Hematogen - sweetness or medicine?
Going to the pharmacy is not the most pleasant thing in the world. Everything there reminds of illness, poor health. Pleases only a showcase with medicinal sweets ... or sweet medicines ... (whoever likes it more!). One of the most affordable sweet medicines, hematogen, is familiar from childhood. This bar brightens up the dull contemplation of medicines in the pharmacy. But what useful and medicinal does hematogen conceal in itself?
Hematogen is a pleasant-tasting bar that successfully replaces a chocolate bar, and is just as successfully imposed on children by adults in order to please them with some kind of sweetness - a delicacy not for everyone! Hematogen bar is a supplement with a high protein content of Hemoglobin (more precisely, Albumin) - a source of iron in the body.
Next, there will be information that children are not recommended to know about in order to avoid a decrease in the popularity of the Hematogen bar in their eyes. On an industrial scale, the protein Hemoglobin is extracted from the blood of cattle. The blood is dried to a powdery state (disinfecting accordingly) and mixed with components that improve the taste of the bar, bringing it to the level of imitation of chocolate. In addition to the main component (blood), the bar contains honey, starch, condensed milk, sugar, vanillin. In the composition of Hematogen, sugar (about 40%), condensed milk (about 35%) and starch (about 20%) prevail in relation to Albumin (4-5%), for which it was created.
Why is Hematogen not useful for everyone?
An excess of iron in the body is as sick as a lack of it. The most common symptom of excess iron in the body is hemochromatosis. But until the moment when this disease attracts your attention with its external manifestations, the liver and myocardium will suffer from an excess of iron. With an excessive accumulation of iron in the tissues of the liver and muscle tissue of the heart, degenerative processes occur in these organs, replacing the liver parenchyma and muscle fibers of the myocardium with connective tissue.
The percentage of carbohydrates in the bar contains more Hematogen than chocolate, which will inevitably affect metabolic processes in the body and can lead to obesity.
And, of course, the Hematogen bar is not a sweetness for those suffering from diabetes, since it contains a very high percentage of glucose, which is harmful in diabetes.
To whom and how is Hematogen useful?
The Hematogen bar is created for people suffering from iron deficiency states due to various pathological processes occurring in the body, for example, with iron deficiency anemia, insufficiently enriched diet with iron-containing foods.
Unconditional use of Hematogen in food is any kind of blood loss. In conditions of bleeding, Hematogen is an ambulance aimed at replenishing the Hemoglobin protein lost during the period of tissue bleeding.
An imprudent enthusiasm for the Hematogen bar can turn into a disease that did not exist!
