How to eat litchi without getting angry?
Not suitable for eating litchi in large quantity
Eating litchi in large quantity and rarely, it is easy to cause sudden hypoglycemia, dizziness, thirst, nausea, sweating, stomachache, palpitation and other phenomena. In serious cases, coma, convulsion, arrhythmia and so on will occur. These symptoms are sudden hypoglycemia after a large number of eating litchi. They are called "litchi acute poisoning" or "litchi disease" in medicine. Because most of the monosaccharides in litchi are fructose, fructose can only be converted into glucose or glycogen for storage by a series of enzyme catalysis after being absorbed by the body, and then be oxidized and utilized by tissue cells. If too much litchi is eaten at one time, the blood sugar content will be much lower than normal, which will cause hypoglycemia. Therefore, litchi disease is an acute disease caused by hypoglycemia, which is manifested as early morning onset, often with sweating, limb cold, fatigue, diarrhea and other early symptoms, followed by sudden convulsions and coma. If there are symptoms of burning, you can eat some cold watermelon to relieve the fever.
What are the taboos of eating litchi?
1. 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, cause stomach pain and distention, and eating too much on an empty stomach will cause 'hypertonic coma' due to the sudden addition of excessive high sugar in the body.
2. 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.
3. 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.
Some water soaked litchi may contain toxic ingredients such as detergent, which may also cause dizziness.
How to eat litchi best to eat is not on fire?
1. Saltwater immersion
Peel off the shell of litchi, but do not peel off the white layer of film. After washing, soak in 30% salt water, soak for an hour, then take it out, peel off the white film and eat it. After soaking in salt water, the fire gas of litchi will be reduced to a large extent. If you want to keep litchi for a long time, you can peel off the white film directly, and then soak the pulp in light salt water for an hour, and then take it out and put it into the fresh-keeping box, and put it into the frozen layer of the refrigerator.
2. Eat the fruit film
When we peel the litchi shell, there is a thin white film on the flesh, which is a bit astringent. Generally, we peel it off, but if we want to prevent the fire, we suggest that we eat the film together, and then eat the white pedicle of the litchi in the bottom of the pulp, which can also prevent the fire.
3. Not more than 10 at a time
The average person should not eat more than 10 lychees each time, especially 3-4 for children, and should not overdo them; people with deficiency of Yin, dry heat and excessive damp heat should not eat lychees, and people with diabetes mellitus and prone to flatulence should also eat lychees carefully; people with acne, cold, acute inflammation and other symptoms should not eat lychees, which will aggravate the disease.
4. Enjoy 'dewdrop red litchi'
Dew litchi is a kind of fresh litchi plucked from the tree before dawn, before the dew goes away. These litchi absorb the sunshine of the day, and then pass through the temperature and cool of the night, so the heat has been reduced. It will not only taste more delicious, but also won't have the problem of burning.
5. Drink some salt water
6. Litchi growing in the East crown
Because litchi is a long sunshine fruit tree, it likes the sunshine in the west, and the fruit begins to mature in the west, so litchi in the West will be particularly sweet, but it will be more dry and fiery. Therefore, if you are afraid of getting angry, you can choose litchi growing on the East Branch, which is mild.
7. Frozen litchi
The fresh litchi picked can be filled in a container, sunk in a well or placed in a cold spring (water), and eaten overnight. It can not be burned and can turn dry air into yin.
