It is not recommended to eat with other hot fruits

At present, the weather is very hot. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the yang of Sanfu Tianren floats on the body surface, but the body is cold, and the litchi is warm and wet, so it is suitable for consumption in summer.

Wang Chenxiao reminded that although lychee is all treasures, they must be controlled when eating.

As the proverb says, "a litchi and three fires", eating is more easily hot and humid and stagnant.

If you eat a large amount in an empty stomach, it is prone to symptoms such as hypoglycemia and dizziness, which is the "litchi disease" often mentioned.

Wang Chenxiao suggested that consumption of lychee should control the amount, not to be greedy for deliciousness. It is advisable to eat no more than 300g of daily food and no more than 5 children. Try to choose mature lychee and eat between two meals.

Patients with diabetes, acute inflammation, and fever colds are not recommended.

Litchi is best not to eat with cucumber, carrots, and pumpkins, because vitamin C enzymes in these foods will destroy vitamin C in lychee and reduce its nutritional value.

Litchi should not be eaten with milk, because the fruit acid in the lychee is condensed into pieces when it encounters protein, which affects the digestion and absorption of milk.

Litchi is hot. It is not recommended to eat with hot fruits, such as longan, durian, jackfruit, etc.

How to eat to better play the effect of lychee? Wang Chenxiao shared two dietary recipes about litchi:

Prepare 5 lychee to take the pulp, add 50g rice porridge to eat, can benefit qi and spleen, relieve the annoyance, and use it to relieve upset and thirst.

Take 5 lychee dried, 5g of Huai yam, 9g of lotus seeds, and then add 10 jujube, decoction or porridge, can warm the sun, strengthen the spleen, and stop diarrhea. diarrhea.
