When I was a child, my parents always boiled apple and hawthorn water for us frequently in winter, saying that it could eliminate accumulated food and regulate the stomach. After the soup is cooked, the room smells fragrant. The sour and sweet taste is very delicious. It is also our favorite sweet soup. Now that I see that the hawthorn is good, I just happened to buy the Guoguang apple. It tastes really good after making it. Share it with friends here and hope everyone likes it!
Apples are the most important fruit in our country and the most widely planted and produced fruit in the world. It tastes sweet and sour and is rich in nutrients. According to measurements, every 100 grams of apples contains 6.5 - 11.2 grams of fructose, 2.5 - 3.5 grams of glucose, and 1.0 - 5.2 grams of sucrose. It also contains trace elements zinc, calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium and vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin C and carotene. There is a saying circulating in the United States: "If you eat an apple for every meal, you don't need to call a doctor." Although this is a bit exaggerated, the nutritional and medicinal value of apples can be seen from this. Because the nutrients contained in apples are comprehensive and easy to be digested and absorbed by the human body, they are very suitable for infants, the elderly and patients.
Apples are also called "wisdom fruit" and "memory fruit". People have long discovered that eating more apples has the effect of improving memory and improving intelligence. Apples are not only rich in nutrients essential for the brain such as sugar, vitamins and minerals, but more importantly, they are rich in zinc. According to research, zinc is a component of many important enzymes in the human body and a key element in promoting growth and development. Zinc is extensively involved in the metabolism of protein, fat and sugar in the body through enzymes. Zinc is also an essential element in making up nucleic acids and proteins that are closely related to memory. Zinc deficiency can cause poor development of the hippocampus area in the marginal part of the cerebral cortex and affect memory. Experiments have also proved that reducing zinc in food will seriously hinder the memory and learning ability of young children. Zinc is also closely related to the production of antibodies and the improvement of human immunity.
So apples have also become peace fruits.
