Can you eat watermelon after eating Chinese bayberry?
It is safe to eat watermelon after consuming waxberries, but the intake of both should be reasonably controlled.
Waxberries contain certain organic acids that can stimulate the stomach, promoting increased gastric acid secretion and accelerating food digestion, thereby enhancing appetite. Watermelons are rich in carotene, which helps regulate lens function and may help prevent night blindness. Therefore, moderate consumption of waxberries and watermelon contributes to overall health. Since the components of waxberries and watermelon do not interact negatively, it is perfectly fine to eat watermelon after eating waxberries.
However, excessive consumption of either waxberries or watermelon should be avoided, as this may overly stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and lead to digestive discomfort, such as abdominal pain and diarrhea. In such cases, applying a warm compress may help improve local circulation and alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms. If symptoms are severe, individuals should seek timely medical attention for appropriate treatment to prevent significant impacts on their health and quality of life.
