Lychee eating too much can cause lychee disease, which is related to the substances contained in lychee. Litchi contains methylpropyl cyclic glycine, this substance can lower blood sugar, if the intake of too much litchi, easy to cause low blood pressure and the occurrence of dizziness, which is also known as the medical "litchi disease".

Lychee contains a lot of sugar, of which fructose accounts for the majority, fructose into the digestive tract, will be absorbed by the capillaries of the gastrointestinal mucosa into the blood. We know that fructose is a polysaccharide that cannot be directly digested and absorbed by the body, and needs to be converted into glucose by the liver before it can be absorbed by the body.

If you eat a lot of lychee, there will be a lot of fructose that needs to be converted by the liver. The fructose-converting enzyme that converts fructose is limited and cannot convert fructose in a timely manner, resulting in the accumulation of fructose in the blood vessels, which cannot be converted into glucose in a timely manner for the body to absorb and utilize.

And at this time the body because of the consumption of excessive lychee, resulting in a decrease in appetite, and the body does not get other nutrients supply, will lead to human blood glucose drop, resulting in a drop in blood pressure, which is known as the "lychee disease".
