Introduction
Long-term consumption of cucumber seeds and lettuce seed powder can lead to gastrointestinal disorders and cause certain harm to the body. Prolonged intake of cucumber seeds may easily result in excessive calcium intake. When the body cannot absorb the excess calcium, it may circulate freely within the system, potentially leading to kidney stones. Moreover, consuming large amounts of cucumber seeds can increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, and in severe cases, cause gastrointestinal diseases.

Under normal circumstances, long-term consumption of cucumber seeds and lettuce seed powder may lead to gastrointestinal diseases and cause certain harm to the body.

Cucumber seeds are considered a cold-natured food. They contain various nutrients such as amino acids, carotene, fructose, and vitamins. Long-term consumption of cucumber seeds can easily result in excessive calcium intake. When the body cannot absorb all the calcium, it may remain free in the system, potentially leading to kidney stones. Moreover, consuming large amounts of cucumber seeds increases the burden on the digestive system and may seriously cause gastrointestinal disorders.

Lettuce seed powder is also regarded as a cold-natured food. It is rich in various nutrients and provides numerous trace elements essential for the human body. However, due to its overall cold nature, individuals with stomach pain should pay attention to their dietary habits and limit intake of cold-natured foods, as consumption may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and trigger symptoms such as stomachache and diarrhea. Additionally, the unique nutritional components in lettuce seed powder may significantly increase cholesterol levels in the body, potentially affecting normal growth and development.
