Speaking of hawthorn, is everyone drooling and immediately think of its sweet and sour taste? Hawthorn is not only sweet and sour, but also has the functions of invigorating spleen, stimulating appetite, promoting digestion and losing weight. In addition, hawthorn can also prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases, improve appetite, improve body resistance and enhance immunity. Although hawthorn has many functions, it is not without any taboos. The following people are not suitable for eating hawthorn.

1, patients with gastric diseases should eat carefully.

Hawthorn has a strong digestive function. People suffering from gastritis, gastric ulcer and hypersecretion of gastric acid should use hawthorn and hawthorn tea with caution, which will easily stimulate hypersecretion of gastric acid and aggravate the symptoms of gastric ulcer. In addition, hawthorn is appetizing but easy to cause stones, because the content of pectin and tannic acid in hawthorn is high, and it is easy to condense into water-insoluble sediment after contact with gastric acid, which will bond with food residues to form gastrolith, which can cause gastric ulcer, gastric bleeding, and even gastric wall necrosis and perforation, which will aggravate gastric diseases.

2. People with diabetes should eat carefully.

It is best for diabetics not to eat hawthorn products to avoid blood sugar fluctuation and affect their health. Because now many of us like to eat hawthorn food, such as Sugar-Coated Berry, hawthorn slices, hawthorn strips, hawthorn fruit moutan, hawthorn candied snowballs and so on. A lot of sugar will be added to adjust the sour taste of hawthorn itself. After the special hawthorn snack, the taste is better and more delicious, and people can't help eating a lot.

Children should eat less hawthorn.

Healthy people should also eat hawthorn in moderation, not to mention children, who are in the period of changing their teeth. Eating hawthorn or hawthorn slices and hawthorn cakes for a long time is not good for tooth growth. In addition, hawthorn slices and peony bark contain a lot of sugar. If children eat too much, their blood sugar will remain at a high level, and they will not feel hungry, which will affect their eating. Long-term consumption in large quantities can lead to malnutrition and anemia.

4, pregnant women are not easy to eat in the early stage.

Hawthorn is sweet and sour, which many pregnant women like to eat, but it has the effect of breaking blood and removing blood stasis, which will stimulate uterine contraction and easily lead to abortion, especially for people with a history of habitual abortion, so as to avoid miscarriage.

So for the sake of health, these people had better eat less hawthorn or avoid eating hawthorn. Others should also eat hawthorn in moderation and try not to eat hawthorn on an empty stomach.
