Carbohydrate profile: Oligosaccharides (raffinose).
Raffinose is widely found in plants in nature, is the most well-known trisaccharide in nature, is formed by the combination of galactose, fructose and glucose, also known as melitriose (melitriose), honey triose, is a functional oligosaccharide with a strong proliferative bifidobacterium effect.
1. The nutritional and health effects of raffinose.
1.Supplemental nutrition: Assaffinose is an indispensable nutrient for the human body, and proper consumption can supplement the nutrients needed by the human body, and can also promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, which is conducive to the digestion and absorption of nutrients.
2.Promote digestion: Raffinose can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and has the effect of promoting digestion. If there are patients with weak gastrointestinal peristalsis, raffinose can be consumed appropriately, which is conducive to promoting digestion.
3.Regulate intestinal flora: After raffinose enters the human body, it can promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, which is conducive to regulating intestinal flora and can help improve constipation.
4.Beauty and beauty: Raffinose can clean up the deep toxins, enhance the anti-allergic and anti-dermatitis capabilities, prevent pimples and acne, and make the raffinose supple, smooth and elastic.
5.Enhance immunity: Nutrients such as vitamin B, vitamin A, carotene and trace element magnesium contained in raffinose can promote human metabolism, accelerate the regeneration of immune cells, improve human immunity, and enhance disease resistance.
Second, the main food of raffinose**.
The main foods** of raffinose include many vegetables (such as cabbage, cauliflower, potatoes, beets, onions, etc.), fruits (such as grapes, bananas, kiwifruit, etc.), rice (such as wheat, rice, oats, etc.) and the seeds of some oil crops (such as soybeans, sunflower seeds, cottonseeds, peanuts, etc.). Among them, the content of raffinose in cottonseed kernel can reach 4-5%. In addition, one of the main functional ingredients in soy oligosaccharides, which is known as a functional oligosaccharide, is raffinose.
3. Precautions for eating raffinose.
1.Control the amount of food: Although raffinose is highly nutritious, excessive consumption may lead to diarrhea, bloating and other indigestion symptoms. It is recommended to consume in moderation, with a daily consumption of no more than 50 grams.
2.Avoid eating with honey: Honey contains a lot of organic acids, and eating it with raffinose can form a precipitate in the stomach, which may cause indigestion.
3.People with allergies should eat with caution: People with allergies should first take an allergen test to confirm that they are not allergic to raffinose before eating.
