Matters needing attention in eating red dates
One: Not suitable for eating with cucumber or radish.
Radish has anti-blood acid enzyme, and cucumber contains vitamin decomposing enzyme. These two ingredients are the nemesis of jujube, which will destroy the vitamins of jujube, thus leading to the loss of nutritional value of jujube.
Two: Do not overdo it.
The compendium of materia medica says: "Eating too much makes people feel cold and hot, and anyone who is thin is inedible." It is not suitable for people with abdominal distension and loss of appetite. Because of its high sugar content, diabetic patients should not eat red dates, which are sweet, pungent and hot, and tend to produce phlegm and dampness. After people with excessive phlegm and dampness eat more red dates, the original symptoms are easy to aggravate, and adverse reactions such as cold, heat, thirst and bloating appear. You should also pay attention to protecting your teeth when eating dates. It is advisable to eat no more than 50 grams of dates every day.
Three: Eat raw red dates to replenish blood.
Jujube contains a lot of iron, which has a great effect on iron deficiency anemia. It can also promote the growth of white blood cells, improve serum albumin and protect the liver. When eaten raw, jujube peel is easy to stay in the intestine and is not easy to be discharged, which affects gastrointestinal digestion. Excessive intake will cause flatulence in the stomach and easily lead to obesity. It is recommended to do it 2 to 3 times a week.
Four: It is best not to decoct with water.
Because the temperature exceeds 80℃, the vitamin C in jujube is destroyed. After washing with clear water, eating raw is the most nutritious. Eating 5 ~ 8 red dates every day is very beneficial to your health.
Five: Don't eat high-protein food immediately after eating red dates.
Don't eat high food in protein immediately after eating red dates, such as seafood and dairy products. Because vitamin C will make the protein in these two foods hard to be absorbed, we should eat high-protein food after eating jujube1~ 2 hours.
Six: contraindication when taking antipyretics.
Taking antipyretic drugs and eating food with high sugar content can easily form insoluble complex, which reduces the initial absorption rate. Jujube is a food with high sugar content, so it is forbidden to eat.
Seven: You should not eat bitter and stomach-invigorating drugs and wind-expelling and stomach-invigorating drugs.
Bitterness and wind-expelling and stomach-invigorating drugs stimulate the taste organs by the bitterness of drugs, and reflexively improve the excitability of food to the center, so as to help digestion and stimulate appetite. If jujube is used when taking the above drugs, the curative effect of the drugs will be obviously affected.
Not suitable for people who eat red dates.
1, excessive phlegm and dampness
Such people often show thick and greasy tongue coating, sweet mouth or greasy mouth, loss of appetite, and usually feel full stomach. In severe cases, they will be accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, eyelid and facial edema. The greasy nature of jujube is easy to help dampness, which makes it difficult to remove phlegm and dampness in the body, thus aggravating the above discomfort. People with this constitution are more suitable for eating foods such as Coix seed, adzuki bean, yam, loofah, etc.
2. People who love fire
This kind of human body is on the hot side, and often has symptoms such as constipation, bad breath, sore throat and gums, etc., while jujube is sweet and warm, and it tends to be warm and tonic. If eaten in large quantities, it is like adding fuel to the fire.
3. Patients with early cold
At the beginning of a cold, the pathogenic wind-cold or wind-heat invading the human body is flourishing. If you eat jujube at this time, its sticky nature will often lead to the retention of pathogenic factors, resulting in the result of "keeping the door closed", which makes it difficult to drive away the pathogenic factors in the body and is not conducive to recovery.
4. Diabetic patients
Jujube contains more sugar, which will increase the blood sugar of diabetic patients and aggravate their condition. Therefore, people with high blood sugar should not eat more jujubes.
