Now is the season for eating lychees. Many people like to eat them and eat many at one time. However, it is not recommended. Eating a large amount of lychees may cause lychee disease. So, what should you do if you feel uncomfortable after eating too many lychees? ? What should you know before eating lychees? I will introduce it below.

What to do if you feel uncomfortable after eating too many lychees

Lychee disease is a type of "hypoglycemia" considered in modern medicine. Mild lychee disease caused by eating a large amount of lychees will cause dizziness, sweating, paleness, fatigue, palpitation, hunger, etc. In severe cases, convulsions, a drop in blood pressure, sudden coma or even death may occur.

What should you do if you feel uncomfortable after eating too much?

Don’t worry too much about mild symptoms. At this time, you should eat some staple food, snacks or drink glucose water or sugar water as soon as possible to correct hypoglycemia. That’s it. But the most important thing is to eat less. For adults, no more than half a catty. It is safer to eat less than 10 pills. For children, it can be reduced by half. At the same time, do not replace staple food with a large amount of lychees, especially instead of dinner, to avoid not seeking medical attention promptly and delaying treatment if you develop a disease at night.

According to relevant research, the longer lychees are stored, the higher their content of hypoglycine A and methylenecyclopropylglycine, two "toxins" that can cause hypoglycemia. Therefore, it is recommended that the general public should consume fresh and mature lychees as soon as possible after purchasing them, which can also prevent lychee disease to a certain extent.

Some things you should know before eating lychees

1. Eating too much lychees may lead to the risk of acne

Because lychees contain too much sugar !

The sugar content of sweet lychees can reach 15 or even higher (every 100 grams of lychee meat contains at least 15 grams of sugar), and the glycemic index (GI) is as high as 70 (high glycemic index). food).

If you eat too much at one time, it will cause great fluctuations in blood sugar and insulin, which may make acne worse.

High sugar content will also put your mouth in a hypertonic state, making you feel dry.

2. Lychees are really easy to spoil, so eat them quickly or put them in the refrigerator as soon as possible

The biggest feature of lychees is not just their sweetness, but... they are easy to spoil.

It has itself to blame.

There are cracks all over the peel, and all the water has escaped;

The oxidase is endlessly producing melanin;

I like to release some ethylene (plant ripening) agent).

These three problems with lychees will be severe when picked from the tree. Then, as long as it is left at room temperature for a day, the lychee will "rush" itself to death.

Now after refrigeration, low oxygen preservation, and fast cold chain transportation... you can now eat relatively fresh lychees all over the country.

Worried about preservatives? It can be washed away with a good rinse.

Don’t leave the lychees you got, either put them in your stomach quickly or put them in the refrigerator. This thing steals time.

If you really can’t finish it, peel off the pulp and freeze it, and you will have a cold and sweet lychee smoothie.

3. Lychees taste better when refrigerated and dipped in soy sauce

Lychees are a fruit with a high fructose content, and the lower the fructose temperature in the fruit, the sweeter it is. Compared with those at room temperature, the sweet and sour taste of lychees after refrigeration is clearer. It is wonderful to eat them after freezing in the summer!
