eating five or six bowls of rice. In addition, watermelon is a cold thing, and eating too much at a time is easy to hurt the spleen and stomach. People with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, dyspepsia and loose stool should eat less, otherwise it will lead to abdominal distension and diarrhea, loss of appetite, accumulation of cold and dampness. Watermelon contains a lot of water, which will dilute gastric juice, cause indigestion and decrease gastrointestinal resistance.
To lose weight, don't eat too much watermelon before going to bed. Watermelon is rich in sugar. If you eat too much before going to bed at night, it will increase insulin and promote fat synthesis. Most of the newly synthesized fat in the human body is stored in the abdomen, so the amount of exercise at night is reduced, and the fat is only stored and not consumed. After a long time, the belly will grow out.
To lose weight, you can't use watermelon instead of three meals a day. Watermelon has many benefits, but its nutrients are relatively simple, with only a small amount of protein and cellulose, and the rest are sugar and water. The normal metabolism of human body needs a lot of protein and various nutrients every day, so it is not appropriate to use watermelon instead of three meals a day to lose weight.
Finally, teach you how to choose watermelons.
Tips for purchasing watermelon
Look at the melon skin: the melon with flower skin should have clear lines and distinct shades. Watermelons with neat lines are good melons. It is best to choose turquoise as the color, not white fog. Black melon should be black and shiny. Generally, the vertical stripes of watermelon should be wide and the horizontal stripes should be dense, indicating that watermelon is growing well and mature enough.
Look at the vines: just look at the so-called stems. If the vine on the pedicle is a line, it is a bad melon. If the vine curls up, it is a first-class melon. Secondly, look at the dryness of melon vines. If the vines are dry, the watermelon is ripe. If the melon vine is still green, then tell us that the melon is still mature.
Look at the navel: There is a small circle at the bottom of each watermelon, just like the navel of the human body. The smaller this part, the thinner the watermelon skin and the better the taste. On the contrary, the bigger the navel, the thicker the skin and the worse the taste. In addition, the navel of the melon should be contracted as much as possible, because this is a sign that the melon is ripe and will fall.
Look at the melon surface: the surface of the ripe melon is very smooth, and the melon lines are blue-black, evenly distributed and neat.
