I believe that all of us have eaten radish at the dinner table, and ginseng is a nourishing health care product. So have you specifically known whether radish and ginseng can be eaten together? Because some foods are taboo, we can't ignore this problem in our daily life. Let's analyze specifically whether radish and ginseng can be eaten together.

People participate in radish, and the "reason" is the opposite of function.

-ginseng has a strong tonic effect, radish has the effect of smoothing qi, ginseng supplements qi and radish relieves qi, which are contrary to each other.

Expert judgment: this "qi" is not the other "qi"

It is not only a folk tradition to take ginseng and avoid eating radish, but also in some ancient and modern Chinese medicine books. Its basis is that ginseng tonifies qi and radish deflates qi, and both of them will dissolve the tonic effect of ginseng.

However, ginseng supplements the vitality in the human body, and vitality in Chinese medicine refers to the basic function of human physiological activities; Radish deflates, and qi here refers to flatulence caused by gastrointestinal indigestion. Modern nutrition research has confirmed that radish is rich in amylase, which can help digestion and eliminate flatulence. There should be no taboo to take ginseng and eat radish at the same time.

Radish and ginseng can't be eaten together, because they belong to the same food, so we can't eat radish when eating ginseng, so we should pay attention to these common sense, so that we can give full play to the health value of these foods and effectively avoid other adverse effects.
