Cucumber paired with chili or celery destroys Vitamin C: Cucumber contains an enzyme that breaks down Vitamin C. In daily life, cucumber is often eaten raw, at which time the Vitamin C-decomposing enzyme in it retains a certain activity. If eaten with foods rich in Vitamin C, such as chili, the Vitamin C-decomposing enzyme in cucumber will destroy the Vitamin C in other foods. Although it is not harmful to the human body, it will reduce the absorption of Vitamin C by the body.
If you want to supplement Vitamin C from foods like chili, celery, kale, or bitter gourd, then it's best not to eat them with cucumber.
