Why is jelly low in calories but unhealthy?

The main reason is that the raw materials and ingredients of jelly are not very good, so it is unhealthy and not conducive to absorption.

Jelly is synthesized using some substances, which contains very little heat.

In the case of jelly, it may be made because it contains bad materials.

Because a lot of preservatives are added to the production of jelly, it is not good for the human body.

Because unhealthy does not mean that the calories are high, nuts are high in calories, fried chicken, but everyone still calls them healthy foods.

After the big premise, you see! Although jelly is low in calories, basically similar to yogurt and milk, it has zero protein and fat, only carbohydrates, sodium and calcium. Of course, no fat may seem good, but there is no protein, which means that it is only powered by carbohydrates.

You can compare the nutritional content list of a certain brand of pure milk and yogurt, and it can be seen that the nutrition is relatively balanced, and protein, fat, and carbohydrates all exist and are not much different. ）

But then again, it's not at all good to be powered by carbohydrates alone?

Hmmm....I can't say that, but because the carbs of jelly are basically easy for us to absorb and can quickly raise blood sugar. When blood sugar rises rapidly, our body has to desperately metabolize and convert it, metabolism requires a lot of energy, so we will feel sleepy, and the conversion is converted into fat, which stays in our body for a long time....

So although it has much better calories than potato chips and biscuits, their essence is almost the same, that is, carbohydrates that are easy to raise blood sugar quickly + sodium that we have already eaten excessively, so they are called junk food.

At present, the vast majority of jelly sold on the market is not made of fruits, but is prepared with sodium alginate, agar, gelatin, carrageenan and other thickeners, and a small amount of synthetic flavors, artificial colorants, sweeteners, acidulants, etc. Although sodium alginate and agar belong to dietary fiber, excessive absorption will affect the absorption of fat and protein, especially inorganic salts such as iron and zinc will be combined into soluble or insoluble mixtures, thereby affecting the absorption and utilization of these trace elements by the body.

Look at the nutritional composition of jelly, in addition to carbohydrates, there are almost no other nutrients, and carbohydrates are mainly added sugar (white sugar), "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents" recommends that we should control the amount of sugar intake every day at 25g, eating too much sugar is not only a problem of dental caries, many chronic diseases are also related to excessive sugar intake. So no matter whether jelly is high in calories or not, it is not a healthy and nutritious food.

Jelly belongs to the junk food category, and eating jelly regularly will affect the health of the body.

The calories of jelly are relatively low, and the calories contained in each 100 grams of jelly are about 70-80 kcal, which will not cause obesity.

However, a large number of food additives will be added to the jelly, such as edible gum, preservatives, etc., such additives may cause certain damage to the body when eaten for a long time, and the harm to liver and kidney function is relatively large.

Especially for some infants and the elderly, the spleen and stomach function is relatively weak, and all organs of the body are at a low level, it is not recommended to eat jelly food, which will affect the normal development of the body, and will also cause symptoms such as indigestion.

Very simply, the main ingredients of jelly are various chemicals, and various pigments are added, which are synthesized after processing, which is not nutritious to the body, but increases the burden of detoxification, so it is an unhealthy food.

1. It is easy to cause choking, because the properties of jelly are relatively soft, and if it is not eaten properly, it will accidentally enter the trachea and cause choking.

2. Jelly is also rich in sugar, if you eat too much, it will cause excessive sugar intake to cause excessive energy to enter the body, which is easy to increase the occurrence of diabetes, fatty liver, obesity and overweight.

3. Jelly is also easy to add flavor enhancers and pigments in the process of production, if too much flavor enhancer and pigment are consumed, it will increase the burden on the liver and kidneys, and will cause a decline in liver and kidney function and endanger health.

There are different additives in jelly, and eating too much is not good for people's health.

The heat of jelly

The calories of jelly are not high, the calories of a jelly are 13 kcal, and the fat and protein content contained in jelly is extremely low, 100 grams of jelly only contains grams of fat and grams of protein, so there is no need to worry about eating jelly to gain weight.

Jelly is rich in dietary fiber, and moderate consumption can enhance the digestion and absorption ability of the human body.

First of all:

Gelatin is a hydrolysate of collagen, which is a fat-free high protein and cholesterol-free, and is a natural nutritious food thickener. After consumption, it will neither make people gain weight nor cause a decrease in physical strength.

Gelatin is also a strong protective colloid, with strong emulsifying power, and can inhibit the coagulation of milk, soy milk and other proteins caused by gastric acid after entering the stomach, thus facilitating food digestion.

And then let's talk about jelly.

Some jellies are"Fruity"Jelly, there is no juice pulp in the production raw materials, but fruit flavor and food coloring, such jelly is not of high nutritional value, it is best not to eat.

From a nutritional point of view, children should drink more milk, eat more fruits, eat a reasonable diet, not be picky, and try to eat less jelly.

Another great thing about jelly is its low energy. It contains almost no energy nutrients such as protein and fat, and can be consumed with confidence by people who want to ** or maintain a slim figure.

Because the self-protection mechanism of young children's bodies is not complete, it is easy for jelly to enter the trachea or bronchi when eating jelly, forming organ foreign bodies and causing suffocation.

What people call unhealthy refers to the "jelly" that is not serious with respect to children.

Other than that, it's a healthy food.

Jelly contains gelatin, which is harmful to the body.
