What are the taboos for eating fruits?
Although fruits can be greatly beneficial, it's also important to avoid excessive consumption to prevent serious harm to your body. So, what are the taboos to keep in mind when eating fruits?
1. Apple: Apple juice can stop diarrhea, eating it on an empty stomach can relieve constipation, and eating it after a meal can aid digestion. However, apples are rich in sugars and potassium, and excessive intake is not good for the heart and kidneys. People with coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, nephritis, or diabetes should strictly avoid eating too many.
2. Pear: It has effects like relieving coughs, reducing phlegm, and clearing dryness, and is effective for treating coughs, asthma, wind-heat, and pharyngitis. Because it's cooling in nature, people with a weak spleen and stomach, who spit clear saliva, or have loose stools should eat it with caution. Also, due to its high sugar content, overeating can raise blood sugar, so diabetics should eat it in moderation.
3. Citrus fruits: They contain a large amount of carotene, which converts into Vitamin A in the blood and accumulates in the body, causing the skin to turn yellow, leading to "carotenemia," commonly known as "orange jaundice." This is followed by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and general fatigue. After developing "orange jaundice," one should consume more vegetable oil and drink more water to accelerate its dissolution, conversion, and excretion.
4. Persimmon: It is rich in vitamins A, C, and tannic acid, with a rich nutritional profile, and has effects like lowering blood pressure, stopping bleeding, clearing heat, lubricating the intestines, and moistening the lungs to generate fluids. However, it contains a large amount of persimmon gum and pectin. When it encounters stomach acid, it can condense into a fibrous mass, a "bezoar," leading to epigastric pain and indigestion. Also, because pectin has an astringent effect, it is contraindicated for people with constipation. It should not be taken on an empty stomach, nor eaten with crabs or sweet potatoes, as this更容易更容易形成胃柿石.
5. Pomegranate: It contains a large amount of fructose and various vitamins and minerals. It is sweet and warm in nature, making it a fruit for damp-heat conditions. Pomegranate is effective for treating dysentery, prolapsed rectum, and pharyngitis, but people with a weak constitution, yin deficiency, and internal heat should eat it with caution. Those with early-stage diarrhea and dysentery with damp-heat should also not eat the fresh fruit. Even for healthy people, it should not be eaten in excess, as it can damage teeth and cause loss of appetite.
6. Water caltrop and water chestnut: Many people eat raw water caltrops by biting the skin and eat raw water chestnuts without peeling them, without disinfecting and sterilizing them, which can easily lead to an infection with Fasciolopsis buski. Fasciolopsis buski is a thick fluke that looks very much like a slice of ginger under a microscope. After entering the human body, it parasitizes in the small intestine, leading to malnutrition, weight loss, and anemia, with greater harm to children. Furthermore, both are cooling and slippery in nature, so even healthy people should not eat too much. Those with a weak spleen and stomach, loose stools and diarrhea, or insufficient kidney yang should all avoid them.
7. Grape: Grapes have a sugar content of up to 10%-30%, mainly glucose. The large amount of fruit acid in grapes aids digestion, and eating a moderate amount of grapes can strengthen the spleen and stomach. Regular consumption of grapes is very beneficial for neurasthenia and over-fatigue. Grapes are high in sugar and iron, making them a great tonic for women, children, and the weak and anemic. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that grapes are sweet and slightly sour, and neutral in nature, with effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, benefiting qi and blood, stimulating the appetite, generating fluids, and promoting urination. Diabetics and those with constipation should not eat too many; people with a weak spleen and stomach should also avoid excessive consumption, as it can cause diarrhea.
Although fruits are very beneficial to our bodies, it is crucial to remember not to overeat them to avoid serious harm. Additionally, if you experience adverse effects from eating too much fruit, be sure to seek timely medical examination and treatment at a regular hospital.
