As recommended by nutrition experts, fruit juice actually contains only some water solute such as simple sugar and vitamin C. There are other valuable nutrients such as vitamin A, E, carotene, fiber ...Capital insoluble in water should not exist in juice.So, fruit juice does not have the effect of beautifying the skin.
Abuse counterprodicting effects
Everyone knows, vitamin C in most fruits will help smooth and bright skin.“However, when the fruit is processed into juice or smoothie, the amount of natural vitamins inherent will greatly decrease.So eating unprocessed fruit is still better, ”said Dr. Dao Thi Yen Phi, Head of Nutrition Department, Pham Ngoc Thach Medical University, Ho Chi Minh City.
Meanwhile, there are many fruits that contain very little vitamins, such as apples that contain only a lot of sugar and potassium, and vitamins are very limited.So when used to press, vitamins are almost removed.Some fruits contain a lot of nutrients in the shell but are removed when pressed, so they lose most of the nutrients.
However, experts affirm that the protein, fat, iron, calcium content ... in fruit is much less than other foods and is almost none of the juice.If you use fruit juice for a long time, it will lead to a deficiency of protein, fat, and a loss of vitamins to help the metabolism of sugar in the body.Therefore, if abuse is easily counterproductive.
Today, many people still have the concept, drinking juice for the skin should use juice instead of dinner.
Understand correctly to drink properly
Although fruit juice is good for health, it is necessary to drink properly.Especially the sweet juice.The ideal time for drinking juice is after the main meal.Users absolutely do not drink juice in the early morning or when hungry.Because many fruits contain an acid that reacts violently with stomach fluid causing bloating and discomfort.
According to nutrition experts, do not drink a lot of fruit juice too much at the same time because the body is difficult to absorb all vitamins and minerals.Therefore, you should drink juice several times a day and do not exceed 3 glasses/ day depending on the fruit.
Dr. Yen Phi advised: “If possible, use fresh fruits.Drinking fruit juice every day can gain weight due to the amount of sugar in the fruit too much.
At the same time increase the loss of warehouse reserves of micronutrients of the body.Women and children should not use juice as a daily diet, but should only be used as a beverage right after the main meal.Compared to a glass of fruit juice, a glass of milk will be much better in nutrition.
