Summer is the season for crayfish to be put on the market in large quantities. It is absolutely the standard food for barbecue in summer. A pot of spicy crayfish and a bottle of ice beer have become the standard food for many people at night. But what you don't know is that crayfish has far more calories than you think, so don't be greedy when eating.
But you can't imagine that the "king of popularity" in this food circle is the enemy of weight loss. Zhao Weiyu, a nutritionist in charge of the Nutrition Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College, was consulted by the reporter. She said that a meal of spicy crawfish with 2 jin calories is more than half of the calories a person needs in a day, which is equivalent to running a half marathon to consume.
According to the report on the development of crayfish industry in China (2017), which was commissioned by the Ministry of agriculture to the National Aquatic Technology Promotion Station, 879300 tons of crayfish were consumed in 2016. 2017's data hasn't come out yet, but judging from the popularity of the circle of friends, we know that crayfish's hottest season is coming again.
Spicy, minced garlic, thirteen spices & hellip; & hellip; crayfish is basically the same as the formula. Take 'spicy crayfish' as an example. According to the recipe, in addition to the main ingredient crayfish, it also needs oil, pepper, dry pepper, sugar, flower wine, and various spices.
Take the above recipe of "spicy crawfish" as an example, Zhao Weiyu simply estimated that the heat of a pot of spicy crawfish is more than 1200 calories, which is basically more than half of our daily calorie intake. Zhao Weiyu said, "the normal calorie intake of adults is about 2000 calories a day. '
If you want to burn 1200 calories, you may need to run for more than 2 hours and walk for 5 hours. That is to say, after eating 2 jin spicy crawfish, you may have to run an extra 21 km half marathon.
It seems that crayfish is like a "heat bomb", Zhao Weiyu explained. In fact, the problem is not the crayfish: "the heat of crayfish itself is actually good, which is similar to the animal protein such as ordinary fish and shrimp. Generally speaking, the animal protein is better than the plant protein, and the ingredients such as pepper, pepper and various spices are not high in heat. However, the crayfish we are eating is usually made by frying, with a variety of sesame oil and soy sauce, the heat is certainly not low. Many people will eat a big pot of beer, which is certainly not very healthy. '
In addition to the high calories, crayfish has a problem that many people are worried about - hygiene. 'although crayfish is basically cultured now, I think the health problems still need special attention. Zhao Weiyu said, 'sometimes people ask me to eat crayfish for supper, but I never eat it. '
What should I do if I can't resist the temptation of crayfish?
Zhao Weiyu said: 'it's OK to eat crayfish once in a while, but it's better not to eat more than 10 crayfish at a time. It's not recommended to use crayfish as a staple food, or as a main course in lunch and dinner. At the same time, it should be eaten with vegetables and fruits. '
