I have been shopping in the market recently and can see lychees on the market. May-August every year is the peak period for lychees, and jade purses are a little earlier than lychees. It is currently the peak period for jade purses to be produced.

The 8 common types of lychees are distinguished from black leaves lychees and jade bags

According to agricultural information, lychees are rich in a variety of nutrients, such as protein, vitamins, fat, citric acid, fruit gel, phosphorus, iron, etc. There are 8 common lychees in Taiwan, the most common black leaves and the most famous one is jade purse. The Executive Yuan Agricultural Committee also taught everyone to distinguish black leaves lychees and jade purses on their faces.

The most common black leaf lychee in Taiwan, the shell on the outside is more round and slippery to the touch, and it does not have a sharp feeling. The color is mainly dark and red, the flesh is thinner, the fragrance is thick, the sweetness is appropriate, the internal fruit core is full, and the middle part is the main planting area of black leaf lychee !

Jade purse

There are thorns on the surface of the fruit shell, which thorns the hand when you touch it. The color is red and green, so it is recommended not to continue to store it. Usually, the sweetness is very sufficient at this time! The fruit core is much smaller than that of lychee flat, round and long, the flesh is tender and thick, and the sweetness is sour, which belongs to the precocious variety!

3 Principles for eating lychees: Don’t eat them on an empty stomach, don’t eat uncooked ones, don’t eat them overloaded

Lychees are juicy and sweet, and they often make people unable to stop eating them, but there were always rumors on the Internet that “lychees are poisonous”. Dr. Chen Zhijin, the attending physician of the nursing department of Chime Medical Center, once pointed out in his face book "Icu Dr. Chen Zhijin" that this all happens to some "poor nutrition" children in India. They can only happen if they are "empty, eat in large quantities, especially if they are "not familiar" and "not having dinner"! Basically, if you eat it normally, you don’t have to worry about it. The three principles for eating normally are: do not eat on an empty stomach, do not eat uncooked food, and do not overeat.

Diabetics and people with fever should not eat more

In fact, according to the Food and Drug Administration's Food Database, the vitamin C content of lychees is quite high, almost at an amazing fruit. However, the sugar and heat content are very high. Chinese medicine believes that eating too much can cause inflammation, which aggravates symptoms such as rupture, nosebleed, constipation, stomach indigestion, etc. Diabetics and people with hot blood should not eat too much. Especially diabetic patients should pay more attention. In summer, many cases of blood sugar rise due to eating too much lychee. Huang Shumin, a nutritionist at Nantou Hospital, once visited and pointed out that the 100 grams of lychee has a heat content of about 60 to 70 calories, and the sugar content is 14 to 15 grams. Eating too much will cause blood sugar to rise, and excessive polysaccharides will also be converted into fat, which will lead to increased blood lipids or weight. Patients with hyperglycemia should not have more fruits than 2 punches per day.
