Where does sugarcane grow?

Sugarcane generally grows in tropical and subtropical areas such as Fujian, Hainan, Taiwan Province, Indonesian, etc.

Sugarcane juice is sweet and rich in nutrition, which is called the best fruit, and some people say: "Sugarcane has competed in autumn".

The nutritional value of sugarcane is very high, and it contains more water, accounting for 84% of sugarcane. Sugarcane has the richest sugar content, among which sucrose, glucose and fructose account for 12%. In addition, according to scientific analysis, sugarcane also contains other substances needed by human body, such as .2g of protein, .5g of fat, 8mg of calcium, 4mg of phosphorus and 1.3mg of iron. In addition, sugarcane also contains aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine, alanine and other amino acids beneficial to human body, as well as vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6 and vitamin C and so on. The iron content of sugarcane ranks first among all kinds of fruits.

Chinese ancient physicians also listed sugarcane as a "tonic medicine". Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sugarcane enters the lung and stomach meridians, which has special effects of clearing heat, promoting fluid production, lowering qi, moistening dryness, tonifying lung and benefiting stomach. Sugarcane can treat body fluid injury caused by fever, upset and thirsty, nausea and vomiting, cough and asthma caused by lung dryness. In addition, sugarcane can relieve constipation, and drinking its juice can also alleviate alcoholism.

Although sugar cane is a good fruit, there are some people who are not suitable for it, such as patients with stomach cold, vomiting, loose stools, cough and excessive phlegm, so as not to eat sugar cane or eat less for the time being, so as not to aggravate their illness. In addition, it must be noted that it is easy to mildew if it is not properly kept. The sugarcane with "dead color" on its surface is yellow or pig liver color when cut, which smells musty. After eating a bit of sugarcane with sour taste and distiller's grains, it is easy to cause mold poisoning, which will damage the optic nerve or central nervous system. In severe cases, it will make people blind and suffer from incurable diseases such as spastic paralysis. Sugarcane has the function of nourishing and clearing away heat, and is rich in nutrients. As a refreshing tonic, it has a certain curative effect on hypoglycemia, dry stool, dysuria, nausea and vomiting, cough due to deficiency-heat and high fever and polydipsia. People who are overworked or hungry and dizzy will refresh themselves as long as they eat two pieces of sugar cane.

However, due to the cold of sugarcane, it is not suitable for people with spleen and stomach deficiency and stomach pain.
