Honey has always been a very favorite ingredient for people. It has very good health care effects and tastes good. In this way, honey is a very good health ingredient, but it is not suitable for everyone. There are many taboos that everyone needs to know. Next, I will introduce taboo groups and taboo combinations about honey. I hope everyone can pay attention to it.

The following groups of people should pay special attention not to eat honey:

1. Babies under one year old should not eat honey: Although honey is rich in nutrients, it contains botulinum toxin, which can cause infant Symptoms of poisoning in young children, babies less than 6 months old are more susceptible to this disease. Symptoms of poisoning often occur 8 to 36 hours after eating honey or honey-containing foods. Symptoms often include constipation, fatigue, and loss of appetite. Although the chance of botulism infection in babies is very small, doctors still recommend that children should not eat honey and its products before they reach 1 year old. Parents and friends must pay attention to not giving honey to their children if they are under one year old.

2. People with diabetes cannot take honey because the sugar content in honey is relatively high. Every 100 grams of honey carbohydrates contains about 35 grams of glucose, about 40 grams of fructose, about 2 grams of sucrose, and about 1 gram of dextrin. Glucose and fructose are both monosaccharides. After entering the intestine, they can be directly absorbed into the blood without digestion, causing blood sugar to rise. Sucrose and dextrin can be absorbed after being slightly hydrolyzed. Therefore, the blood sugar-raising effect of honey is particularly obvious. From this point of view, diabetics cannot take honey.

Taboos on pairing

1. Honey should not be eaten with tofu. Tofu is sweet, salty, cold in nature, and can clear away heat and disperse blood. Eating it with honey can easily cause diarrhea. At the same time, the various enzymes in honey and the various minerals, plant proteins, organic acids, etc. in tofu are not conducive to the human body's biochemical reactions if honey is eaten together with tofu.

2. Honey should not be eaten with leeks. Leeks are rich in vitamin C, which is easily oxidized by the mineral copper and iron ions in honey and loses its effect. In addition, honey can be a laxative, while leeks are rich in fiber and can cause diarrhea.

3. Honey cannot be brewed with boiling water. Honey is rich in enzymes, vitamins and minerals. If you drink it with boiling water, it will not only fail to maintain its natural color, aroma and taste, but also destroy its nutrients to varying degrees. Therefore, it is best to drink with warm water not exceeding 35℃.

The above is an introduction to some taboo groups and taboo combinations of honey. I hope that everyone must pay attention to taking honey correctly and reasonably in daily life to ensure health and nutrition. If you fall into the category mentioned above If you are a group of people, please avoid taking honey, otherwise it will cause some adverse effects. I hope everyone can pay attention to it.
