[b] Shun Internet news [/b] media exposure "propolis products mixed with gum", a lot of provincial city people are worried: the market is true propolis products? Food adulterated propolis will not be harmful to the body? How to distinguish the true and false propolis?
[b] messy! [/b]
[b] wholesale market almost almost />[b] wholesale market almost! - a stall - a brand [/b]
22 a.m., the reporter came to the Shandong health product wholesale market of propolis products and found that there are various kinds of propolis products, different places of origin, and almost one stall in the wholesale market, where most of the products are Guangzhou, Tianjin, Nanjing and other places. It is called the import of the United States. Price difference is also very different. Take 100 propolis products as an example, some businesses sell twenty or thirty yuan a bottle, others sell 98 yuan a bottle.
faced with a variety of propolis products with a wide range of prices, many consumers who came to buy were confused and did not know how to choose. "Often to buy propolis products in the wholesale market, but every time the brand is different, it is introduced to the sales staff, and I do not know what brand is good." Wang Xiangming, a citizen buying propolis in the wholesale market, said.
"now there are too many brands, and the quality is uneven. There are so many fake propolis and the market is very chaotic." Ms. Wang, who has been in charge of wholesaling products for more than 10 years, sighs with emotion.
reporter then visited the heroic mountain road, the drugstore on the East Road of culture found that the price of propolis is not the same, the same is 100 propolis, some are over 100 yuan, and some have reached more than 200 yuan.
the head of the Shandong health product wholesale market management office said, "at present, the product of the propolis in the wholesale market is the merchant's own purchase through various channels. We are not responsible for the inspection. Only the relevant functional departments regularly carry out the inspection of the health food category."
an industry insider said that the market of propolis in Ji'nan is indeed "very complicated", and the adulterated propolis certainly exists.
[b] surprise! [/b]
[b] adulterated propolis heavy metal over the standard, long-term consumption of harmful [/b]
propolis products into the gum, the body in the end is not harmful? It has become the most concerned topic among many citizens.
Ms. Wang Yuxiang, who lives in hero mountain road, said she had eaten propolis for five or six years, and her son gave her treatment of diabetes. "I heard that a lot of propolis products are mixed with gum, and I don't know what to do in the future. If eating adulterated propolis would be harmful to the body, a number of citizens, especially the elderly, were worried about the problem.
"even if it doesn't work, as a health care product, it doesn't kill people anyway." Some propolis distributors responded directly to this question.
the reporter consulted Liu Yumin, an expert on bee products enterprise. She told reporters that as the extraction process of propolis is very complex, the professional brand of propolis is produced in the pipeline, and the unqualified products will cause harm to the body.
Liu Yumin introduced a number of propolis products incorporated into the gum, which contain heavy metals such as lead and mercury, which can not be discharged by the body's metabolism. Although a short time has not been affected, it will hurt the body for a long time.
in addition, some adulterated propolis can not retain more than 300 kinds of effective components in propolis, although the color and lustre look good, but the loss of effective components leads to a discounted treatment effect.
Wang Dianhui, a doctor in Ji'nan Diabetes Hospital, said: "propolis can't cure. It's only a kind of health food, and it doesn't have a therapeutic effect. It is impossible to treat diabetes in advertising."
[b] discrimination! [/b]
[b] look and smell the most important, recognize the "blue hat" [/b]
how to distinguish between true and false propolis? Liu Yumin took out the true fake two propolis to the reporter to introduce to the reporter. True and false propolis difference is first to see "color", the true propolis is usually yellow brown, brown or gray brown, too light color, high amount of beeswax, heavy color is caused by heavy metal pollution, with yellow brown as good propolis. "False propolis is usually black."
secondly, whether there is "aroma" in the important news. True propolis has a special aroma, and it can make people calm themselves. And the fake propolis produces a pungent smell.
in terms of taste, genuine propolis tastes bitter, numbness, spicy and prickle. False propolis does not have this feeling.
in addition, at normal temperature, the propolis is hard brittle and brittle. The hand can be softened and can pull out the filament. The propolis can be crushed into powder under 0 centigrade. At 36, the propolis can be softened and become a viscous fluid at 65.
Liu Yumin said that these methods are used only in the original glue, and it is difficult to identify the propolis products purchased by the public, because it is difficult for the public to identify the appearance and packaging of the propolis.
"the easiest way is to smell the propolis in the bottle, but this method is not necessarily universal." Liu Yumin suggested that people should recognize the health products issued by the Ministry of health when they choose propolis. They must have a special "blue hat" logo on the top of the product or the label. There are four words of health food under the "blue hat". "Now propolis can only be used as health care products, not as food sales, so there is no approval of health products and" blue hat "logo, are fake health products. In addition, it is suggested that citizens should choose professional brands, especially the background of scientific research for manufacturers.
[b] experts say that the test standard is too low, the index is very easy to fake [/b]
[b] propolis national standard should be changed to [/b]
Shandong provincial Bee Industry Association, the Chinese bee industry society, the Chinese bee product society and other experts in the interview, said that at present, the domestic bee products are confused and the "national standard" is too low. It's a very important reason.
Xu Baohua, vice president of the Institute of animal science and technology of Shandong Agricultural University, said that there are not many propolis products in the market, and propolis products are mixed with gum. "The main reason is that it is difficult to detect, and ordinary consumers can not distinguish them. At present, experts from Zhejiang University are studying more feasible testing instruments and methods. " Xu Baohua said.
for the current market of bee products, the study of bee learning by Xu Baohua used "chaos" to describe, "honey and royal jelly adulteration is known to the public, and now it has exploded propolis. In my opinion, the national standard also has some problems."
Zhang Xikun, deputy director of the Shandong Bee Industry Association, director of the Quality Inspection Institute of Shandong bee industry and bee products, said that there are some problems in the "national standard" of propolis. For example, consumers purchase propolis mainly to see "flavonoid content", which is also the focus of national standard testing.
according to Zhang Xikun, according to Zhang Xikun, the contents of total flavonoids in propolis, that is, the content of total flavonoids in propolis, the content of the total flavonoids in the propolis is more than 15%, and the grade two is more than 8%, respectively. "But flavonoids are easily falsification. Adding some substances can control flavonoid content at random, so the higher the flavonoid content is, the better."
know bee expert Liu Yumin believes that the root of the fake propolis products is the low standard of national inspection, many people illegally add Chinese medicine and Western medicine to the propolis, and the final victims are consumers.
most propolis products in the market are near "Brazil glue". The National People's Congress, the vice president of the Chinese bee keeping society and the vice president of the Chinese bee product society, Song Xinfang, said that Brazil propolis is early, but the production of mechanized beekeeping in Brazil is not large in our country and the possibility of export is relatively small.
Song Xinfang believes that the counterfeiting of bee products on the market has reached its "peak" stage. "The original is to add white sugar to the bee products, and then to increase the syrup, starch, maltose and so on in order to achieve the national standard. The bee products made in this way can reach the standard in taste and content, and this has become a common phenomenon. In his view, the solution is to modify the national standards, so that fraud is not so easy.
reporter learned that the Shandong Bee Industry Association has tested the pure propolis in Shandong, and then analyzed the data and finally promoted the revision of the "national standard".
[b] Fang: we should strengthen the supervision of [/b]
[b] 22 days. [/b]
for the confusion in the health care products market, Hofuna Ko said that the lack of supervision was mainly due to lack of supervision. First, in the effect of advertising, the manufacturer exaggerated the publicity, the relevant departments investigated and investigated, but also only a fine, "they all earn tens of millions of millions, which care about this money, and sometimes no one is in charge of it." "
" some health care products are publicized more than medicine. If this is true, the word "medicine" can be used directly. Why do you use the "health" number? "Fang said, in the examination and approval of the product, he thought the threshold of" Jian "was low, too easy to apply, and also a reason for the chaos of the health products industry.
"to solve this situation, I think that, on the one hand, the departments concerned should strengthen supervision in the aspects of production, approval, marketing and advertising, and then the manufacturers have to self-discipline. After all, the products of false propaganda are difficult to exist for a long time." Fang suggested that most of the ingredients of health food come from food. If not for special needs, he thought that food could provide enough nutrition.
