Some precautions for brain-boosting porridge

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."

Walnut: Walnut cannot be eaten together with pheasant meat, and patients with pneumonia, bronchiectasis, etc. should not eat it.

Walnuts should not be eaten with alcohol. According to the Kaibao Materia Medica by Ma Zhi of the Song Dynasty, "Drinking alcohol and eating walnuts can cause hemoptysis." This may be because walnuts are hot in nature, and eating too much of them will cause phlegm and fire, while white wine is also sweet, spicy and hot. Eating the two together can easily cause blood heat. Especially for people with chronic hemoptysis, it is more taboo. For example, patients with bronchiectasis and tuberculosis can cause hemoptysis by drinking white wine, and not eating it with walnuts can also cause illness.
