According to nutritional analysis, jujube is rich in vitamins, adenosine cyclic phosphate, fructose, and various amino acids. Modern pharmacological studies have proven that adenosine cyclic phosphate can regulate the metabolism of the human body, promote the rapid generation of new cells, quickly eliminate dead cells, and enhance the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow, increasing the content of red blood cells in the blood. This can make the skin smooth, delicate, and elastic. Therefore, adenosine cyclic phosphate is also known as the "second messenger of life" in medicine.
Sugarcane is one of the favorite winter fruits. Its sugar content is very rich, ranging from 18% to 20%.
