On the 25th, a video titled ‘Shin Bong-seon’s diet pickled onion recipe that removes all fat’ was posted on the YouTube channel ‘ㄴShin Bong-seonㄱ’. In this video, Shin Bong-seon introduced pickled onions that ‘cleanse your mouth cleanly when dieting.’ He first peeled the onions, then prepared vinegar and allulose. Shin Bong-seon said, “I’ll make it with half allulose and one part vinegar,” adding, “It shouldn’t be too sweet. “I’ll add a little more vinegar,” he said, boiling the water. After completing the pickled onions, Shin Bong-seon tasted it with her acquaintances. Acquaintances who tasted it said, “The texture is so good. However, reactions such as “It’s too sour”, “It tastes just like Shin Bong-seon”, “But it tastes like the fat has gone all the way down”. Let’s learn more about the efficacy of ingredients in the diet pickled onion recipe revealed by Shin Bong-seon.
◇Onion
Onions contain an antioxidant nutrient called quercetin, which is effective for dieting. Quercetin breaks down lipids in the body, such as neutral fat and cholesterol, and excretes them out of the body. In particular, regular consumption of onion juice prevents fat accumulation in the body and helps prevent obesity. If drinking onion juice is burdensome, you can also add onions when eating fatty foods such as pork. Allyl sulfide, which gives onions their spicy taste, helps prevent diabetes by promoting the secretion of insulin, which lowers blood sugar levels. In addition, the quercetin and allyl sulfide in onions are not destroyed even when cooked, so they can be eaten raw or roasted.
◇Vinegar
Among vinegars, various organic acids contained in fermented vinegar promote nutrient absorption and help maintain a feeling of fullness for a long time, helping with weight loss. In addition, the acetic acid in vinegar relieves fatigue by breaking down lactic acid and is effective in weight control by breaking down fat. According to a 1953 study by Krebs in the UK and Dr. Lippmann in the US, the citric acid in vinegar prevents miscarriage, which is the cause of aging and fatigue. However, you should refrain from actions such as eating a spoonful of vinegar on an empty stomach just because vinegar is good for you. This is because vinegar can irritate the stomach or esophagus and cause harm to health. Use vinegar to season food appropriately.
◇Allulose
If you’re on a diet and want to add sweetness to your food, it’s a good idea to lightly sprinkle on 0-calorie allulose. Allulose is a rare natural sugar found in fruits such as figs and raisins, and is excreted more than 98% of the time without being absorbed by the body. However, some people may experience side effects. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns that excessive consumption of allulose may cause temporary abdominal discomfort. Therefore, allulose should be consumed in appropriate amounts. It is recommended to consume less than 0.4g per kg of body weight per day.
