Tea and 6 kinds of food can make good tea become poison

      In the Tang Dynasty, there was the word "tea medicine" (see "tea medicine" written by the kingdom in the 14th year of the Dali calendar in the Tang Dynasty). . It can be seen that tea is medicine, and it is contained in the book of medicine (called Materia Medica in ancient times). However, according to modern habits, the term "tea medicine" is limited to preparations containing tea leaves in the prescription. Because tea has many functions, it can prevent and cure many diseases in gynecology and pediatrics. Therefore, tea is not only medicine, but also as emphasized by Chen Zangqi in the Tang Dynasty: "Tea is the medicine for all diseases."

　　The small problems that should be paid attention to when drinking tea at ordinary times, because tea will be combined with some food, should pay attention to:

　　1. Tea and sugar:

　　tea is bitter and cold. The purpose of people drinking tea is to stimulate the digestive glands and promote digestion with the help of the bitter taste of tea fluid secretion to enhance digestive function. Then use the cold and cool properties of tea to achieve the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying.

　　For example, adding sugar to tea will inhibit this function. However, there are also remedies in ancient books that tea and sugar are used to treat diseases. It can be used as a dietary therapy. If you usually drink tea, it is not suitable to add sugar.

　　2. Tea and eggs:

　　boiled eggs in tea, the concentration of tea is very high, strong tea contains more tannins, tannins can make the protein in food into indigestible coagulation substances, affecting the body's absorption of protein and use.

　　Eggs are high-protein foods, so boiled eggs with tea should not be eaten.

　　3. Tea and wine:

　　Many people love to drink tea after drinking. They want to achieve the effects of moisturizing and relieving alcohol, digesting food, and regulating waterways, but this is not good for the kidneys.

　　Because drinking tea after drinking, theophylline has a diuretic effect. At this time, the acetaldehyde converted by alcohol has not been completely decomposed, that is, it enters the kidney due to the diuretic effect of theophylline. cause damage. As a result, symptoms such as kidney cold, impotence, frequent urination, and testicular pain are connected.

　　4. Tea and mutton:

　　Although eating mutton from time to time is very beneficial to the body, when eating mutton and drinking tea, the rich protein in mutton can "marriage" with the tannic acid in tea to form a substance called acid-exploring protein. This substance has a certain astringent effect on the intestines, which can weaken the peristalsis of the intestines, reduce the water in the stool, and easily cause constipation.

　　Therefore, it is not advisable to drink tea while eating mutton. It is not appropriate to drink tea immediately after eating mutton, and should wait 2-3 hours before drinking tea.

　　5. Tea and medicine:

　　The tannic acid in tea can react with certain medicines (such as ferrous sulfate, ferric ammonium citrate, berberine, etc.) to produce precipitation, which affects the absorption of medicines.

　　If you take sedatives (such as phenobarbital, diazepam, etc.) with tea, stimulants such as caffeine and theophylline in tea will offset or weaken the sedative effect of the drug.

　　Because there are many types of drugs, it is not easy to master, so they are all taken with warm water, which is beneficial and harmless.

　　6. Do not drink tea after eating dog meat

　　Dog meat is rich in protein, while tea contains more tannic acid. For example, drinking tea immediately after eating dog meat will combine the tannic acid in tea with the protein in dog meat into tannic acid protein. This substance has astringent effect, can weaken bowel movements, cause constipation, and passive absorption of toxic substances and carcinogens produced by metabolism is stagnant in the intestines, which is not conducive to health. Therefore, avoid drinking tea after eating dog meat.
