Xylitol is a product of the new era. In today's life, it has gradually replaced white sugar and become a new generation of sweetener. It has many benefits to the human body, but you must pay attention to the amount when using it. If you consume xylitol in excess, it will cause obvious harm to the human body. Today, the editor will focus on introducing to you the harm of xylitol to the body after eating too much. What are the hazards of xylitol?1. Cause gastrointestinal discomfort Xylitol is a food ingredient with a cool nature. After people use it, it will not be broken down by the digestive enzymes in the stomach. It will directly enter the human intestines, causing obvious irritation to the stomach and intestines, causing adverse symptoms such as abdominal distension, intestinal rumbling, and stomach pain. 2. Induce diarrhea Inducing diarrhea is also one of the important hazards of xylitol consumption. After people consume xylitol, it is hardly digested and absorbed in the stomach, and its absorption rate after entering the intestine is less than 20%. The rest will accumulate on the intestinal wall in large quantities. At this time, the intestinal function will be significantly affected, and osmotic diarrhea is prone to occur. 3. Induce obesity Many people believe that xylitol is a low-calorie food ingredient and that consuming it in large quantities will not cause obesity. In fact, this understanding is somewhat wrong. For normal and healthy people, consuming 50 grams of xylitol a day can meet the body's nutritional needs. If you consume xylitol in excess, the calories will accumulate in the body, and it is not conducive to the decomposition and metabolism of fat in the body, which can also cause obesity. 4. Induce high blood pressure Excessive consumption of xylitol on a regular basis can also cause high incidence of high blood pressure and high blood lipids in humans. It will increase the burden on the human cardiovascular system, and is not conducive to the decomposition and metabolism of cholesterol and fat in the blood vessels. It can cause blood vessels to age and become rigid, and it can cause fat to accumulate in large quantities on the blood vessel walls. In this case, people's blood pressure and blood lipid index will increase significantly, and in severe cases it can induce coronary heart disease and thrombosis. |
