Lemon taboo:

Lemon can't eat seafood with seafood. Seafood such as shrimp, crab, sea cucumber and jellyfish are rich in nutrients such as protein and calcium, while lemon contains more fruit acid. If lemon and seafood are eaten at the same time, the fruit acid in lemon will solidify protein and combine with calcium to produce indigestible substances, which will not only reduce the nutritional value of food, but also cause gastrointestinal discomfort, so try to avoid eating lemon and seafood together.

Lemon is very similar to milk. Milk is also rich in protein and calcium. Eating lemon and milk together will also affect the digestion of the stomach.

Lemon should not be eaten with carrots, because carrots contain ascorbase, and eating together will destroy vitamin C in lemons.
