Can crucian carp and amaranth be eaten together?
Carassius auratus (crucian carp) and amaranth can generally be consumed together; however, moderation is advised.

For most people, crucian carp is rich in high-quality protein and various trace elements, while amaranth contains abundant vitamins and minerals. The nutritional components of the two complement each other, and moderate consumption together generally does not cause noticeable adverse reactions. If an individual has no history of allergy to crucian carp or amaranth and has a healthy digestive system, they can be consumed together.
Both amaranth and crucian carp contain high levels of calcium and iron. Consuming amaranth and crucian carp soup can help replenish blood and iron. Crucian carp has tender flesh, and amaranth is rich in fiber, both of which are easily digested and absorbed, making them especially suitable for children, the elderly, and pregnant women. Excessive intake of any food should be avoided; it is recommended that amaranth consumption not exceed 200 grams per day. It is advisable to use healthy cooking methods such as boiling soup or steaming, avoiding high-oil and high-salt methods like frying or sautéing.
In daily diets, attention should be paid to food diversity and balance, avoiding excessive consumption of any single ingredient in order to promote overall health.
