Health food, no side effects. It belongs to daily health care and needs long-term supplement to have certain effect. Health food is suitable for specific people, has the function of regulating the body, does not aim at treating diseases, and does not cause any acute, subacute or chronic harm to the human body.
Deep-sea fish oil refers to unsaturated fat components extracted from deep-sea fish and animals, namely EPA and DHA. Because the nutrition survey found that human health needs unsaturated fatty acids to maintain, and the saturated fat of the social population exceeds the standard, a large number of commercial organizations have developed such supplements. However, there is no authoritative data to prove that the product has the function of treating hypertension, and it is affected by technology, so it needs to be used with special caution.
Lecithin, also known as egg yolk, is known as the "third nutrient" alongside protein and vitamins. However, few people really know about lecithin. 1844, a Frenchman, Gohley, discovered lecithin from egg yolk, which was named Lecithos (lecithin) in Greek and commonly known as lecithin, which also unveiled its mystery.
The concept of deep-sea fish oil is the abbreviation of unsaturated fat in deep-sea fish. Fish oil refers to oil rich in EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) in fish. The contents of EPA and DHA in common fish are very low. Only deep-sea fish in cold areas, such as salmon and sardines, have extremely high contents of EPA and DHA, while other land animals contain almost no EPA and DHA. Therefore, deep-sea fish is selected to extract EPA and DHA.
Humans mainly take EPA and DHA from fish oil, among which the highest content is marine fat fish, some freshwater fish also contain a certain amount of EPA and DHA, and other animal foods have less content. Plant food does not contain EPA and DHA. EPA and DHA are unsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3), and their chemical names are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and eicosahexaenoic acid (DHA) respectively. Both of them are unsaturated fatty acids, and their molecular structures are very close, so EPA can be easily converted into high density lipoprotein (HDL) in human body to play its physiological functions.
Lecithin is suitable for people:
1, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stipulates that phospholipids must be added to infant milk powder.
2. Students, intellectuals and middle-aged and elderly people: Lecithin can enhance brain vitality, eliminate brain fatigue, enhance memory and improve study and work efficiency. It can also repair damaged brain cells and prevent the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease.
3. Patients with long-term drinking, overnutrition and fatty liver: Take lecithin 10- 15g every day, and the blood lipid index will return to normal level after 3-5 months.
4. Diabetic patients: Eating more than 20 grams of soybean lecithin every day, the recovery speed of diabetic patients is quite obvious, and many patients do not need to inject insulin. It is more effective for patients with complications such as diabetic gangrene and arteriosclerosis.
5. Patients with gallstones: Taking soybean lecithin every day can not only prevent the formation of gallstones, but also decompose and eliminate the gallstones that have been formed to varying degrees.
6. Amy: Lecithin is a natural antidote that can decompose toxins in the body. By increasing heme, it can provide sufficient moisture, oxygen and other nutrients for the skin, making the skin smooth and moist.
7. Constipation crowd: Lecithin can promote gastrointestinal blood circulation and gastrointestinal peristalsis, which helps to prevent and improve constipation.
8. Smokers should add more lecithin. The content of lecithin in the lungs of smokers is only 1/7 of that of non-smokers. Lecithin is hydrophilic and can keep alveoli moist, thus increasing the oxygen uptake of the body. Smokers generally have dry alveoli and insufficient oxygen intake, so lecithin should be supplemented. [3]
9. People with weak constitution, such as children, pregnant mothers who are not overweight or the elderly, can take lecithin with milk, soybean milk and juice to supplement nutrition. The daily intake is 800 ~ 1000 mg.
