Snow pear can be boiled together with loquat fruit. The combination of the two has the effect of moistening the lung, relieving cough, promoting fluid and quenching thirst. Snow pear is rich in vitamin C and dietary fiber, and loquat fruit contains arbutin and organic acid, which is suitable for relieving dry heat in autumn and winter or throat discomfort.
When boiling snow pear and loquat fruits, it is recommended to select the fruits with moderate maturity, peel and remove the seeds, cut them into pieces, add proper amount of water to boil, and then turn to low heat to stew for 20 minutes. A small amount of rock sugar or honey can be added to flavor according to personal taste, but diabetes patients should avoid adding sugar. This drink has a certain auxiliary effect on relieving dry cough and sore throat, especially suitable for people with late stage colds or chronic pharyngitis.
Loquat kernels contain trace amounts of cyanogenic glycosides. Before boiling, the kernels should be thoroughly removed to avoid prolonged high-temperature boiling that may cause component release. People with weak constitution or spleen and stomach should not drink excessively, as it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. If allergic reactions such as diarrhea or skin itching occur after drinking, stop immediately and seek medical attention.
When drinking snow pear loquat water daily, it is recommended not to exceed three times a week, about 200 ml each time. Paired with Tremella fuciformis or Lily, it can enhance the nourishing effect, but should not be eaten with cold foods such as crabs. Special populations such as pregnant women and infants need to adjust their food intake under the guidance of a doctor. When cooking, the stewing time can be extended to 30 minutes to reduce the coolness of the ingredients.
