Yam cannot be eaten with crucian carp, banana, rapeseed, persimmon, potato, cucumber, pumpkin and other foods.

1. Don’t eat yam and crucian carp together: Eating yam and crucian carp together can easily cause edema.

2. Don’t eat yam and banana together: Eating yam and banana together can easily cause abdominal distension and abdominal pain.

3. Yams and rapeseed cannot be eaten together: yam replenishes qi, while rapeseed breaks qi. Eating them together will easily reduce the therapeutic effect.

4. Don’t eat yam and persimmon together: Eating yam and banana together can easily cause abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and vomiting.

5. Yams cannot be eaten together with potatoes: Eating potatoes will cause the stomach to secrete a large amount of gastric acid. Gastric acid will promote the combination of tannic acid in yam with protein to produce precipitates that are difficult to digest and discharge. Eating yams and potatoes together for a long time can lead to indigestion and stomach stones.

6. Yams cannot be eaten with cucumbers and pumpkins: Cucumbers and pumpkins contain vitamin C-degrading enzymes. If eaten with yams, vitamin C will be decomposed and destroyed, reducing the nutritional value of yams.
