Sugarcane is rich in nutrition, why does it bubble when eaten too much?

Sugarcane is a kind of fruit with rich nutrition, wide planting range and high yield, and it is one of the most common fruits around us. Sugarcane is hard and rough, which is a delicious fruit that people with bad teeth cannot enjoy; In addition, sugarcane has a high sugar content, so in many cases, sugarcane can be used to make sucrose in addition to being eaten as fruit.

Sugarcane is delicious, but it is easy to make our mouths blister; Let's make some sacrifices while enjoying the delicious food. This situation is mainly due to the following two reasons:

1. Sugarcane is rich in crude fiber, while sugarcane with delicate and soft oral tissues is delicious, but not everyone can enjoy it; Because it is hard, even if the skin is removed, we still need to chew hard to taste the sweetness. Sugarcane pith is very hard, and these crude fibers constantly rub against our oral tissues during full chewing.

As we chew sugar cane for a long time, these oral tissues will be worn by sugar cane, so what we call foaming phenomenon appears.

Second, cane sugar has a chemical reaction with saliva. The sugar content of sugarcane is very high, so when we eat sugarcane, it will make us feel particularly sweet. The saliva in our mouth contains a lot of active enzymes. Under the action of these enzymes, sugar in sugarcane will be converted into maltose through chemical reaction; With the increase of maltose conversion rate, vesicles naturally appear in the mouth.

Therefore, although sugarcane is nutritious and delicious, you must not eat more when you eat it; Otherwise, it will not only bring us taste enjoyment, but also bring us pain. For people who like to eat sugar cane very much, in order to avoid foaming in their mouths, in addition to eating it quantitatively every day, they can also squeeze sugar cane into juice to drink.

However, although this method can effectively relieve foaming in the mouth, it will consume a lot of sugar cane and make the body consume a lot of sugar. Therefore, when we drink sugarcane juice, it is recommended to dilute it with boiling water to avoid high sugar content.
