1 moon cake = 6 cups full-fat milk How to eat moon cake healthily

Abalone, shark's fin, American ginseng, olive oil...

The nutritional efficacy of moon cakes and health moon cakes is not necessarily much higher than that of ordinary moon cakes. According to Fan Zhihong, associate professor of nutrition and food safety at the Food College of China Agricultural University, first of all, the amount of health food ingredients contained in these moon cakes is not good. Second, spirulina, American ginseng and other ingredients do have some health benefits, but they are added to high sugar and high fat. After the high-calorie "three high" moon cakes, their nutritional and health care values ​​have also been offset. In addition, abalone, bird's nest, shark's fin ... ... these ingredients are always considered high-end and nutritious in people's minds, in fact, many abalone moon cakes are not marked on the packaging of abalone content, and even some moon cakes are only processed with additives " Abalone taste "only. And the true nutritional value of abalone, bird's nest, shark's fin and other foods is actually exaggerated. They only have high protein content. If you really want to get nutrition, it's better to choose common foods such as eggs and fish.

As for moon cakes made with olive oil, although olive oil is indeed more nutritious than common vegetable oils, it is not suitable for high-temperature baking, but is suitable for mixing vegetables. Moon cakes must be baked at high temperatures so that the nutrients in the olive oil are destroyed, and there is no difference between them.

Break the traditional way of eating moon cake can also eat healthy

In Fan Zhihong's opinion, although moon cakes are high sugar and high fat foods, they can also be eaten healthy and delicious with low-fat raw materials and dietary fiber. For example, moon cakes with red bean paste, lotus paste, and moon cake can be used as breakfast staples, with low-fat milk or light soymilk, and one fruit; while moon cakes with five kernels, chocolate, egg yolk, or salted meat can be sliced ​​into thin slices, sandwiched between two Slices of whole wheat staple bread, made of sandwiches, usually half a moon cake with 1-2 pieces of bread. This combination can make use of the fragrant taste of moon cake fillings to add flavor to lighter staple foods. Studies have shown that high food intake for breakfast can help control the amount of lunch and dinner. Therefore, using the high-fat characteristics of mooncakes to strengthen breakfast can minimize the risk of fattening after eating moon cakes.

In addition, red bean paste, lotus paste, date mud, Wuren and other moon cakes can also be cut into Xiaoding into the homemade soy milk, so that the milk can be less sugar, do not have to add additional nuts, nutritious and sweet. Putting a small amount of moon cakes into the cooked rice pudding or purple rice porridge is equally delicious and suitable for eating with cold vegetables. However, people with diabetes must not eat so.

Eat moon cake with some acetic acid drinks, lemon juice

Nutrition experts remind that reunion dinner is best eaten lightly on Mid-Autumn night. When you eat moon cakes, you can match a pot of flower tea, green tea, and oolong tea. It is best to drink acetic acid drinks or acidic drinks such as lemon juice to help digestion and greasy. Strong tea and coffee contain high caffeine, carbonated drinks such as soft drinks, cola and so on contain a lot of calories and sugar, not a reasonable mix of moon cakes.

Mooncakes are harder to digest, so it's best to eat salty foods before eating. Don't feel too greasy. It should be noted that patients with peptic ulcers, diabetes, calculous cholecystitis, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should not eat moon cakes.

Herbal Extract

Plant extracts refers to substances extracted or processed from plants (all or part of plants) with appropriate solvents or methods. They can be used in pharmaceutical industry, food industry, daily chemical industry and other industries.

There is a conceptual intersection between plant extracts and Chinese herbal extracts. The raw materials of plant extracts in China mainly come from Chinese herbal medicine. Therefore, domestic plant extracts can also be called traditional Chinese medicine extracts to some extent. They are generally included in the category of traditional Chinese medicine products in China's export trade statistics.


Development History

China's plant extracts come from the traditional Chinese medicine industry, and the overall development time is relatively late. In the 1970s, some Chinese herbal medicine factories began to use mechanical equipment to extract active ingredients, but only as part of production, plant extracts have not been produced on a large scale. Until the 1990s, the international trend of returning to nature rose, and people began to tend to use natural plant products. During this period, China's foreign trade rose, and China's Plant Extract industry was getting better and better. In the 21st century, with the application of more advanced extraction methods such as enzymatic extraction, ultrasound, supercritical extraction, membrane separation technology and microwave extraction technology, the yield of extract has been greatly improved, and China's plant extract industry has entered a golden period of development. From 2010 to 2015, the production capacity and export volume of plant extracts increased steadily and rapidly every year, and the proportion of plant extracts in the export of traditional Chinese medicine also increased a lot. Since 2016, the market situation of plant extracts has changed.

2. It is divided into glycosides, acids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, etc;

3. According to the product form, it can be divided into vegetable oil, extract, powder, lens, etc.

4. According to the purpose, plant extracts can be divided into natural pigment products, traditional Chinese medicine extract products, extract products and concentrated products.

Application

The application scope of plant extracts has been very wide nowadays. In addition to traditional Chinese medicine products, with the gradual increase of people's trust and dependence on natural products, a large part of plant extracts have been used in health products and food ingredients. In addition, plant extracts have been used in cosmetics and feed in recent years.

Some of the best-selling plant extracts in the world have several classifications.
