The super fruit "cranberry", known as "North American Red Basil", is not only because of its unique sweet and sour flavor, but also contains rich nutrients, which brings many benefits to human health. The Medical Prevention and Medical Development Association pointed out that the nutritional ingredients of cranberries are as follows:
Vitamin C: has antioxidant effects, can help remove free radicals in the body, reduce low-density lipoprotein sterol (that is, malignant sterol), and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Vitamin E: It also has antioxidant effects, protects cells from free radicals and prevents cardiovascular diseases.
Antioxidants: can help fight the damage of free radicals and reduce cardiovascular disease.
Standard quality: It is beneficial to the health of the digestive system, promotes kidney tract movement, helps reduce calcified sterols, and effectively prevents cardiovascular diseases.
Proanthocyanins (PACs): is a biologically active compound with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can help improve vascular health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Cranberry efficacyEveryone is familiar with that cranberries can prevent urinary tract infections and shorten the course of the disease and recover as quickly as possible. The efficacy of cranberries is not only like this. The following is a summary of the sharing of the effects of cranberries by A-can nutritionist and the kidney physician Jiang Shoushan on the efficacy of cranberries, as follows:
1. Prevent urinary tract infection: Related studies in the United States have shown that proanthocyanins reduce the growth and adhesion of harmful bacteria, prevent bacterial infection and other problems. Taking proanthocyanins from cranberries can effectively reduce the chance of urinary tract infection.
2. Prevent breast cancer formation: Cranberries contain many phytochemicals, which can fight the formation of breast cancer cells and prevent cancer cell growth.
3. Protective gland protection: The active ingredient in cranberry is free of gallic acid and dermatin, which can protect the glands and maintain normal function of the glands.
4. Strengthen antioxidant power: Cranberries are rich in plant polyphenols, ketoxins, vitamin C and other antioxidant ingredients, enhance human antioxidant power and fight free radicals and inflammation reactions.
5. Improve stomach inappropriate: Cranberry's proanthocyanin and ellagic acid can reduce the growth of Hellenic spiral bacteria in the stomach, improve the kidney tract and relieve stomach ailments.
6. Protecting cardiovascular: Proanthocyanin can maintain vascular elasticity, while ketones and phenolic acids can maintain blood circulation, and can also avoid oxidation of cervical sterols, causing vascular disease to be damaged and sclerosis.
7. Prevent dementia and reduce pyrosterol: A study by the international journal Frontiers in Nutrition shared by the Breasts doctor Jiang Shoushan shared a study that pointed out that after eating 100 grams of cranberries a day, you can find that your memory has improved after 3 months, and low-density pyrosterol can also reduce 9%, effectively reducing dementia risks.
Cranberry tabooAlthough there are many benefits to cranberries, don't eat them wildly. Chen Xinlijian reminds you to be careful to eat too much, or special diseases, which may cause the following side effects:
Stimulate the stomach: Cranberries are acidic fruits. Eating them in large quantities in a short period of time may stimulate the gastric tract. Eating excessively, whether it is raw juice or ingredient, may stimulate the digestive tract to cause stomach problems or abdominal distension. If people with a more sensitive stomach can eat it after eating, it can not only reduce the feeling of inappropriateness, but also the rich vitamin C in cranberries can also help the nutrient absorption in food.
Formation of stones: Cranberries are rich in oxalic acid, although they do not actually affect the general population, if there is a problem with urinary tract stones, you need to pay attention to the amount you eat and the amount of water you drink.
Causes acute allergies: The structure and efficacy of the hydrogic acid contained in cranberries are similar to that of aspirin (aspirin is a chemical drug, commonly used for anti-inflammatory and pain relief, and preventing thrombosis). Eating it in general groups has anticoagulant effects and can prevent cardiovascular diseases. However, for people with aspirin allergies, special attention should be paid to the use of cranberry to avoid causing acute allergic reactions by hydroacid, which is similar to aspirin.
