Extended information:

The Compendium of Materia Medica says: "Eating too much makes people feel cold and hot, and anyone who is thin should not eat it." It is not suitable for people with abdominal distension and loss of appetite. Because of its high sugar content, diabetic patients should not eat red dates, which are sweet, pungent and hot, and tend to produce phlegm and dampness.

After people with excessive phlegm and dampness eat more red dates, the original symptoms are easy to get worse, resulting in adverse reactions such as cold, heat, thirst and bloating. You should also pay attention to protecting your teeth when eating dates. It is advisable to eat no more than 5 grams of dates every day.

Jujube contains a lot of iron, which has a great effect on iron deficiency anemia, and can also promote the growth of white blood cells, improve serum albumin and protect the liver. However, if you only rely on eating red dates to replenish blood, the effect of enriching blood is very small. If you want to achieve the best effect of enriching blood, you should match some raisins, longan and other foods.

more importantly, if you only eat raw red dates to replenish blood, it will not only have no obvious effect, but also cause flatulence and diarrhea. When eaten raw, jujube peel is easy to stay in the intestine and is not easy to be discharged, which affects gastrointestinal digestion. Excessive intake will cause flatulence in the stomach and easily lead to obesity. It is recommended to do it 2 to 3 times a week.
