Magical enzyme bucket

A recent thing called "enzyme buckets" sold well online, and offline sales were hot in some places. It is said that fruits, vegetables, sugar, water, etc. into it, in a few days can produce wine-flavored fruit and vegetable juice. Sellers claim that the fruit and vegetable juice has a variety of magical health effects, including "regulating gastrointestinal function, balancing the endocrine system, promoting metabolism, anti-inflammatory antibacterial, enhancing immunity, purifying blood, maintaining acid-base balance, treatment of hemorrhoids, gynecological diseases, and weight loss effects" and so on. With such a magical effect, and claimed to be imported by Japan, prices will naturally remain high. On a well-known online trading platform,

conditions, producing alcohol, and the juice tastes like wine. Yeast is a class of single-celled fungi that have more than
,000
species in their natural environment, and they break down monosaccharides and bisaccharides in oxygen-deprived conditions to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide gases, a process known as fermentation.is that enzyme and what is it? This seemingly tall thing is enzymes or bioenzymes, called enzymes in Japan and Taiwan. Bioenzymes are commonly referred to as proteins, and any biological activity requires the catalysis of various enzymes, and yeast fermentation in sealed barrels naturally produces a variety of bioenzymes. So do microbes produce bioenzymes that boast of magical health effects? The cruel truth is: no!enzymes used in the life activities of different organisms are not exactly the same and may not be used by the human body. Bioenzymes are nothing more than proteins that enter our stomachs, degenerate under the action of stomach acids and become inactive, and are further hydrolyzed into amino acids or oligopeptides by our own secreted proteases. The protein in any food we eat is broken down and absorbed. In a word, the so-called enzyme does not have its declared health care effect, enzyme barrel is not worth the high price - you will spend more than
400
yuan to buy a plastic bucket with a small volume?this article should have ended here, but as a perennial laboratory sterilization worker and home-made beer enthusiast, I couldn't help spitting out more about the shortcomings of this plastic bucket.early on began to use fermentation methods to make a variety of food. For example, bread and bread become soft and delicious because of the gas produced by fermentation, otherwise they become dead ends. Jin Dynasty Jiangdu's "Wine" said: "The prosperity of wine, from the emperor; There are endless meals, the empty mulberry, the accumulation of flavor, long-term accumulation of its fragrance, this is for this reason, not by the odd side", pointing out that the ancients began to put leftovers into the tree hole (relatively sealed environment) fermented to make wine. Fermentation of traditional processes usually refers to natural fermentation, in which yeast is cultured in the environment with sugary water, fruit juice or flour, and then used to make pasta and wine. Natural fermentation is often less efficient and easy to cause contamination of germs. In the modern food industry, various yeast strains that have been isolated, purified and modified are fermented for different production purposes.yeast used in the beer industry has many different strains, each producing a beer flavor that will be different. Home brewing requires a properly sized fermentation tank that mixes malt juice, hops and brewing yeast to keep it fermented at the right temperature. There are two points to note in this process: first, the container and malt juice sterilization, to prevent bacterial contamination; Yeast has a characteristic that it ferments to produce alcohol under anaerobic conditions and converts all sugar into carbon dioxide through aerobic breathing under aerobic conditions; The carbon dioxide formed during fermentation increases the pressure in the container, and the resulting carbon dioxide must be discharged in time to prevent the tank from cracking, while also preventing oxygen from entering the fermentation tank. A very practical small device is the water seal , which, when filled with
U
tube, prevents oxygen from entering and emits carbon dioxide.homemade beerwater-sealedcompared to home-brewed beer fermentation cans, the "magic" enzyme barrel above is too shabby. On the one hand, fermentation barrels do not have water seal function, can discharge carbon dioxide can naturally be put into oxygen, its sealing is very bad, and the fermentation process also often stirred, which will allow more oxygen to enter, the result is more sugar by yeast "eat" into useless carbon dioxide rather than alcohol, resulting in waste. On the other hand, fermentation in enzyme barrels is a real natural fermentation, fruit is usually only washed, not strict disinfection, it is difficult to avoid the contamination of germs. Coupled with the tight seal, but also increased the chance of pollution change. Third, the fruit and vegetable juice produced in this way, contains a certain concentration of alcohol, long-term heavy drinking will also cause damage to the body.most people who don't understand what enzymes are don't know that enzyme buckets are a lie. Many other deceptive products are often decorated with a lot of scientific terms, and it's hard for laymen to know if they're really useful, preferring to believe the magic benefits that merchants brag about. Anyone will pay attention to their health, but the diagnosis and treatment of disease is very professional work, need a doctor to carry out a detailed examination, find specific cause factors, in order to target treatment, claiming that all kinds of magical effects of health care products are deceptive. So far, the efficacy of any health care product
