Peanuts are very rich in nutrition, which contains proteins, amino acids can be absorbed by the body, especially the lysine can supplement the cereal deficiency.


In addition, peanuts also contain more vitamins, B1, vitamin B2, vitamin E, selenium and other trace elements, the presence of these substances can make peanuts have good antioxidant properties.


The unsaturated fatty acids and sterols contained in peanuts can lower cholesterol and moisturize the skin.


But although peanuts are good, the intake should be controlled.


Peanuts can accelerate cancer metastasis?


The medical journal "Carcinogenesis" has published a study by a team led by the University of Liverpool in the United Kingdom, found that peanut agglutinin tends to increase the risk of heterotypic adhesion of cancer cells in the vascular endothelium.


But also tends to promote cancer cells to generate homotypic aggregates.


Among the animal experiments, peanut agglutinin can promote the spread of cancer cells.


So it was concluded that peanuts may promote cancer.


The international medical journal "Cancer" also published a study conducted by researchers at the University of Liverpool in 2021.


It found that after ingesting a certain amount of peanuts, peanut cohesin reacts with the endothelial cells of the blood vessel wall to produce interleukin 6, a monocyte chemotactic protein.


These two substances are key mediators of cancer cell metastasis.


The study also found that peanut cohesin promotes cancer cell metastasis is subject to two conditions, one is the cancer patient, and the other is the amount of peanut consumption.


A single consumption of more than 250 grams, followed by an hour may bring the risk of cancer cell metastasis.


It can be seen that cancer patients as long as the amount of peanut intake, there is no risk of cancer metastasis, and low dose intake occurs is beneficial.


Doctors remind: these 4 types of people are not recommended to eat peanuts


1. People with high oil secretion


Because peanuts contain a large amount of phosphoric acid, so it is not suitable for people with strong oil secretion.

3. Patients with chronic kidney disease


Peanuts are high-protein food.


Protein metabolism and reabsorption is completed by the kidneys.


Kidney disease people with impaired glomerular filtration, eating too much peanuts will increase the burden on the kidneys, resulting in the production of urine protein, and even aggravate kidney disease.


4. Patients with liver and biliary diseases


Peanuts need the help of bile to be digested and absorbed.


Peanuts will promote the form of free fatty acids, from the liver parts to the blood.


So it will affect the liver and gallbladder fat metabolism, liver and gallbladder disease people eating peanuts will appear after diarrhea and loose stools and other indigestion symptoms.
