At the moment, the season of winter jujube is on the market. Many people like the sweet and crisp taste of winter jujube. But recently there is a saying on the Internet that there is a kind of date called "saccharin jujube", which will have an adverse effect on the body. So, what is saccharin date? How to distinguish between winter jujube and saccharin jujube?

Jujube is called "saccharin jujube" after being soaked in sodium saccharin. Sodium saccharin is a synthetic product of organic chemicals. It is a food additive. It does not participate in metabolism, does not produce heat, and is excreted in the urine. It does not have any nutritional value to the human body, and excessive intake will occur. Human health is harmful.

If the sodium content of saccharin in the jujube is high, it will inhibit the secretion of some digestive enzymes in the digestive tract, and anorexia may occur after eating. In addition, the sodium saccharin on the peel can be washed away, but the sodium saccharin that penetrates into the pulp cannot be washed away. Because sodium saccharin is harmful to human health, consumers must pay attention when purchasing fresh dates.

So, how should we distinguish between saccharin dates and normal winter dates? Please refer to the following four recommendations:

First, look at the color. The natural mature winter jujube is gradually changed from cyan to red, so it is mostly green and red, and there is no obvious boundary between green and red. The winter jujube soaked with sodium saccharin is mostly dark red or dark yellow, dark red or The dark yellow and cyan parts have obvious boundaries.

Second, touch the texture. The natural mature winter jujube has a smooth and hard skin, and the peel and flesh are closely attached; while the surface of the saccharin jujube is sticky and even wrinkled, the peel is loose, and the part of the pedicle is soft.

Again, taste the taste. The natural mature winter jujube is crisp and refreshing, the flesh is the sweetest part, the peel is basically tasteless, and it has natural fragrance. The saccharin jujube is sweeter than the flesh due to soaking, the aftertaste is slightly bitter, and the water washed with jujube also has sweet taste.

Finally, the saccharin dates and normal dates are also different after cutting. After cutting the jujube, observing the fault will reveal that the faulty flesh of the saccharin jujube has traces of soaking and decaying, and the normal jujube does not. This phenomenon is more obvious on the saccharin jujube that has been placed for more than 10 hours.
