      Eating too much fried peanuts can easily lead to internal heat

      The "burning" of food is closely related to the destruction and loss of the hydrogen bonds of bound water in it. Experiments show that when frying peanuts, the temperature suddenly rises to above 120°C, which not only removes the 'free water' in the peanuts, but also destroys the hydrogen bonds in the 'bound water', turning the originally sweet and flat peanuts into fried peanuts with a hot and dry nature. After ingesting fried peanuts, the bound water in the food repairs itself, releasing a large amount of energy. This extra released energy destroys the hydration membrane on the surface of the human upper gastrointestinal tract tissue, activates the sodium pump, enhances energy metabolism activities, and produces excessive heat, resulting in excessive local heat release and 'inflammation'.

      This is precisely the theory of traditional Chinese medicine that "insufficient water cannot control fire", which causes the human body to suffer from excessive "fire". This kind of 'heat' cannot be effectively relieved by drinking a lot of water. Taking traditional Chinese medicine that nourishes yin and reduces fire can be effective.
