First, the harm of eating oranges and shrimps together
1, affecting protein absorption.
The fruit acid contained in oranges will react with protein, calcium and other ingredients in shrimp and solidify to form a precipitate, which will not only affect the absorption and digestion of protein and other ingredients, but also stimulate the stomach, causing discomfort, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms.
2, produce harmful compounds
Shrimp contains pentavalent arsenic, which will react with vitamin C in oranges to generate arsenic trioxide, namely arsenic. Although the arsenic produced by eating shrimp and oranges at the same time may not reach the threshold of human poisoning, the possibility of poisoning is not ruled out, especially if you eat oranges and shrimps in large quantities at one time or for a long time.
Second, the precautions for eating oranges
Oranges should not be eaten with shrimps, nor with milk, crabs, eggs and other foods rich in protein, so as not to affect the digestion and absorption of food. In addition, citrus fruits and kiwifruit rich in vitamin C should not be eaten with foods rich in protein.
