The blue effect is the effect of defecating due to the combination of water-soluble dietary fiber, pectin and sorbitol. Insoluble dietary fiber absorbs food in the stomach and water in the large intestine and changes it into a gel form, and water-soluble dietary fiber acts to discharge waste from the body, pectin softens the hardened stool to make it easier to discharge, and sorbitol absorbs moisture and expands, stimulating the intestine to induce bowel movements.
In addition, even if purun contains a large amount of vitamin A, it has effects such as skin health, improving immunity, and preventing aging.
Taylor’s blue juice (purun concentrate) is a representative food that is well known for purun. Taylor’s purun juice is a compressed 100% blue juice, and it is good to drink 2-300 ML of water or milk a day. In addition, one way is to eat about 10 dried (dry) prunes with furun. If you have a severe constipation, it is recommended to eat it with yogurt.
The side effect of furun is that too much intake may cause diarrhea. It is known that the daily intake of furun is about 100g (10 to 12 purun excluding seeds) is appropriate.
