Healthy food is a life necessity for many people, with Group B being the most popular. However, a male graduate student who “ingested 4 capsules of group B per day” still felt fatigued and prone to broken mouth, inflammation and infection and felt that his immunity was weakened. After consulting the doctor, it was discovered that the other party was deficient in nutrition due to the use of the orthodontic appliance to change their eating habits and reduce their food intake.
Family doctor Huang Xilun shared the case in “The Doctor is Hot” program, saying the already thin 20-year-old graduate student has continued to lose weight for the past six months, is prone to fatigue, has weakened immunity, and has frequent colds, cold sores, and urinary tract infections. , or prone to mouth rupture, inflammation or infection. He also questioned and found that the root of the problem had a lot to do with the eating habits of graduate students.
One graduate student said that after wearing the appliance six months ago, to keep the appliance clean and reduce cleaning time, she chose to eat less and instead of eating liquid and soft foods, and sometimes replaced the meal. main with a cup of tea with milk or juice. During the consultation, Dr. Huang Xilun’s claim about nutritional deficiencies was once suspected, pointing out that “I eat 4 B groups a day”.
Huang Xilun explained that supplementing B group without the intake of proteins, lipids and vitamins will result in “no nutrients to replace energy”, which of course will not have a positive effect on the body. To put it bluntly, the way to eat only group B is wrong, and emphasizes group B “It’s just a help”, it’s just a coenzyme that metabolizes nutrients into energy (cofactors involved in key metabolic processes), without nutrients in the body, “No matter how much group B eats, it will not be effective.”
