You can eat mutton stewed with potatoes and eggplant. There is no food incompatibility between the three. Food conflict is a myth.

“In nutrition, there are no taboos between food and food, only taboos between food and diseases.” Song Xin, a nutritionist at the Department of Nutrition, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, believes that people who suffer from certain diseases are not interested in certain diseases. Food should be avoided. For example, if a patient has high blood lipids, he or she should not eat high-fat foods.

“It is said that ‘mutton should be avoided with watermelon and chicken should not be chrysanthemum, otherwise they will be poisoned if eaten together.’ But these foods are often eaten together at the table, and no one has been poisoned!” Department of Nutrition and Food Safety, China Agricultural University Associate Professor Fan Zhihong said. She believes that the so-called "mutual conflict" can be divided into two categories: one is related to "reducing nutrient absorption" or "causing certain nutrient damage"; the other is related to poisoning, illness, etc.

The former is almost harmless, while the latter has a prerequisite for causing harm due to eating certain foods. Take shrimp and vitamin C as an example. It is rumored that eating them together will cause poisoning. The reason is that shrimp contains a very high concentration of "pentavalent arsenic compounds", which vitamin C will convert into highly toxic trivalent arsenic, that is, arsenic. This has led to the spread of seafood It cannot be eaten with foods containing vitamin C.

In fact, only 100-200 mg of arsenic is fatal. The standard for arsenic content in general fish in my country is 0.1 mg/kg. That is to say, even if you eat 10 kg of qualified aquatic products, plus Enough vitamin C will not cause poisoning.
