The efficacy and function of rock sugar
1.
Dry throat, refreshing and comfortable.
amelirate dryness of the lungs
Rich in vitamin A, it can protect respiratory epithelium, improve immunoglobulin function and prevent respiratory infection. Nourishing yin and moistening lung, removing lung dryness and lung heat. It makes people breathe smoothly and comfortably.
3. Eliminating phlegm and relieving cough
Rock sugar is suitable for symptoms such as excessive phlegm, sticky phlegm and cough. It has a good moisturizing and physical therapy effect on the throat, which is conducive to the cure of local inflammation and can relieve local itching, thus blocking cough reflex. It can dilute the viscosity of respiratory tract inflammation and secretion, make it easy to cough up, and is beneficial to relieving cough and resolving phlegm.
Remove heat source and fire source
Rock sugar can clear the heart, purge the fire, clear away heat and vexation, and eliminate the toxic heat in the blood.
expel toxin
Rock sugar cleans up toxins accumulated in the body for a long time and improves health. Increase the activity of immune cells and eliminate harmful substances in the body.
6. Remove fat and lower blood pressure
Rock sugar can make blood pressure easier to control, dilate capillaries, reduce blood viscosity and improve microcirculation.
Rock candy can moisten lung and clear fire.
Contrary to brown sugar, rock sugar is cold. If we use brown sugar for colds, what should we use for colds? It's rock sugar.
Rock sugar can clear lung heat and moisten lung at the same time. So when the lungs are hot and dry cough, we often use rock sugar. For example, stewed pears with rock sugar can moisten the lungs and release lung heat. Similarly, when we stew tremella, we must put rock sugar, because tremella is also moistening the lungs, and it has a "1+1>; 2 ",if you put other sugar, you won't have this effect.
Then when to use sugar and what kind of sugar to use. Are very particular. When seasoning and matching food with sugar, we must first master a big principle, that is, judge when to use what sugar according to the warmth and coolness of sugar.
Sugar can be used as medicine. All sugars have detoxification and analgesic effects, and different sugars have other different effects. So when you use some traditional dietotherapy remedies and folk remedies, if sugar is not mentioned in the prescriptions, you'd better not add it casually.
If sugar is mentioned in the prescription, you'd better add it as required. Isn't this just to add some sweetness? I don't want to eat sugar, or add whatever sugar I have at home. If so, it may destroy the integrity of this prescription.
Brown sugar can replenish blood and promote blood circulation.
Speaking of brown sugar, although it is not refined sugar, you should not think it is relatively low-grade. Brown sugar is a good thing and female friends are generally familiar with it. It is vital to qi and blood.
Women must drink brown sugar water after delivery, which not only supplements qi and blood, but also helps her to discharge lochia as soon as possible; In addition, in the treatment of colds, it is necessary to use brown sugar to regulate spleen and stomach weakness, and brown sugar is also essential.
We can summarize the function of brown sugar into two characteristics: the first is to enrich blood, and the second is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Brown sugar can not only enrich blood but also promote blood circulation, which is very rare.
Women want to replenish blood, but sometimes taking expensive blood tonic can't make it up, because there is no way. We all know the truth that "the old don't go, the new don't come". It's no good tinkering. It is necessary to melt the old congestion before new blood is produced. Brown sugar has just this effect.
Therefore, it is very beneficial for female friends to eat more brown sugar, which not only enriches blood and promotes blood circulation, but also makes your complexion better. Moreover, brown sugar is a warm thing, which can come in handy when conditioning all cold diseases.
Brown sugar is rich in nutrition and low in sugar content.
Brown sugar is not a special product for women. It is good for people with weak constitution and the elderly to eat brown sugar.
Now people are generally worried that eating too much sugar is bad for their health, so we should control the intake of sugar.
But what should you do at this time if you want to eat some sugar and want to control it? What kind of sugar consumes less sugar?
Among the three commonly used sugars, white sugar, brown sugar and rock sugar, if the same amount is used, brown sugar has the least sugar content, because it is freshly squeezed sugar, and the sugar content is only 95%, and the rest are minerals and vitamins.
Brown sugar is not only sugar, but also contains many nutrients, unlike white sugar which is purified. Compared with white sugar, brown sugar contains more things that are beneficial to our health.
Trace elements contained in brown sugar have a strong stimulating effect on the hematopoietic function of human body, which is the key to enriching blood.
Therefore, brown sugar is not only a condiment, but a good brown sugar can be eaten directly as a snack, but sugar can't.
White sugar can detoxify and treat emergencies.
White sugar is the most commonly used condiment, but I don't recommend you to use it in large quantities.
Because sugar is refined, there are few nutrients in it, which mainly plays a seasoning role. Moreover, white sugar also contains a lot of sugar, and eating too much will affect your health.
Sometimes, we also use sugar in diet and health care, because it has a certain effect of moistening lung and clearing lung. However, the effect of clearing lung heat from rock sugar is better, and rock sugar is the first choice when stewing soup.
White sugar also has a certain detoxification effect.
In fact, all sweet sugar has a little detoxification effect, while white sugar has a faster effect because of its very high sugar content. In the past, if someone ate something poisonous, in an emergency, people would immediately give him white sugar water to detoxify.
Nutritional value of rock sugar
Rock sugar is mainly composed of sucrose, which can be decomposed into glucose and fructose. Nature: sweet taste, flat nature, spleen and lung meridians entered. The role of rock sugar: rock sugar can tonify middle energizer, nourish stomach, quench thirst and resolve phlegm. It is generally believed that rock sugar is the most nourishing.
Therefore, when taking tonics and tonics, rock sugar is better than soft sugar. For example, when cooking all kinds of cream tonics, white fungus and longan soup, rock sugar is often used to take its nourishing effect.
Although rock candy is very sweet, it is relatively peaceful in nature, so it is not advisable to keep damp evil for a long time and produce phlegm and heat. Without brown sugar, it can cause warmth.

It is not advisable to eat a lot on an empty stomach.
There are many foods that are not suitable for eating on an empty stomach, and rock sugar is one of them. So why can't rock sugar be eaten on an empty stomach? This is because the main component of rock candy is sugar. Eating rock candy on an empty stomach will inevitably lead to the increase of sugar in our body, which will affect our health. Therefore, it is not advisable to eat rock sugar on an empty stomach.
Excessive consumption affects children's development.
Eating too much rock sugar will affect the consumption of fat in the body and cause fat accumulation; Eating too much rock sugar will also affect calcium metabolism. Some scholars believe that if the amount of eating rock candy reaches 16- 18% of the total food intake, calcium metabolism in the body will be disordered and calcification in the body will be blocked. A survey in Japan shows that the fracture rate of children is increasing, and they think that too much rock sugar is an important cause of fracture.
Eating too much rock sugar will make people feel full and have poor appetite, which will affect their food intake and lead to the lack of various nutrients. Children's long-term high-sugar diet directly affects the growth and development of children's bones, leading to rickets. If children eat more rock candy and don't pay attention to oral hygiene, it provides good conditions for the growth and reproduction of oral bacteria, which is easy to cause dental caries and oral ulcers.
In order to avoid diseases such as dental caries, myopia, rickets and digestive tract, the World Health Organization appeals to parents not to let their children eat too many sweets.
Excessive consumption can easily lead to related diseases.
Some experts believe that sugar is more harmful to human body than cigarettes and alcoholic beverages. The World Health Organization has investigated the causes of death in 23 countries, and concluded that sugar addiction is more harmful than smoking, and long-term consumption of foods with high sugar content will shorten people's life span by 20 years. Therefore, 1995, the World Health Organization put forward a new slogan of "global sugar ban". The World Health Organization survey found that eating too much sugar can lead to heart disease, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, cerebral hemorrhage, ice diabetes and so on.
Long-term high-sugar diet will make the internal environment of human body unbalanced, and then cause various hazards to human health. Because rock candy is an acidic substance, eating too much rock candy will change the pH of human blood, present an acidic constitution, weaken the resistance of human white blood cells to external viruses, and make people susceptible to various diseases.
People who love sweets for a long time are likely to cause a variety of eye diseases. Experts also suggested that senile cataracts are also related to excessive sweets. They investigated 50 cataract patients and found that 34% of them have the habit of eating sweets, which they think is related to the metabolic disorder of grape rock sugar.
The harm of containing rock sugar
As for eating rock candy, some people like to hold a rock candy for several minutes, which is actually a bad habit. Because there is a kind of lactic acid bacteria in people's mouth, it can ferment rock sugar to produce lactic acid. The longer the rock sugar is contained in the mouth, the more lactic acid is produced, and the greater the chance of dental caries.
Rock candy should not be eaten more.
