Tips

Food incompatibility:

Japonica rice: Tang Dynasty Meng Shen said: "Japonica rice cannot be eaten with horse meat, as it will cause tumors. It cannot be eaten with Xanthium sibiricum, as it will cause sudden heart pain."

Wang Yuying of the Qing Dynasty: "Although fried rice is fragrant, it is dry and helps to stimulate fire. People who are not suffering from cold and diarrhea should avoid it."

Donkey hide gelatin: Donkey hide gelatin is afraid of rhubarb. Red dates have an additional advantage, which is that they can harmonize various medicines. When used in combination with other Chinese medicines, red dates can alleviate the strength and toxicity of the medicines and reduce the bitterness of the medicines. For example, if red dates are added to Guizhi Decoction for treating colds, the side effect of sweating can be reduced. It can be seen that Chinese medicines with strong or side effects can be neutralized and alleviated by adding red dates.

Nutritional value of longan, donkey-hide gelatin and red dates porridge

Although red dates are beneficial, they are not suitable for everyone. For example, people with coughs and phlegm should not eat them. In addition, red dates can trap dampness, so people with dampness and abdominal distension, such as those who often feel tired or have thick moss, should eat less, otherwise the symptoms of dampness will be aggravated. Children with cavities should not eat too many red dates.
