1, sweet potatoes should not be eaten too much, so as not to cause discomfort such as abdominal distension, pantothenic acid, heartburn and stomach pain;
2. If the sweet potato is eaten raw, the amylase in the sweet potato should not be digested, so it is best to steam it before eating;
3, eating sweet potatoes on an empty stomach, it is easy to cause tannins and gums in sweet potatoes to stimulate the stomach, secrete more stomach acid and cause discomfort;

Sweet potatoes can't be eaten with anything.
1, food rich in starch
Sweet potato itself is a food rich in starch, and its indigestible amylose content is higher than that of traditional staple food, so it is not easy to digest. Eating more other foods rich in starch, especially those rich in amylose such as soybeans, red beans, lentils, kidney beans and Mi Dou, will increase the burden of digestion and easily lead to gastrointestinal discomfort.
2. Foods rich in pectin
The rich starch in sweet potato can promote the secretion of saliva and digestive juice, resulting in more gastric acid in the stomach, while pectin will react in a large amount of gastric acid, and the generated components are not easy to digest and should not be eaten together. Common foods rich in pectin include persimmons, dried persimmons, tomatoes, figs, black dates, yacon, pitaya and so on.
3. Foods rich in cellulose
Sweet potato has a high starch content and is difficult to digest by itself. However, eating too much cellulose is not conducive to digestion, and it will absorb water and swell in the intestine, causing abdominal discomfort. So it is not recommended to eat too much together. Common ones are: black sesame, plum, bamboo shoot, dried bracken, dried bean curd, passion fruit and so on.
4. Foods rich in fat
The digestion of fat is the most difficult, and the burden on the stomach and spleen is aggravated by eating too much. Coupled with the rich starch of sweet potato, it is easy to have digestive problems. Common foods rich in fat are: fat, lard, fried food, poultry skin, cake, black sesame and so on.
5, indigestible food with food
It is recommended to eat these foods after 2-3 hours. Sweet potato is sweet and flat, and contains pectin, cellulose, carotene, potassium, folic acid, sugar and other nutrients. Generally, after eating for 2-3 hours, a part is basically digested from the stomach. Eating other indigestible foods at this time is not easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort, so this way of eating is healthier and healthier.
