According to relevant information, grapes contain sugars such as glucose, sucrose, fructose, and xylose; acids such as citric acid, malic acid, and citric acid. They also contain nutrients like protein, carotene, and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, and potassium, which are particularly beneficial to the brain. Wen Caihong, a nutritionist at the City Second People's Hospital, points out that improper consumption of grapes can also lead to physical discomfort.
Wen Caihong explains that you cannot drink water immediately after eating grapes, otherwise, you will have diarrhea in less than fifteen minutes. Grapes themselves have a laxative effect. If you drink water right after eating grapes, the stomach hasn't had time to digest and absorb the water, and the stomach acid is diluted. The grapes, water, and stomach acid undergo rapid oxidation and fermentation, accelerating intestinal movement and causing diarrhea.
Grapes and milk cannot be eaten together because grapes contain fruit acids, which can cause the protein in milk to coagulate. This not only affects absorption but in severe cases can lead to symptoms like bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Therefore, you should eat grapes one hour after drinking milk.
Avoid eating grapes when consuming seafood. Eating grapes, hawthorn, pomegranates, persimmons, and other fruits with seafood can cause symptoms like vomiting, bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. This is because these fruits contain tannic acid, which reacts with the protein in seafood to form coagulated precipitates that are difficult to digest.
Be sure to rinse your mouth after eating grapes. Some grapes contain various fermentable sugars that are highly corrosive to teeth and can easily cause cavities.
