Will I gain weight if I eat too many strawberries?

The WeChat public account of the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Market Supervision recently issued a document stating that if you like sweets and are afraid of gaining weight, then strawberries are definitely the perfect choice. The strawberry has a high fructose content and a smooth and sweet taste. If it is not eaten in a basin, it can be regarded as a qualified "weight loss product".

"As long as 7 medium-sized strawberries can meet the intake of vitamin C for a whole day." The article introduced that strawberries are extremely low in calories, only 34 kcal per 100g, 90% of the fruit is water, and only 7.5%. Carbohydrates and 2.5% other substances.

In addition, the vitamin C content of strawberries is also one of the best in the fruit world. People usually think that lemons and oranges are high in vitamin C, but each 100g strawberry contains 47mg of vitamin C, while the same weight of lemon is only 22mg.

If you go to the market to buy strawberries, it is very likely that you will see deformed strawberries of different sizes and uneven red color.

In fact, the size of strawberries is related to many factors, such as varieties, cultivation techniques and so on. The article pointed out that some varieties of strawberries are naturally large, such as Zhangji strawberries that we often eat, and excellent varieties are mainly bred through crossbreeding. And the first strawberries to be picked tend to be larger than the ones that follow.

It is actually harmless to the human body. It may cause strawberries to be sour, tasteless, or hollow. Generally, strawberries with strong aroma and moderate taste are generally not added with bulking agents.

In order to protect human health, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the World Health Organization have established norms and guidelines for pesticide safety evaluation, and European and American countries have established a strict risk assessment system. In accordance with international standards, my country has established a relatively complete pesticide safety evaluation system based on the experience of developed countries. Many developed countries such as the United States and Japan have included bulking agents in the list of substances that do not require toxicity management, and their residues do not need to formulate safety limit standards.
