A few days ago, Yuan Qi Forest announced that there were errors in the product packaging and publicity of Yuan Qi Forest Milk Tea, which could easily lead to misunderstanding. Therefore, it is planned to change the packaging and raw materials of the milk tea beverage produced later, and it will no longer contain crystalline fructose.

Through this explanation, it can be judged that he used crystalline fructose before. Therefore, this discussion is about using crystalline fructose Yuan Qi Forest Milk Tea.

Who is this crystalline fructose?

Crystalline fructose is a monosaccharide and an isomer of glucose. It contains 6 carbon atoms, the structural formula is C6H 12O6, and its sweetness is 1.2 ~ 1.8 times that of sucrose. It naturally exists in the juice of fruits, honey and grains.

Crystalline fructose has a fruity taste and a low calorific value, but fructose is a substance that can only be metabolized by the liver, which is similar to alcohol and has chronic toxicity. Uric acid, a metabolite of fructose, increases the risk of gout and hypertension; Metabolite aldehydes produce reactive oxygen species ROS, which is harmful to the liver. Most fructose is converted into fat in the liver, which leads to obesity, fatty liver, muscle insulin resistance and liver insulin resistance.

Fructose does not inhibit auxin, does not feel full, and also causes leptin resistance, which makes the brain unable to receive the signal of reducing appetite sent by leptin, destroys the body's energy balance regulation system, and leads to overeating. To put it bluntly, it is to gain weight!

Milk tea is sweet, but please drink less.
