Taboo 1, lemon cannot be eaten with seafood.
Seafood foods such as shrimp, crab, sea cucumber and jellyfish are rich in nutrients such as protein and calcium, while lemon contains more 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 and milk are grams.
Similarly, milk is rich in protein and calcium. Eating lemon and milk together will also affect the digestion of the stomach.
