May I ask if eating longan will cause internal heat

Moderate consumption of longan generally does not cause internal heat, while excessive consumption may lead to discomfort symptoms such as dry mouth and tongue. Longan has a warm nature and is rich in glucose, vitamins, and minerals, making it suitable for people with insufficient qi and blood. However, those with a constitution that is too hot or has yin deficiency and excessive fire should control their intake. Longan, as a warm and nourishing fruit, has a high sugar content. Eating a small amount can help improve problems such as anemia and insomnia. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it has the effects of nourishing the heart and spleen, nourishing blood and calming the mind, and has a regulating effect on those with spleen and stomach deficiency or postpartum body deficiency. Modern nutritional analysis shows that longan contains minerals such as iron and potassium, as well as B vitamins, which can alleviate fatigue, but its high sugar content may exacerbate dampness and heat in the body. Some people may experience symptoms such as sore throat and constipation after consuming SEP, which are closely related to their personal constitution and intake. Patients with diabetes, acne, and cold and fever should avoid eating to avoid aggravating symptoms. When consumed, it can be paired with cool foods such as chrysanthemum tea or pears to neutralize warmth. It is recommended to consume no more than 15-20 pills per day and avoid eating on an empty stomach.

Daily diet should pay attention to physical identification. People with damp heat constitution can choose foods such as Job's tears and winter melon to balance their internal environment. When obvious symptoms of internal heat appear, it is recommended to temporarily stop consuming longan, drink more water, and increase the intake of green leafy vegetables. If there is a long-term problem of yin deficiency and excessive fire, it is recommended to consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for physical conditioning to avoid consuming large amounts of warm and nourishing ingredients that can affect health balance.
