Most tomatoes contain organic acids such as oxalic acid or oxalic acid analogues, which will combine with calcium in milk to form calcium oxalate or some organic acid chelates insoluble in gastric acid. Not only can the human body not get comprehensive nutrition, but it will also form turbid substances to some extent, which will damage the gastrointestinal tract.
Each ingredient has its own unique effect, but sometimes when inappropriate ingredients are eaten together, the effect may become an inducement, which is what we call food mutual grams.
20 18 March 15, /CCTV /3? 15 nights/meetings/1 Consumer Warning released: Food is a rumor. Crabs and tomatoes are in human gastric juice, and arsenic in crabs will not be converted into arsenic. Paying too much attention to cannibalism will affect the diversity of food we eat, and the rumor that food cannibalism is untenable.
Content introduction
"It is deaf to eat tofu and honey together; Potatoes and bananas eat freckles together; " Eating beef and brown sugar together will kill people. "All kinds of theories about eating food on the Internet are shocking. Can you believe it? But in fact, food is the oldest food rumor in the history of China.
The first rumor in history that food is incompatible with each other has not been verified, but it can be traced back to the traditional principle of "five elements interacting with each other". For example, it is recorded in synopsis of the golden chamber that "eating raw meat and drinking milk becomes a white worm". Eating raw meat and drinking milk at the same time will produce white worms in the body. At that time, it was thought that this was caused by the "mutual grams" of these two foods. However, it was later discovered that white worms actually refer to tapeworms, which exist in pork and beef. If the meat is not cooked, the eggs will enter the human small intestine and cause parasitic diseases, which has nothing to do with drinking milk or not, nor is it a problem of mutual treatment.
Around 2008, Lanzhou University and Harbin Medical University also refuted the statement that "food is incompatible with each other" through experiments.
However, some people do have gout, diarrhea and other symptoms after eating beer with seafood, crabs and persimmons. How do you explain this? Huang Shuze, former vice minister of health and secretary-general of Chinese Medical Association, wrote that unclean food, overeating and body allergy will lead to diarrhea, itchy skin and other adverse reactions in a few people. When the real factors are not noticed, people will regard accidental factors as disease factors.
It is by taking advantage of the public's blind spots of knowledge and concern for health that some people turn the rumor that food eats people into profit-making tools, and the most common ones are all kinds of related books. No matter online or physical bookstores, there are food books in bestsellers. Look at the content, the statement is roughly the same. A senior book editor revealed that many authors of health, food and self-help books on the market are professional book collectors with no professional background. The price of saving a book is generally around 5,000 yuan, and it can be "crash" in one month, and the content is also pieced together and copied. Food books are typical.
Fold and edit this paragraph to clarify the rumor.
Stewed Tofu with Spinach
Spinach and tofu, many people think they are similar, because tofu contains calcium, while spinach contains oxalic acid. Eating together will form calcium oxalate, which is easy to get stones.
In fact, this problem is very easy to solve. Blanching spinach in advance will reduce the oxalic acid content in spinach and reduce the generation of calcium oxalate, thus improving the utilization rate of calcium in tofu. Except spinach, such as rape, Chinese cabbage and amaranth with high oxalic acid content, it is recommended to blanch with clear water before eating to avoid the loss of minerals such as calcium in the body.
Cucumber and tomato
Some people say that eating cucumbers and tomatoes together will lose vitamin C, so you can't eat them together! We know that cucumber contains vitamin C decomposing enzyme, which will destroy VC, but it will destroy its own vitamin C first, instead of looking for the vitamin C of tomatoes. It makes no sense that the two are mutually exclusive!
Potatoes and eggs
When I was a child, I heard adults say that eating potatoes and eggs together would be toxic. Someone believes it! In fact, there is no scientific reason. Potato omelet made of eggs and potatoes is nutritious, healthy and delicious, which not only has high-quality protein provided by eggs, but also has delicate starch, vitamins and dietary fiber provided by potatoes. Foreigners often mix these two ingredients to make potato and egg cheesecake, which is very delicious.
Bananas and yogurt
Banana and yogurt can not only be eaten together, but also made into banana milkshake, which is rich in magnesium and calcium. Insisting on drinking is helpful for relaxing bowels, calming nerves and helping sleep.
Seafood and lemon
Seafood meets lemon or other foods containing vitamin C, which is equivalent to arsenic. The reason is that soft-shell foods such as shrimp contain high concentrations of pentapotassium arsenic compounds, which react with reducing agent vitamin C and become toxic trivalent arsenic, also known as arsenic.
In fact, the arsenic content in seafood is very low, and the arsenic content in each kilogram of seafood is less than 0. 1 mg, and arsenic can only be poisoned if it is ingested in dozens of mg. In this way, the intake of seafood must reach several kilograms or even dozens of kilograms at a time, a large number of fruits and vegetables must be eaten, and a 100% reaction must occur in the human body to produce arsenic.
Adding vitamin C to seafood is not only nontoxic, but also a perfect match. When cooking fish, shrimp, crab and other seafood, if the sterilization is not thorough, it will easily lead to food poisoning, and lemon contains organic acids such as citric acid, which has a certain bactericidal effect.
Crabs and persimmons
Rumor: crabs and persimmons are cool, and they will have pain and diarrhea after eating together.
Cracking: Persimmon contains tannic acid, while crab is rich in protein, and the two substances will interact. However, it is not clear whether there is a reaction in the human environment. This effect will not cause diarrhea, poisoning or other obvious discomfort. Other foods rich in protein, such as fish, shrimp, meat, eggs, etc., are similar to crabs, which are prone to spoilage and bacterial reproduction, leading to diarrhea or allergic symptoms, but this has nothing to do with persimmons.
