Eating food once or twice a year, these ingredients can play a limited role.

In addition to flowing moon cakes, many "alternative" and novel moon cakes such as durian moon cakes are also very marketable among young people.

So, what do these moon cakes turn off the "beauty filter"?

Fan Zhihong said that the flow of moon cake flows from cream, artificial cream and other ingredients, so its saturated fat content is high and the calories are high. When buying such products, it is recommended to take a closer look at the nutritional component table to see if there are trans fatty acids.

In addition, many "net red models" moon cakes such as ice cream moon cakes, durian moon cakes, etc. No matter how the filling is new and different, the main production of raw materials cannot be separated from flour, edible oil, sugar, eggs, etc. The calories are not low. You can try your best to satisfy your taste, but you should not eat too much at a time, especially diabetic patients and people with weight loss should eat less.

"Beauty" propaganda three: low sugar and low fat health care

Ice skin moon cakes are quite popular in recent years. Use glutinous rice to make cake skin, the appearance is white, the taste is soft and smooth, slightly flexible, no need to bake. Merchants often use syrup to make cakes with traditional moon cakes. Too much sugar can make people gain weight. Low oil is healthier.

Momashan leather moon cakes are also known as Japanese moon cakes. The cake skin uses white kidney bean paste to add egg yolk, milk, cream and other ingredients, which are rich in color. Merchants emphasize that the selling point is more delicate than the traditional moon cake taste, and it is also obviously less oil, low sugar, and starch.

It will neither become an amazing calorie in the energy table, nor will the blood sugar soar rapid in the human body, which is friendly to patients with diabetes.

So, what do these moon cakes turn off the "beauty filter"?

Fan Zhihong said that the most needed for ice -skinned moon cakes is its preservation. Because it has not been baked, the water content is high, if it cannot be transported cold chain, or the logistics is delayed, there is a great risk of microorganisms exceeding the standard. After the consumers get it, they should also be eaten in time, otherwise it should be frozen. In addition, the ice -skinned moon cakes use glutinous rice and Cheng powder as raw materials, which are high blood sugar reaction ingredients, so it is not suitable for people who need to control blood sugar.

In contrast, kidney bean paste is a kind of low -blood glucose index ingredients. The Maooshan skin moon cake is baked and the safety is relatively high. However, ingredients such as sugar and cream are added to the cake skin, and the filling also contains more fat and sugar content. It does not fundamentally change the characteristics of high oil and high sugar in moon cakes. Therefore, such moon cakes cannot be released.

The so -called "sugar -free" moon cakes are not added with sucrose, and they are replaced with sugar alcohol sweeteners. However, the main raw materials of moon cakes are flour and starch, and these starch -containing raw materials can also increase blood sugar. Therefore, diabetic patients and weight -loss people should also control the intake of sugar -free moon cakes.

Sugarol sweeteners are not easy to absorb in small intestines, so low calories and less sugar, but after entering the large intestine, it will increase the intracense of the intestinal tract, promote intestinal exercise, and easily cause diarrhea and abdominal pain. Everyone's tolerance for sugar alcohol is different. Most people intake more than 20 grams at a time. It may cause diarrhea. In particular, people with weak daily digestion, and patients with intestinal solid syndrome, must see the ingredients table on the food label, strictly limit the moon cakes containing sugar alcohols, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble in the joyful festivals. Expert tips

Eating moon cakes is particular

Fan Zhihong, a professor at the School of Food and Nutrition Engineering, China Agricultural University, believes that moon cakes are just a festive food. Under the premise of eating once a year, they have little impact on daily dietary nutritional balance, and they do not have to be too demanding on its heat. Healthy people eat a piece of sugar moon cake and high -fat moon cake, which is also small on health. Patients with diabetes and hyperlipidemia can eat only a quarter of moon cakes at a time, and share the joy of festivals with other health foods with other health foods.

However, if you add some "high -end ingredients" because the moon cakes are added, or because the moon cakes have "sugar -free" and "low fat" publicity, it is not wise to let go of a few pieces a day. No matter which moon cakes above, they should be eaten in an appropriate amount of their own health.

How to eat mooncakes scientific, Fan Zhihong suggested:

Eat less moon cake at a time

Share moon cakes with different fillings with your family. Eat only one -half or a quarter of moon cakes at a time, which can better taste the deliciousness of various moon cakes without eating too much. Note that moon cakes are rich in carbohydrates and are also substitutes for staple foods. Therefore, eating moon cakes should be reduced accordingly.

Add moon cake to breakfast

In addition to the days on the evening of August 15th, the extra moon cakes at home are best to eat in the morning. Some epidemiology research shows that the risk of breakfast fat intake is slightly higher, which will not increase the risk of chronic diseases. Therefore, high -fat moon cakes can be used to instead of breakfast staple food, reducing the danger of gaining weight after eating moon cakes.

Reasonable with other foods

It is best not to drink sweet drinks when you taste moon cakes, but drink fresh tea that is fresh and greasy. Patients with chronic diseases can eat some vegetables or drink some milk before eating moon cakes to delay the increase in blood sugar after meals.

Be careful of filling allergy

Although the nuts and soot of the traditional moon cakes are high in fat, their nutritional value is relatively high. It contains unsaturated fatty acids, a variety of minerals and dietary fiber, which can be eaten in moderation.

However, for the special group of allergies, special attention should be paid to whether there are allergens in the moon cake, such as peanuts in the five -kernel moon cake, and egg yolk in the egg yolk moon cake. The total number of peanut allergies is not much, but it is one of the most serious allergies; eggs are the second common allergic food for children, second only to milk. (Edit Li Chuang)
