What are the foods that compete with Yangmei

Eating Yangmei with some foods may affect nutrient absorption or cause discomfort, mainly including high protein foods, high calcium foods, cold foods, acidic foods, warm foods, etc.

1. High protein foods

Yangmei is rich in tannic acid. When consumed with high protein foods such as milk and eggs, tannic acid easily binds with proteins to form precipitates, which may reduce protein absorption and increase gastrointestinal burden. It is recommended to consume high protein foods one hour after consuming Yangmei.

2. High Calcium Foods

Eating high calcium foods such as shrimp skin and tofu with Yangmei can cause tannic acid to combine with calcium ions to produce indigestible substances, which may lead to bloating. Children and those with weak digestive function should pay special attention to consuming separately.

III. Cold Food

Yangmei is warm in nature, and eating it with cold foods such as crabs and bitter gourd may cause gastrointestinal irritation, leading to abdominal pain and diarrhea. People with weak and cold constitution should avoid such combinations.

4. Acidic Foods

Eating acidic foods such as lemon and hawthorn together with bayberry can excessively stimulate gastric acid secretion, and patients with gastric ulcers may experience acid reflux symptoms. It is recommended to consume the two products at least 2 hours apart.

Fifth, Warm Foods

Eating warm foods such as lamb and lychee together with Yangmei may aggravate dryness and heat in the body, which can easily lead to dry mouth and tongue or symptoms of internal heat. People with yin deficiency constitution need to be cautious in their combination. Yangmei is rich in organic acids and anthocyanins, and consuming it alone can help promote digestion and antioxidant properties. It is recommended to soak in diluted salt water for 10 minutes to remove surface impurities, and the daily consumption should be controlled at 10-15 pills. People with gastrointestinal sensitivity should avoid eating on an empty stomach, and diabetes patients should pay attention to controlling their intake. If allergic reactions such as rash and vomiting occur after consumption, immediately stop eating and seek medical attention.
