Taboos for collocation of loofah
Luffa can't be paired with loach.
Luffa and Misgurnus anguillicaudatus should not be eaten together, otherwise it will easily destroy the absorption of vitamin B 1 by human body. Luffa contains more vitamin B 1. If it is fried with Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, the vitamin 8 1 catabolic enzyme in Misgurnus anguillicaudatus will destroy vitamin B 1, so this eating method should be avoided.
Luffa can't match bamboo shoots.
When cooking loofah, you can't burn it with bamboo shoots, which is also undesirable. The combination of the two can easily damage the absorption and utilization of carotenoids by human body, and it is not suitable to fry loofah with bamboo shoots, because loofah is rich in carotenoids, which will damage the absorption and utilization of carotenoids by human body and reduce the nutrition of loofah.
Luffa can't go with white wine.
Don't drink liquor when eating loofah, because loofah is rich in vitamin B 1 and alcohol in liquor will interfere with the absorption and utilization of vitamin B 1 and reduce the therapeutic effect of loofah, so this collocation should be avoided.
Luffa can indeed be used to treat many diseases, and it can also have a certain curative effect, which is very commendable. However, when cooking dishes, loofah should be careful not to mix these ingredients introduced above wrongly at the same time, otherwise it will produce some adverse reactions, which is very unfavorable to health. I hope everyone can avoid it.
