Warm tips
Not suitable for eating on an empty stomach
The sugar content of fresh litchi is very high. Eating it on an empty stomach will stimulate the gastric mucosa and cause stomach pain and distention. In addition, if you eat too much on an empty stomach, you will suddenly add too much high sugar to your body, resulting in a 'hypertonic coma'.
Take care of diabetes patients
Litchi has a high sugar content, so people with diabetes should be careful. At the same time, people who have the symptoms of yin deficiency and fire are not allowed to eat, so as to avoid aggravating the symptoms of fire. Dry sore throat, gums swelling pain, epistaxis and other diseases should also be avoided.
Try not to eat water soaked lychees
At present, many litchi in the market are soaked with water, which contains a lot of water. A large amount of water will dilute the digestive fluid after entering the gastrointestinal tract, causing anorexia or dyspepsia, and also causing temporary hypoglycemia.
