Absolutely not~

Carrots and white radish both have many benefits for the human body, but they cannot be eaten together. Why? This is determined by the different characteristics of the two. Studies have shown that the reason why white radish has a good digestive effect is because it contains mustard oil, amylase and lignin that help digestion. After being absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, lignin can also stimulate the activity of macrophages and improve The body's immunity; white radish also contains a variety of enzymes, which can eliminate carcinogens and play an anti-cancer role; the interferon inducer contained in white radish can stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa to produce interferon, which can fight against viral infections. , inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. The above-mentioned enzymes, lignin, interferon inducers, etc. are not heat-resistant and will be destroyed at high temperatures of 70°C. It can be seen that if white radish is to better exert its digestive and anti-cancer therapeutic effects, it is best to eat it raw. Carrots are just the opposite. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in the human body. Vitamin A and beta-carotene have the ability to promote the production of photopigments in the eyes, prevent night blindness, enhance the color discrimination ability of the eyes, and improve the problems of eye fatigue and dry eyes. But when carrots are eaten raw, more than 70% of the carotene cannot be absorbed. Researchers have shown through many experiments that there are two most scientific ways to eat carrots: first, cut the carrots into pieces and season them, then stew them with meat. It is best to use a pressure cooker, which can reduce the contact between the carrots and the air. The preservation rate of carotene is as high as 97%; second, cut the carrot into slices, fry it with enough cooking oil and then eat it, so that the absorption and utilization rate of carotene can reach 90%. It can be seen that the cooking method of making carrots and white radish together in cold dishes or stewing them together will lead to a reduction in the nutritional value of one of the radishes. In addition, this cooking method can also induce "civil war" because the content of vitamin C in white radish is very high, while carrots contain a decomposing enzyme that resists vitamin C and can destroy the vitamin C in white radish. When the two meet, the vitamin C in white radish is severely lost, and its nutritional value is naturally greatly reduced. We need to remind everyone that although white radish has a good digestive effect, it is not suitable for people with spleen and stomach deficiency, chronic gastritis, and gastric ulcers to eat large amounts due to its cool nature. For female friends, the intake of carrots should be moderate, otherwise, menstrual disorders and infertility may come to your doorstep. This is because long-term excessive intake of carotene will affect the synthesis of progesterone in the ovary, and some may even cause no menstruation, no ovulation, or menstrual disorders.
