What are the benefits of eating peanuts raw?

American scientists believe that eating more peanuts can prevent cardiovascular diseases. 1992 Loma Linda University in California reported for the first time that eating nuts such as peanuts can reduce the risk of heart disease. From 65438 to 0995, the American Dietary Steering Committee regarded peanuts and other nuts as part of a healthy diet and encouraged people to eat peanuts. In 2004, a study by Pennsylvania State University showed that peanut diet can improve the composition of blood lipids. Domestic experts have also recently certified this statement. "More than 75% of peanut fat is unsaturated fatty acid beneficial to human body, and contains no cholesterol." Wang Wei, director of surgery at Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospital, believes that the preventive effect of peanuts on cardiovascular diseases is related to this. He further explained that tetraenoic acid in peanuts is an unsaturated fatty acid, which has the functions of lowering blood lipid and serum cholesterol, reducing the risk of coronary heart disease, preventing platelet aggregation and preventing thrombosis, which is similar to aspirin in a sense. However, the human body cannot synthesize unsaturated fatty acids by itself, and it must be ingested through diet. Director Wang Wei also mentioned that although unsaturated fatty acids in peanuts have certain benefits in preventing cardiovascular diseases, there is no exact research data to confirm the effect, but the benefits of eating more peanuts are beyond doubt. Professor Fang Dingya, former dean and doctoral supervisor of Xiyuan Hospital of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, pointed out that peanuts can be used as medicine in Chinese medicine, and it is still uncertain how much role they can play in preventing cardiovascular diseases. But what is certain is that the red skin outside the peanut kernel can promote platelet production and avoid platelet aggregation. In this sense, peanuts can play a certain role in preventing cardiovascular diseases. Because platelets are easy to combine with fibrinogen in human body to form plaques, too many plaques will cause vascular stenosis and cause coronary heart disease. It has been circulating that peanuts are fried and peeled off to make tablets to treat various diseases of platelet deficiency. So Professor Fang reminds everyone that peanuts are best eaten with red skins. Although peanuts are good, not everyone can eat them: four kinds of people should not eat peanuts. Patients with hyperlipidemia: peanuts contain a lot of fat. After eating peanuts, the blood lipid level of patients with hyperlipidemia will increase, which is often one of the important reasons for arteriosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other diseases. Cholecystectomy: The fat contained in peanuts needs bile to digest. After cholecystectomy, the function of storing bile is lost. If such patients eat peanuts without a lot of bile to help digestion, they will often cause indigestion. Indigestion: Peanut contains a lot of fat, and people with spleen and stomach dysfunction such as enteritis and dysentery will aggravate their illness. Abrasions and bruises: peanuts contain a procoagulant factor. After eating peanuts, people with traumatic injuries and blood stasis may cause blood stasis and aggravate the symptoms of swelling and pain. Peanut: Sexual taste? It's flat and sweet.

If such patients eat peanuts without a lot of bile to help digestion, they will often cause indigestion. Indigested peanuts contain a lot of fat, which is eaten by people with spleen and stomach dysfunction such as enteritis and dysentery.
