Is Ejiao worth buying?
During the Spring Festival, Weibo, the official of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, said, don't buy donkey hide, just "boil donkey skin". The Weibo has been forwarded and supported by many Internet V's. In the whirlpool dispute, this Weibo was quickly deleted. However, the public's doubts cannot be answered. Is Ejiao, which is already very expensive as a health care product, really not worth buying? At the same time, bird's nest, sea cucumber, honey, cordyceps sinensis and shark's fin have also been "shot" one after another, and they are accused of not being sacred products for health care.

February 18, "@ National Health 12320" said: "It is not worth buying Ejiao on holidays. Ejiao has always been in a high position in health care products, with many functions such as enriching blood, stopping bleeding, caring skin, preventing miscarriage, resisting fatigue, resisting cancer, etc ... However, please look at the essence through the phenomenon, Ejiao is just' boiled donkey skin'. The main component of donkey skin is collagen. This kind of protein lacks tryptophan necessary for the human body and is not a good source of protein. "

Later, @ People.com also forwarded this Weibo, which caused a lot of discussion. Soon Weibo was deleted by @ National Health 12320 and @ People.com. ..

Network V @ Wang Zhian said in its Weibo on February 20th that "National Health 12320 deleted the post that Ejiao is boiled donkey skin, and it is very likely that Ejiao manufacturers started public relations. Once the boiled donkey skin is returned to its original shape, the price will plummet 1000 times. The pigskin jelly in the supermarket in front of our house is several yuan a catty. The reasonable price of boiled donkey skin should be roughly the same. It is said that 40% of Ejiao on the market is' fake', that is, it is not made from donkey skin, but I have never seen a patient who has delayed his illness because of eating' fake Ejiao'. It can be seen that whether it is pig skin, horse skin, cowhide, rabbit skin, fox skin or sheepskin, the glial protein has the same effect, but it is useless. "

Network V @ Vaccine and Science also holds a similar view. On the afternoon of February 2 1, he sent two messages in his Weibo to verify the news.

"@ Science Park" said in the Weibo on February 8/KLOC-0, "By the way, don't just buy Ejiao, and don't buy all other products that claim to have the functions of' enriching blood, caring skin, preventing miscarriage and resisting fatigue'"-because these efficacy concepts are superstitious in themselves. "

In the controversy, Dong 'e Ejiao is undoubtedly the most concerned. It is reported that Dong 'e Ejiao is the largest Ejiao enterprise in China and also the industry standard setter of Ejiao. In its official website, Ejiao is described as a precious tonic, which has been passed down for more than 3,000 years. It is also called "three treasures of nourishing" with ginseng and velvet antler.

Colla Corii Asini was listed as a top-grade tonic by the earliest medical classic Shennong Herbal Classic, and was called a blood-enriching holy medicine by Compendium of Materia Medica. A kind of donkey-hide gelatin was first seen in Shennong's Materia Medica Classic. Liang Tao Hongjing's Record of Famous Doctors records: "It was called donkey-hide gelatin when it came out of East Asia." Ejiao is named "Ejiao" because it is produced in Dong 'e County, Shandong Province. According to reports, modern science believes that it has the effects of enriching blood and nourishing blood, beauty beauty and improving immunity.

After the controversial incident occurred, on 65438+ February, 2009, @ 京京京京京京京 made an implicit response: "Chinese medicine and western medicine have their own strengths. China's Characters and Qi Vein, Experiment of Western Characters. And those who are eloquent, because they are too subtle, ordinary people can't identify them, so they often get lost. When it comes to experimenters, they want to be specialized and divided, so they often lose their roots, and then they are both biased. "

In this dispute, Yuan Baojun, chief food safety expert of Jiangsu CDC and vice chairman of Jiangsu Nutrition Society, explained the following to the reporter:

First of all, food has certain nutritional value, but its nutritional components are different. There is no bad food, only bad collocation. There is no junk food, only a bad and unreasonable diet. Ejiao is taken from animal skin and contains collagen. From this point of view, it is certain that it has certain nutritional value. Including sea cucumbers.

Secondly, from the protein absorption rate, human contribution rate and economy, fresh eggs are the first choice for human intake of protein. In other words, if you want to supplement protein, Ejiao, bird's nest and sea cucumber are not as good as eggs.

Thirdly, Ejiao is a part of traditional Chinese medicine, and it is a product of homology of medicine and food, belonging to the category of traditional Chinese medicine. And nutrition, more precisely, belongs to the category of western medicine. Because they are two systems, they have not been fully integrated. As for Ejiao, it claims to have the effect of invigorating qi and nourishing blood, and the nutritional point of view cannot explain whether Ejiao has these effects.

Yuan Baojun said that the Dietary Pagoda is a nutrition intake scheme recommended by the Nutrition Society of China, which emphasizes the diversity of food intake. "Of course, many people in today's society are not only pursuing nutrition, but also eating is a kind of culture and an economic consumption phenomenon." Yuan Baojun said.

Liang Tingting, Department of Nutrition, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University, said: "Generally, patients after operation or recovery period will not recommend the efficacy of such products too much, but at most they will supplement them." Many natural ingredients are not protein with complete amino acids, but foods have synergistic effects, and they are not picky eaters or partial eclipse. Nutrients taken from natural ingredients are what the human body needs most. From the absorption rate of protein alone, the protein absorption rate of donkey-hide gelatin, sea cucumber and bird's nest is not as high as that of eggs in protein, so the so-called nutrition needs to be comprehensive, and the range of ingredients is better.

On the Internet, many people like to buy Ejiao for anti-tumor. Chen Xiaofeng, a doctor at Jiangsu Provincial Hospital, said that it is not recommended to use Ejiao for anti-tumor in clinic, and it does not help.

Xia Junquan, a doctor in Jiangsu Province, told reporters that Ejiao is a well-known Chinese medicine, which is flat and sweet. Authentic Ejiao needs to be made from specific donkey skin through complicated processes. Its clinical efficacy has been verified by thousands of years of clinical practice, and its effects of tonifying liver and kidney, enriching blood and replenishing essence are exact. It is not appropriate to evaluate the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine by only one component. If it is authentic Ejiao, its health care effect is much better than some so-called "health products" on the market.

"To treat the clinical efficacy of Ejiao dialectically, we cannot simply evaluate its efficacy from one of its components." Shen Jia, a doctor in Jiangsu Province, said that Ejiao will also be used in clinic through syndrome differentiation. For example, there will be donkey-hide gelatin in the boiled cream, and some female patients with irregular menstruation and postpartum anemia will add some donkey-hide gelatin to the recipe. Its curative effect has been clinically verified.
