Because cucumber contains a vitamin C decomposing enzyme, it will destroy vitamin C in other vegetables. The more vitamin C in food, the more it is destroyed by the decomposing enzymes in cucumber.

The more serious the level. Tomatoes are typical vegetables rich in vitamin C. If we eat them together, the vitamin C we get from tomatoes will be destroyed by the catabolic enzymes in cucumbers, and it is basically impossible to supplement nutrition.

The result.

In addition, peppers, cauliflower, celery, bitter gourd and other vegetables also contain more vitamin C. It is best not to eat them with cucumbers. Vitamin C-decomposing enzymes can destroy vitamin C in other foods. Although it is harmless to human body, it will reduce the absorption of vitamin C. If you want to supplement vitamin C with pepper, celery, Chinese kale and bitter gourd, you'd better not eat it with cucumber.
