In the hot summer, winter melon is the best vegetable to cool down. The moisture content of winter melon is extremely high, the heat content is low, the sugar content is very low, and the dietary standard is particularly low. It has the effects of promoting diuretics and diuretics. Therefore, in addition to relieving heat and hydrating the kidneys, winter melon is also known as "fattening melon", which is a good ingredient for fattening in summer.
Winter melon, which is abundant in summer, has a large harvest and excellent quality. The winter melon is full of juice and can be cooked from skin to meat to seeds. It has a refreshing taste and is very suitable for consumption in summer. It is a vegetable that can relieve heat, reduce fire and quench thirst.
Nutritionist Liu Yili said that winter melon has low heat, high moisture content, and low dietary fiber content. It is easy to eat. Not only people who lose weight can eat more, but it is also suitable for the elderly to eat. It will not cause any burden on the stomach. If you suffer from gastritis or have stomach aches, eating winter melon is one of the best choices.
The content of winter melon is not high and the content of calcines is very low. Liu Yili said that boiling winter melon in water has a lot of water and has a diuretic effect. It helps to carry the calcines from the body without being prone to hydration and kidneys, and can lower blood pressure. In addition, the heat is low, and it contains vitamin B group, C and trace amounts of E, so winter melon is very suitable for fattening vegetables.
Winter melon is a slightly cold vegetable. Liu Yili recommends that when cooking winter melon, you can add spicy spices such as ginger and wolfberry to cook them together to neutralize and balance the coldness of winter melon. If you cook the winter melon and eat it, the content of the water will be much higher, and the water content of the water melon is relatively low and not scaly. Therefore, it is very suitable for people with three problems, and it is also suitable for people with poor kidney and stomach function, especially patients after the kidneys have a knife. You can eat winter melon with low fiber content, but it is not suitable for people with constipation and difficulty.
