Tips for making sweet eight-treasure porridge

Food incompatibility:

Adzuki beans: Carp and red beans can both be cooked together, as they can promote diuresis and reduce swelling. They are very effective in treating edema caused by nephritis. However, precisely because their diuretic function is so strong, normal people should avoid eating them at the same time, and try to eat them a few hours apart. Whether they can be eaten together depends on different people's physical constitutions.

Raisins: When taking spironolactone, triamterene and potassium supplements, it is not advisable to eat raisins and other foods high in potassium at the same time, otherwise it is easy to cause hyperkalemia, gastrointestinal cramps, abdominal distension, diarrhea and arrhythmia.

Peanut kernels (raw): For those with weak stomachs, peanuts should not be eaten with cucumbers and crabs, otherwise it will easily cause diarrhea.
