ingredient analysis
protein powder is not as cost-effective as soybean milk
, so what are these expensive protein powders made from? The reporter checked the ingredient list of various protein powder and protein powder, and found that most of these products were extracts from common food such as soybean and pea. In this regard, Fan Zhihong, associate professor of nutrition and food safety at the China Agricultural University's Department of food and food, once counted an account in the article "how to face the flicker of health care": the cost of 1 liters of soya bean milk is not more than 0.5 yuan (8 yuan 500 grams of soya bean, 1 liters of soya bean milk, 50 grams of beans, 0.4 yuan, and 0.1 yuan electricity fee, etc.), containing protein. About 20 grams of quality, 2.5 cents per gram of protein; buy a bottle of protein powder at least 100 yuan, containing protein only 100 grams, more than 1 yuan per gram of protein, is more than 40 times the soybean milk. Fan Zhihong concluded that the cost performance of protein powder is far less than that of soya bean milk.
for some women who have long dieting to lose weight, they say that after eating protein powder, the quality of the hair is better and the skin is elastic after taking collagen, Fan Zhihong said that this is because the parties lack protein and the skin and hair quality is not good, and some collagen can be improved naturally. If you add two eggs a day, or add 22 lean meat, your hair and skin will also improve.
nutrition specialist
ordinary people do not need to supplement
protein
, so is it necessary for ordinary people to supplement protein? The reporter consulted Yang Hong, an expert in nutrition at Hai CI hospital. "The best source of food for protein is fish, meat, eggs, milk, and so on. As long as it does not eat three meals a day on a day, there is no need for additional protein." Yang Hong said that when protein enters the stomach, it will be digested into small molecules of amino acids. Once it has been digested into amino acids, the protein will lose all its original activity and function, so the magical effect of business propaganda is not reliable. In addition to soybean extract, Yang Hong advises consumers to check the back instructions of the protein powder drinks before they buy, to understand the ingredients of the drinks, because the synthetic pigments, flavors and additives in the protein powder are increasing.
Yang also reminds us that there are more purine components in protein powder raw materials, and that excessive intake of protein powder may increase the incidence of gout. In addition, protein in the body of more decomposition products, including ammonia, ketoacid and urea will have side effects on the human body, not only increase the liver burden, but also easily cause indigestion, and even affect the liver and kidney function, resulting in emaciation and immune function, so it is particularly reminded of gout, liver and kidney failure patients, more important. Limit the intake of protein. (reporter Wang Shoulin)
