Crabs and persimmons are two popular foods this season. The Internet has been rumored that crabs and persimmons share the same food. Or fatal. Is this true?
Can crabs not eat with persimmons?
The rumors that "crabs and persimmons cannot be eaten together" have long been known. In the "Compendium of Materia Medica," there is a record: "All persimmons are eaten with crabs, making people diarrhea." One of the reasons for this theory is that crab meat is rich in protein, while persimmon contains a lot of tannic acid, and the protein will condense into a hard block when it encounters tannic acid. Deposited in the gastrointestinal tract will affect the digestive function and cause stones. Severe obstruction of the gastrointestinal tract, intestinal obstruction, accompanied by severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and sometimes even cause stomach bleeding. In addition, from the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, crabs and persimmons are cold foods. People with cold constitutions will have colder foods and are prone to cold abdominal pain or even diarrhea.
It can be seen from the above that whether or not crabs can be eaten with persimmons varies according to individual constitutions. Whether or not they form stomach stones depends on whether the gastrointestinal function is good or not. If the function is good and the peristalsis is normal, there will be no chance of coagulation. No stones will be formed. For people with insufficient gastric acid secretion, this type of eating is not appropriate. Pregnant women, the elderly, people with allergies, and people with biliary diseases should not eat too much. At the same time, people with cold constitutions can receive hot foods, and people with hot constitutions naturally have no problem eating cold foods. Therefore, people with different physiques may have different reactions to the same food.
