What to eat with seafood-Fan Zhihong _ original nutrition information
I went to a seafood forum today. Many friends ask: Will eating seafood with beer cause gout? Can seafood and fruit cause poisoning? If you eat seafood, what should you go with it? I'm afraid these problems are not the confusion of a few people, but also really bring trouble to many people. A beautiful woman told me that after eating seafood, she ate grapefruit and oranges, which caused severe abdominal pain and diarrhea and it took three days to recover. There are also a group of men who say that they just like eating seafood and drinking beer, but gout really happens, or blood uric acid is too high. Say beauty first. Eating seafood can easily cause diarrhea for two reasons: First, seafood often contains a small amount of microcystins, especially in summer and autumn. Aquatic products feed on algae, and the toxins in algae will be transferred to aquatic products. To prevent this situation, it is safer to eat less seafood produced in areas with good water quality and few poisonous algae. As for the situation that it contains a lot of arsenic and reacts with vitamin C after eating fruit, it should be said that it is relatively rare, because qualified seafood can't contain that much arsenic unless the aquaculture waters are seriously polluted. There is also a common reason, not food poisoning caused by toxins, but weakness of the stomach and intestines, which can't bear too much "cold" food. Chinese medicine believes that most shellfish, shrimps and crabs are cold, and eating more is easy to damage the function of the spleen and stomach. If you drink cold beer, cold drinks and cold fruits after eating seafood, it will make the situation worse, causing stomach pain, abdominal pain, diarrhea and weakness. Many people have heard that crabs can't be eaten with persimmons and pears, which is actually the case. However, these so-called pilgrims turned the law into a case. If your stomach is not so strong and your digestive ability is poor, then after eating seafood, besides persimmons and pears, you'd better not eat other cold fruits, such as grapefruit, sugarcane, watermelon, papaya and wax gourd, and avoid cold drinks and sweet drinks. At the same time, the amount of seafood eaten should also be strictly controlled, and it is better to eat less. In terms of collocation, this type of people should eat seafood with ginger and yellow wine that warm the stomach and help digestion, which is a traditional diet in China. Can also be combined with mustard, perilla leaves, curry seasoning and other seasonings to warm the gastrointestinal tract and promote digestion and absorption. It is very reasonable to use green mustard, perilla and shredded radish with sashimi in Japanese cuisine. Whether it is green mustard or perilla, it helps to eliminate the cold feeling and discomfort after meals. According to modern research, sulforaphane in radish is considered to be beneficial to gout. From the staple food, people who eat seafood and have loose bowels are suitable for drinking warm glutinous rice porridge or steamed brown rice. Hot porridge can not only make the gastrointestinal tract warm and comfortable, but also promote the excretion of uric acid. Nowadays, people always serve a lot of seafood at banquets, eat on an empty stomach and finally eat some rice, which is very unhealthy. If you drink some hot porridge first and then eat some seafood, you will feel much more comfortable. If you feel weak or painful in the stomach, drink hot ginger soup and then hot porridge to recuperate, and you will return to normal in a few hours. Men's worry about gout is not unreasonable. Although seafood itself will not directly lead to gout attacks, it is very dangerous to eat seafood and drink beer once a gout-prone constitution is formed. Seafood itself has a high purine content, and a lot of beer also brings considerable purine. In addition, alcohol itself will promote uric acid production, which can be said to be worse. Who is prone to gout? Although the cause is not fully understood, the patient's state can also be known. First, people are relatively fat, or although they don't look fat, they have high body fat content and belong to a relatively noisy type; Second, lack of exercise, soft muscles, poor physique and insufficient yang; Third, I love drinking and eating high-protein food. All three aspects are accounted for, so be careful when eating seafood. Chinese medicine believes that excessive consumption of seafood, beer and cold drinks will harm the spleen and stomach and cause gout. Western nutrition research has found that besides beer, drinking a lot of sweet drinks will also increase the risk of gout. This is because sweet drinks are rich in sucrose (glucose+fructose) or fructose, and fructose is a factor that promotes the formation of uric acid. Even pure fruit juice may contain a lot of fructose. Watermelon, grapes and other fruits are also rich in fructose, and eating too much is not conducive to controlling uric acid. Recently, there has been a lot of research progress on the influence of drinking sweet drinks and fruit juice on gout. I will tell you in detail in my future blog post. On the contrary, eating staple food is beneficial and harmless, because starchy foods will promote the excretion of uric acid, especially coarse grains and potatoes rich in potassium, which is beneficial to gout patients. People think that eating seafood is easy to digest, because it is very tender in protein, and it seems that it doesn't need much work from the stomach, but it is not. Protein is here, he needs to secrete gastric acid and pepsin, and his pancreas needs to work overtime to produce more trypsin. Generally speaking, protein's digestion is more difficult than carbohydrate, and its later metabolism is more troublesome, which will cause considerable burden to the liver and kidneys. Because seafood contains a high proportion of protein, and the amount eaten is often relatively large, a large amount of protein needs the help of the liver to become urea, and then it needs to be excreted, and a large amount of uric acid also needs to be excreted. These are the work of the kidney. Plus beer, drinks, etc. The kidney is harder. People often feel tired after eating seafood. This is because the liver works too hard. I often feel that my urination is increasing because my kidneys are working overtime. Because you don't eat staple food, and seafood has high water content and low energy content, your stomach will soon become empty and your body will lack energy. At this time, it is inevitable to decompose fat and form ketone bodies, and the liver and kidneys will continue to work overtime ... So, take it easy to eat seafood and don't always challenge the working potential of your internal organs. The following are some health warnings for eating seafood: 1 Eat seafood with reliable sources to avoid the danger of food poisoning and pollution enrichment. Seafood should not be eaten too much at a time, and it is advisable to eat 100g each time. 3 it is not advisable to eat a lot of seafood on an empty stomach, or mainly seafood, and should be accompanied by staple food and cooked food. Don't eat seafood with beer, sweet drinks and fruit juice, but with hot porridge and hot soup. People with poor gastrointestinal function are suitable to cooperate with spices that warm the stomach and dispel cold, such as ginger, mustard, green mustard, curry, perilla leaves, cinnamon and so on. However, patients with gout should not use irritating spices such as pepper and pepper.
