Why do we need to eat these fruits every day?

Brazilian researchers found that citrus fruits are rich in flavanone antioxidants that help prevent diseases caused by obesity such as cardiovascular disease, liver disease and diabetes.

With the accumulation of fat in the human body, fat cells produce excess of oxidative reactions, then create damaged cells. Therefore, the body often reacts with antioxidants.

If you are an obese patient, excess fat accumulation in your body, your body's ability to "counterattack" is relatively weak.

Researchers at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, experimented with 50 mice that ate high fat foods and were treated with three flavanone extracts of orange, lemon and green lemon. The results found that fat decreased markedly in the mice 's bodies, from which liver damage was reduced accordingly.

Citrus fruits not only help reduce weight, but also have anti-cancer effects.

One of the experts involved in the study said: "Research shows that even when flavanone is extracted from citrus fruit, it is not effective in reducing fat, blood fat and blood sugar levels of these mice. also decreased ".

The research results are published in the US exhibition and national conference on chemistry on August 21.

A similar study with the human body is still in the "planning" phase . For drinking fruit juice, eating fruit or using fruit extracts, what works best is still unexplored.

Citrus fruits not only help reduce weight, but also have anti-cancer effects . Citrus fruits contain nearly 200 types of anti-cancer compounds, described as an "etching" of cancer.

An Australian study found that eating citrus fruits every day could reduce the risk of oral cancer, laryngeal cancer and stomach cancer by 50%. The glycemic index of mandarin citrus fruit is relatively low, especially grapefruit, which is very suitable for diabetics.

We all know that in addition to controlling weight, exercising more, a healthy diet is especially important. Healthy foods are good for the body, but how many people can actually use healthy foods continuously? The last reason is still due to taste.

But without waiting for long, French scientists are trying to solve this problem. The researchers came from the Center for Eating Behavior and taste buds that tried the taste of the mixes, thereby finding natural aromatherapy molecules. Then, put this molecule in low-fat, low-sugar, low-salt foods. Since then, deceiving the brain makes him believe that these foods are particularly delicious.

The Daily Mail cited a research expert, Thierry, who said that the vast majority of consumers know that it is necessary to eat healthy, but what makes them delicious is oil, salt and sugar - enemies of health.

Research results indicate that flavors can compensate for the loss of appetite caused by low salt, sugar and oil, making dishes more attractive.

Thierry said preliminary research shows that the new technology could help food manufacturers create healthier foods without sacrificing the flavor, aroma or structure of dishes. .

Likewise, it can add unpleasant flavors to high calorie foods to control appetite.
