Are there any taboos between Chinese medicine and food, between Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine, and between food and food?

In ancient times, Chinese medicine paid attention to "homology of medicine and food". For example, I used to hear that the so-called "medicated diet" was to stew medicinal materials and food together and fry them together. For example, "Shiquan Dabu Soup" and "Bazhen Soup" are usually cooked with chicken, duck or ribs, while the popular "Shen Si Soup" in Taiwan Province Province is usually cooked with fat intestines and pork bellies.

Invigorating qi and avoiding radish

Many people think that eating Chinese medicine can't eat radish. In fact, you should just take some drugs to avoid radish, such as Polygonum multiflorum Thunb and Rehmannia glutinosa Thunb. Rehmannia glutinosa tonifies qi and is sticky, which can protect the qi in the stomach, while radish has the effect of breaking qi. This characteristic of radish is also used to break the sticky effect of rehmannia glutinosa in clinic. Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. It can blacken hair, but if you eat too much radish, it will penetrate into human body fluids and turn your hair white, so radish and Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. They shouldn't be put together. From the point of view of "tonifying and breaking qi", radish should not be eaten with ginseng, astragalus and licorice.

Cure wind and avoid crabs

Many people like eating crabs. In autumn, the ancients described it as interesting to enjoy chrysanthemums while eating crabs. "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "Crab is salty and cold, which can clear away heat and dissipate stagnation, promote blood circulation and dredge collaterals, continue bones and muscles, and apply sores." The paint used in the past is very toxic, it is the juice of sumac tree, which will cause sores when it comes into contact with the skin, while crabs can apply sores. Although eating crab has such advantages, it is very cold, which will chill the stomach and make the wind move, so people with cold stomach can't eat it; And crab claws can be aborted, so pregnant women can't eat them. It is recorded in ancient books that crabs avoid Schizonepeta, which can cure headaches and colds. Many prescriptions, such as Chuanxiong tea powder, contain Schizonepeta tenuifolia. The purpose of eating Schizonepeta tenuifolia is to prevent wind or wind. Eat crabs again and the wind will move again. Of course, these two things can't be eaten together.

Crabs not only avoid eating with Schizonepeta, but also avoid eating with persimmons. Persimmons are autumn fruits. It is recorded in Eating that persimmons and pears cannot be eaten with crabs. Persimmons and crabs are cool, which makes people feel colder. Persimmon also contains tannic acid, and crab meat is rich in protein. Tannic acid will precipitate when it meets protein, which will make the stomach feel worse. Pears taste sweet, sour and cold. Tao Hongjing's "Records of Famous Doctors" records that "pears are cold and beneficial, and eating more hurts people." Crabs also avoid oranges, soft dates, peanuts, loach and so on. And cannot be eaten at the same time.

There is much frost on crabs in autumn. In autumn, female crabs have "crab yellow", that is, crab eggs. There are many creams in the gonads of male crabs, which are especially effective for kidney deficiency. In fact, it is not good to eat too much of these things, because they contain a lot of sex hormones, especially sterols, which accumulate in blood vessels and easily cause "atherosclerosis."

Compendium of Materia Medica records that in case of dystocia or stillbirth, crab claw soup is served immediately. In addition, burning smoke with crab claws can gather rats in court and can be used in the way of killing rats. Aren't there many diseases transmitted by rats now? For example, the "plague", that is, the "black death", mice and squirrels and other infections have caused the spread of this disease. Last year, there was an acute severe pulmonary respiratory syndrome group, also called SARS. Some people say it was infected by civet cats, while others say it was infected by rats. If burning cigarettes with crab claws can collect rats in court, it will be a good way to kill rats.

Crab meat is also easy to breed bacteria, which will be poisoned by crabs. Crab poison can be treated by mashing lotus root nodes with hot wine and mixing them with hot wine. Because eating crabs is easy to cold your stomach, you should pay special attention to using other drugs to warm your stomach when eating.

Crabs should not be eaten with cantaloupes. There are many cantaloupes in Taiwan Province Province, which are delicious, because cantaloupes and crabs are cool. Eating cantaloupe in summer can clear away heat and relieve summer heat, which is sweet, cold and smooth, and can clear away heat and relieve constipation. Eating with crabs will damage the stomach and diarrhea. But is diarrhea good or not? Nowadays, many people suffer from constipation. If they eat a little, it will help diarrhea, maybe they will be happy instead.

In addition, crabs should not be eaten with ice water, which will cause diarrhea.
