Zhou Lei, it is not an exaggeration to say that his love for melon seeds has reached the point of obsession. Even his wife Xiao Chen joked that if the melon seed shop was closed, Zhou Lei would be depressed for several days. Every time the family sits in the living room, the buckets of melon seed shells in front of the TV are the best witnesses. But on this day, the habit of eating melon seeds caused a small "storm" in the family.

Xiao Chen looked at the pile of melon seed shells with some anxiety, and then glanced at Zhou Lei, who was busy with his mobile phone and melon seeds, and finally couldn't help it: "You said that you can't know about eating melon seeds every day?" Look at you, you're about to become a professional melon seed household! ”

Zhou Lei responded angrily: "I'm not looking for some fun." We don't smoke or drink, what's the matter, even the melon seeds? Seeing that Zhou Lei was still in that "I'm going to eat" posture, Xiao Chen was even more angry in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. One day in the blink of an eye, an unfortunate thing came, Zhou Lei rushed to school, but he didn't stand firmly, and directly staged a "foot drama". As a result, the small quarrel in the family extended to the hospital. However, things were not as simple as Zhou Lei thought - the new discovery of the hospital made him unable to calm down for a long time.

The doctor's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing into Zhou Lei's heart: ".Not only do you have a broken foot, but you also don't have to worry about high blood pressure and high blood lipids. This melon seed, although it is good, it is not good for the body to swallow too much, your blood pressure and blood lipids are high, and you have to control it. These words were like a basin of cold water, completely extinguishing Zhou Lei's enthusiasm. Melon seeds, for Zhou Lei, are not only a small pleasure to kill time, but also a fuse for the delicate relationship between him and his family. But now, it's a turning point for him to take control of his health. Melon seeds, this little food, why did it get the big hat of tumor?

We all know that melon seeds have always been a snack for all ages, and we don't seem to feel anything bad about it. But who knows, behind the pleasure of chewing, there are actually many hidden health risks. Let's talk about it firstThe nutritional value of melon seeds.

But the tragedy is that this seemingly harmless entertainment snack,If it is exceeded, it becomes a potential threat. Those salts and oils are a big burden on the body.

Studies have shown thatEating too many melon seeds may cause the protective layer of the gastric mucosa to be overwhelmed, so that stomach problems will come to your door, and in the long run, the risk of cancer will be much higher. Don't say anything else,A high-fat diet can put your body and blood in a stressful state, those diseases that are linked to tumors may take advantage of the weakness.

It's time for the small conflicts between Zhou Lei and his family to be resolved, and a healthy lifestyle requires everyone to work together. I have to mention here that scientific eating is the key. We have to learn to control, not to say not to eat, but in moderation. Choose melon seed brands that have less health impact, and even enjoy snacks while not forgetting to eat more fruits and vegetables for balanced nutrition. All in all, melon seeds are good, but we also have to think about our own bodies. Health is our capital, and without health, eating melon seeds will become a luxury.
