The main foods that can't be eaten with sweet potatoes are sweets and persimmons.
1, sweet potatoes can't be eaten with sweets.
Sweet potato has a high sugar content. Eating on an empty stomach will produce a lot of stomach acid. When there is too much gastric acid, it will stimulate the gastric mucosa and cause gastric acid reflux, which makes people feel heartache.
2. Sweet potato can't be eaten with persimmon.
According to experts from China Nutrition Association, sweet potato and persimmon should not be eaten at the same time in a short time. If there is a lot of food, they should be separated for at least five hours. Because if eaten at the same time, the sugar in sweet potato will ferment in the stomach, which will increase the secretion of gastric acid and precipitate and condense with tannin and pectin in persimmon to produce lumps. When the amount is serious, it can cause gastrointestinal bleeding or gastric ulcer. If you feel upset in the stomach, you must go to the hospital for gastroscopy to see if there is stomach bleeding or gastric ulcer.
3, sweet potatoes should not be eaten with skin.
It is best not to eat baked sweet potato with skin, because sweet potato skin contains more alkaloids, and eating too much will lead to gastrointestinal discomfort. Especially the sweet potato skin with black spots is inedible and can cause poisoning.
4. People with gastric ulcer and bloating should not eat sweet potatoes.
Sweet potato sugar will produce a lot of gastric acid in the stomach, increasing the pressure in the stomach. For people with bad stomach, it will stimulate the ulcer surface or gastric mucosa, leading to stomach discomfort.
5. Sweet potatoes should not be eaten on an empty stomach.
Eating sweet potato on an empty stomach has a great chance of acid reflux and heartburn, because sweet potato itself contains relatively high carbohydrates and has a certain sweetness, which increases the possibility of reflux.
6. Sweet potatoes should not be eaten more.
Sweet potato also contains an oxidase, which will produce a large amount of carbon dioxide gas in the gastrointestinal tract, which is easy to cause symptoms such as bloating and burping.
