How to take
Fresh mature honey can be taken directly, or it can be prepared into a salt water solution, because the aqueous solution is easier to absorb than pure honey. However, honey must not be brewed with boiling water or steamed at high temperatures. Unreasonable heating will seriously destroy the nutrients in the honey, inactivate the enzymes in the honey, darken the color, evaporate the aroma, change the taste, and leave an unpleasant sour taste when eaten. Therefore, honey is best diluted with warm or cold water below 400(3) before consumption. Especially in the hot summer, drinking honey with cold boiled water can relieve heat and relieve heat. It is a good refreshing health drink. Apply honey to bread and steamed buns during meals ; You can also add honey to warm soy milk or milk, mix it and drink it together.
Under normal circumstances, honey is mainly taken "raw", that is, fresh honey can be taken without heating. This can preserve the nutrients of honey from damage and is conducive to full utilization. If the honey ferments and must be heated and sterilized, the water-insulated heating method should be used, that is, steaming it in a pot. When the temperature of the honey reaches 60~65°C, keep it for 15~30 minutes, and the yeast will be killed. Honey temperature of 60℃ will not cause the inactivation of active substances such as vitamins and enzymes, and can effectively maintain the nutritional content of honey.
Taking time
The time of taking honey is very particular, usually 1-1 before meals. It is more suitable to consume it within 5 hours or 2-3 hours after a meal. But for those with gastrointestinal tract disease Patients should determine the taking time according to their condition to facilitate its medical effect. clinical Practice has proven that honey has a dual effect on gastric acid secretion. When gastric acid secretion is too much or too little, honey can play a regulatory role and normalize gastric acid secretion activity.
If you take honey one and a half hours before meals, it can inhibit the secretion of gastric acid.; If you eat immediately after taking honey, it will stimulate the secretion of gastric acid. Stimulates intestinal movement and has a laxative effect. Therefore, patients with hyperacidity or hypertrophic gastritis, especially those with gastric and duodenal ulcers, should consume warm honey water one and a half hours before meals, which can inhibit gastric acid secretion and reduce irritation to the gastric mucosa. ; Patients with achlorhydria or atrophic gastritis should eat cold honey water immediately after taking it. nerve Frailty patients experience daily sleep Taking honey before drinking can promote sleep, because honey has the effect of calming the mind and improving sleep.
Dosage
The general dosage of honey is: it is more appropriate for adults to take 60 to 100 grams per day, and the maximum dose should not exceed 200 grams. It should be taken three times in the morning, noon and evening. Taking a larger dose as an example, 30-60 grams in the morning ; Middle-aged 40N80g ; 30~60 grams at night. It is better for children to take 30 grams per day, which can be taken several times with warm water. When used for treatment, a course of treatment of 2 months can achieve significant results. The size of the dosage is mainly different from the purpose and need of taking honey. Under normal circumstances, the dosage is slightly larger when used for treatment, and the dosage is appropriately smaller when used for health care. At the same time, it needs to be flexibly controlled according to each person's actual body. If the dosage is too small, the corresponding effect will not be achieved. It is not necessary to use too large a dosage. It needs to be determined according to individual circumstances.
