Peanut kernel calories

Peanut kernels also contain a certain amount of calories. If you eat too much at one time, it is easy to cause people to get inflamed. This is a warm tonic food, so you don’t need to eat so much in one meal. In addition, people who often suffer from weak spleen and stomach should not eat this kind of food, so as not to make their condition become more serious, and eventually cause some diarrhea after ingestion.

【Pharmacology】

①Hemostatic effect

It was initially discovered that oral intake of peanuts could relieve bleeding symptoms in hemophilia patients. Later it was discovered that it was not only effective for patients with hemophilia type A (caused by factor VIII deficiency), but was also more effective for patients with hemophilia type B (lack of factor IX). It also had a hemostatic effect on certain other bleeding patients, but its effect was very poor for those with severe bleeding. The effectiveness of peanut skins is 50 times stronger than the peanuts themselves, but their effectiveness is greatly reduced (20 times weaker) after being fried. Taking 10 grams of peel extract orally daily is effective. Initially, it was advocated that hexane extraction be used, but now ethanol extraction is mostly used. That is, 200 grams of peanuts are lightly stir-fried, and then soaked in 2 kg of 96% ethanol for 96 hours. Stir vigorously for 8 hours a day, let it stand, filter, evaporate the filtrate, and dilute the residue to 100 grams with 96% ethanol. Take 40 drops orally, 4 times a day.

The principle of its hemostatic effect has not been fully elucidated. It has no specific effect on the blood coagulation defect of hemophilia. It only relieves bleeding symptoms and does not increase the content of factors II-X in the patient's plasma. Peanut oil does not increase the levels of factors II, VII, and X in rats fed a high-fat diet, and has no effect on human fibrinogen and factor VIII. Peanut skin can shorten the coagulation time of hemophilia patients to normal. Some people have suggested that its hemostasis is related to vasoconstriction.

It is now generally believed that its hemostasis is related to antifibrinolysis. Oral intake of peanut skin can also reduce the fibrinolytic activity in normal people (from 100% to 40%). Peanuts also have this effect on normal rabbits and rabbits fed a high cholesterol diet. This effect may be due to its increased effect on plasminogen activator inhibitors or its antiproteolytic effect.
