辣椒医疗价值

1、.辣椒医疗价值营养防病对于大多数人来说，辣椒的辣度仅仅是味觉器官可以感受到的，但其实，辣度还是和营养挂钩的。辣椒中含有丰富的维生素C、胡萝卜素、叶酸、镁及钾；7辣 椒中的辣椒素还具有抗炎及抗氧化作用，有助于降低心脏病、某些肿瘤及其他一些随年龄增长而出现的慢性病的风险；在几个人体试验研究中发现，有辣椒的饭菜能 增加人体的能量消耗，帮助减肥；一篇发表于英国营养学杂志上的文章也指出，经常进食辣椒可以有效延缓动脉粥样硬化的发展及血液中脂蛋白的氧化。此外， 以前人们会认为，经常吃辣椒可能刺激胃部，甚至引起胃溃疡。但事实刚好相反。辣椒素不但不会引起胃酸分泌的增加，反而会抑制胃酸的分泌，刺激碱性黏液的分 泌

2、，有助于预防和治疗胃溃疡。药用性能【性味】果：辛、热。【功能】果：含有较多的维生素。脾胃虚弱者不宜多食，而且辣椒多则伤肝。外用治冻疮，风湿痛，腰肌痛。根：活血消肿。外用治冻疮。【用法用量】果515克；根外用适量，煎水洗患处。药用价值辣椒中含丰富的维他命E、C，此外还含有只有辣椒才有的辣椒素，而在红色、黄色的辣椒、甜椒中，还有一种辣椒红素（capsanthin），这两种成分都只存在于辣椒中，辣椒素存在于辣椒果肉里，而辣椒红素则存在于辣椒皮，它的作用类似胡萝卜素，有很好的抗氧化作用，因此喜欢吃剥皮辣椒的人可能就吃不到辣椒红素了。辣椒的热辣除了镇热止痛外，由于它能促进肾上腺素分泌，提高新陈代谢，因此

3、也被做成减肥用品，而辣椒素也具有降低血小板黏性的作用，因此也成为维护心血管健康的保健食品热门成分，不过因为它的刺激性强，肠胃溃疡或心脏疼痛、胸闷的人建议避免食用。9当辣椒的辣味刺激舌头、嘴的神经末梢，大脑会立即命令全身“戒备”：心跳加速、唾液或汗液分泌增加、肠胃加倍“工作”，同时释放出内啡肽。若再吃一口，脑部又会以为有痛苦袭来，释放出更多的内啡呔。持续不断释放出的内啡呔，会使人感到轻松兴奋，产生吃辣后的“快感”。吃辣椒上瘾的另一个因素是辣椒素的作用。当味觉感觉细胞接触到辣椒素后会更敏感，从而感觉食物的美味。在人们吃辣椒时，只要不将口腔辣伤，味觉反而敏感了。此外，在食用辣椒时，口腔内的唾液、胃液

4、分泌增多，胃肠蠕动加速，人在吃饭不香、饭量减少时，就产生吃辣椒的念头。事实上，不管吃辣成瘾与否，适量吃辣椒对人体有一定的食疗作用。一、健胃、助消化。如前所述，辣椒对口腔及胃肠有刺激作用，能增强肠胃蠕动，促进消化液分泌，改善食欲，并能抑制肠内异常发酵。中国一些医学、营养专家对湘、川等省进行调查，发现这些普遍喜食辣椒的省区，胃溃疡的发病率远低于其他省区。这是由于辣椒能刺激人体前列腺素E2的释放，有利于促进胃黏膜的再生，维持胃肠细胞功能，防治胃溃疡。二、预防胆结石常吃青椒能预防胆结石。青椒含有丰富的维生素，尤其是维生素C，可使体内多余的胆固醇转变为胆汁酸，从而预防胆结石，已患胆结石者多吃富含维生素C

5、的青椒，对缓解病情有一定作用。红苹果红辣椒防治乳癌研究人员发现，红苹果和红辣椒等“红皮”水果和蔬菜对乳腺癌等肿瘤疾病有防治作用。三、改善心脏功能。以辣椒为主要原料，配以大蒜、山楂的提取物及维生素E，制成“保健品”，食用后能改善心脏功能，促进血液循环。此外，常食辣椒可降低血脂，减少血栓形成，对心血管系统疾病有一定预防作用。四、降血糖。牙买加的科学家通过实验证明，辣椒素能显著降低血糖水平。五、缓解皮肤疼痛。研究发现，辣椒素能缓解诸多疾病引起的皮肤疼痛。实际上，确实有药用的辣椒霜，不过不是用来减肥，而是用来止痛！出人意料吧，能把人辣疼的辣椒素竟然也能止痛？原来通过辣椒素刺激神经可以让产生痛觉必不可少

6、的P物质被释放出去，于是在P物质重新合成积累的这个过程中，人对疼痛就没那么敏感了，起到了止痛的作用。10六、辣椒有减肥作用。辣椒含有一种成分，可以通过扩张血管，刺激体内生热系统，有效地燃烧体内的脂肪，加快新陈代谢，使体内的热量消耗速度加快，从而达到减肥的效果。无色无嗅的辣椒素会让哺乳动物有火辣的灼烧感，是因为它可以刺激感受神经上的一种叫做TRPV1的受体，同时释放出一种与痛觉密切相关的P物质。P物质有扩张血管、加速血流的作用，所以被辣椒素刺激的部位会变红发热。这样的反应和运动以后身体的发热很像，可能因此让人误以为能起到和运动一样的减肥作用。殊不知，运动减肥的真正原因是消耗了大量的能量，发热只是

7、伴随产生的现象。一些研究指出，辣椒素可能具有减肥作用，只不过不是用涂抹辣椒霜的方式，而是直接服用5。但要最终确认有效，并作为安全的药品用于减肥，还需要进一步的研究，并通过药物监管部门严格的安全性有效性审批。10七、防感冒辣味食物具有通利肺气、通达窍表、通顺血脉的“三通”作用。八、抗辐射红辣椒、黑胡椒、咖喱等香辛料，能够保护细胞的DNA免受辐射破坏，尤其是伽马射线。九、助长寿中医认为辛辣食物既能促进血液循环，又能增进脑细胞活性，有助延缓衰老，纾缓多种疾病。十、暖胃驱寒。食物本草中说，辣椒能温暖脾胃。如果遇寒出现呕吐、腹泻、肚子疼等症状，可以适当吃些辣椒。十一、促进血液循环。辣椒有一定的药性，因此

8、能“除风发汗，行痰，除湿。”用现代医学解释，就是能促进血液循环，改善怕冷、冻伤、血管性头疼。十二、肌肤美容。辣椒能促进体内激素分泌，改善皮肤状况。许多人觉得吃辣会长痘，其实并不是辣椒的问题。只有本身就爱长痘的体质，吃完辣椒才会火上浇油。十三、降脂减肥。辣椒素能加速脂肪分解，丰富的膳食纤维也有一定的降血脂作用。Pepper medical valueNutritional disease preventionFor most people, the spiciness of the pepper just feel the taste organs, but in fact, the spici
