Whoever speaks, but ice cream is an inalienable part of the life of mankind. According to one version 3000 years ago, Chinese emperors discovered that mountain snow, mixed with orange juice, lemons, and pomegranate beans, is something delicious and refreshing. According to another version in the former Persia, which means today's Iran, the natives mixed fruit syrup with snow and that no one else, and Alexander the Macedonian himself ate what it was, during their march in these places.

But if there is anything in common between the two versions, it is the fact that both in China and in Persia there are high mountains full of snow and ice, and yet the idea of ​​how to keep it in summertime belongs to a Persian who in 400 Yr. "Invented" deeply dug into the ground and perfectly heat-insulated by any means for that long-time "cold" holes. Ice cream conquers Europe thanks to the famous Italian traveler Marco Polo, who lives in the Chinese Imperial Court for 17 years. Returning to Italy, he brought with him the recipe for the sweet icy temptation and the secret of keeping the ice on the ground, as it happened somewhere in the end of the 13th century, after which the icing of the ice became favorite ten in the noble homes. And when Princess Catherine Medici married Frenchman Henri II, at the wedding held on October 28, 1533, the Italian pasta made specially by Italy brought ice cream to the guests, and then the ice cream road in France was opened.

At the time of Louis XIV everyone enjoys the icy temptation, but what is the problem for the Sun King to order in Versailles thirteen ice coolers? Shortly thereafter, in 1686, Francesco Procopius opened the first café in Paris, known today as Le Procope, where he offered vanilla cream ice cream, and as soon as Comedy Francese was discovered, we can guess How after the end of a show the audience went to "Le Procope" to finish with a glass of ice cream a pleasant evening.

How exactly is the ice cream in England can not be said, but it is known that at a feast at Windsor Castle in 1671, King Charles II draws his guests with ice cream and, as is known, his mother, Maria Bourbonne, before becoming Queen of England, however, is a French princess who knows every corner of Versailles ... Somewhere there is the premiere of ice cream in Russia, for a short time turned into a favorite treat, mainly of the aristocrats, and in the 19th century memories are encountered descriptions of the effect He had the rum flour and flamboyant sweet on the audience The "Mont Blanc Vesuvius" or the amazing ice cream rebuilding of an ancient temple, in different colors ...

The first New Zealand waitresses in England, of course, have brought ice cream to America and have been home-cooked for years, while in 1851, Jacob Fusel's milk retailer did not create the first ice cream factory in Baltimore ... .Americans also invented the first ice cream machine, And the first freezer, the first waffle cone, and the first Eskimo ice cream, but they are therefore Americans - to be innovative.

For how delicious the ice cream is, we have nothing to talk about, but see what the experts say about its beneficial attributes: Ice cream normalizes the level of acid in the stomach, a cause of some diseases such as gastritis, ulcer, and pancreatitis.

The ice cream contains fat, but they are of such a size that the body assimilates them without having to subject them to long digestion processes. Because of this, ice cream gives energy to the body. Ice cream contains valuable and quick-drying proteins, except that they contain much of the so-called essential amino acids that participate in the cytoplasm of each living cell and guarantee the good immune system of a person. Ice cream also contains lactose, the only variety of animal sugar that is not bound to obesity. Lactose works favorably on the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and cholesterol.

In addition, this sugar is not dangerous to the teeth, and in the oral cavity, it not only does not create conditions for the propagation of pathogenic microorganisms and respectively the formation of caries but, on the contrary, limits these processes. Ice cream does not destroy the vitamins contained in it, although its temperature is minus 5-6 degrees. In a sweet ice temptation, there are 10% of the daily requirement of a person of vitamin B2, as well as a large amount of vitamin A1, vitamin B6, and vitamin B5. The ice cream also contains some of the most valuable minerals - calcium and form for.

If we eat an ice cream a day, we will provide 10% of the calcium necessary for our body. Ice cream also contains water, but it has a higher biological activity than ordinary, because of about 80% of its molecules, when frozen, retain their structure. Such water has a positive effect on the liver, stops the absorption of carbohydrates from the intestine, increases the stability of erythrocytes in the blood, affects positively the body's adaptation processes. And finally the most important thing.

The ice cream contains the irreplaceable amino acid tryptophan, which activates the production of serotonin in the human brain. And it is known that the "hormone of happiness" reduces nervous tension and the feeling of fatigue, removes anxiety and generally creates a positive mood. All this has made you convinced that ice cream is an integral part of the life of mankind, moreover, that mankind simply can not live without ice cream ... !!!
