The efficacy and function of jujube

1. Stimulate appetite and help digestion

Jujube is a fruit with a particularly sour taste. It contains a large amount of fruit acid, which can stimulate the appetite and speed up the secretion of gastric acid. It can relieve human indigestion and loss of appetite. People can eat some jujube when they have poor appetite or indigestion, but it has a strong sour taste and is not suitable for people who have excessive stomach acid.

2. Improve body immunity

Jujubes are rich in vitamin C, which can promote the regeneration of immune cells and improve the body's immune function. It has a good promoting effect on human bone development and blood regeneration. In addition, when the amount of vitamin C in the human body decreases, scurvy will become more prevalent. Therefore, eating more jujubes can also reduce the incidence of scurvy.

3. Delaying aging

People can delay aging by eating more jujubes. Jujubes contain flavonoids, vitamin E and carotene, which have excellent antioxidant capacity. They can not only inhibit the occurrence of oxidative reactions in the human body but also clear the free radicals in the body. Regular consumption can delay the occurrence of various aging symptoms. In addition, some nutrients contained in jujubes can directly act on human skin, reduce wrinkles and nourish skin cells.

4. Prevent gallstones

Usually, people who eat more jujubes can not only improve their body's immunity, but also prevent the occurrence of gallstones. Gallstones in the human body are mostly caused by excessive cholesterol in the body. After they are converted into bile acid, they cannot be metabolized in time and will form stones. Jujubes can speed up the metabolism of cholesterol in the human body and inhibit their conversion into bile acid. In this case, the chance of gallstones will be significantly reduced.
