Pectin is a polysaccharide of plant origin. It refers to soluble fibers. In varying amounts found in almost all berries, fruits and vegetables. The industry uses apple pomace, sugar beet pulp, citrus peels and sunflower baskets as a source of pectin. This "waste" contains from 10 to 35% of this substance.
One of the properties of pectin - the ability to thicken liquids - is used in the confectionery industry for the production of jams, marmalades, jellies and marmalades. The industry produces pectin in two forms: powder and liquid. Each form is used in different recipes. In the confectionery industry, the most popular pectin is apple pectin, while citrus pectin is more often used in dairy and canning.
Another useful property of this substance: the ability to bind and remove heavy metals, cholesterol, pesticides andradionuclides, allows it to be used as a prophylactic agent. Pectin is an excellent "cleaner", which gently and effectively picks up all the harmful components accumulated in the body and, at the same time, does not disturb the biochemical balance of the body. Official medicine has been using it for a long time to treat the gastrointestinal tract, to prevent the development of diabetes and the occurrence of cancer.
Due to the viscous, enveloping consistency, pectin forms a film on the walls of the stomach and intestines, which gently adsorbs (absorbs) the substances, deposits and undigested residues located there. Thus, it cleanses and restores the efficiency of the intestines and stomach. Pectin is a way to lower blood cholesterol levels, improve peripheral circulation, cleanse the intestines and improve its peristalsis. It can be used for
prevention of allergic manifestations due to the ability to create insoluble compounds with heavy metals and "bad" cholesterol. These compounds are not absorbed in the intestines and are excreted from the body naturally. Due to these properties, pectin is widely used in pharmacology and is included in various food supplements.
These positive properties have led to a fairly high popularity that pectin has. It can cause harm only in case of prolonged uncontrolled intake. With overdoses, there is a deterioration in the absorption of nutrients in the intestines, the appearance of fermentation processes.and flatulence. If fruits, fruits and berries are used as sources of pectin, then there is no question of any overdose. If you decide to take one of the pharmacological forms for prevention, then carefully follow the recommendations, do not exceed the dosage and do not prolong the course of treatment (or prevention) without consulting a doctor.
When used wisely, pectin is an opportunity to heal your body and improve the functioning of the digestive system. For residents of large cities, pectin will avoid the accumulation of heavy metals, which are present in large quantities in the atmosphere.
