Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Shen Yonghua
When consuming green soybeans, the following combinations should be avoided:
1. Protein-rich meats: such as beef, pork, etc. Although protein is an essential nutrient for the human body, excessive intake of protein combined with certain components in green soybeans may increase the burden on the kidneys and be detrimental to health.
2. Seafood: such as shrimp, crab, etc. Seafood ingredients often contain abundant protein, which may affect nutrient absorption and digestion when consumed with green soybeans. Moreover, cold-natured foods like crab may exacerbate internal cold-dampness and particularly harm individuals with spleen and stomach deficiency-cold.
3. Certain vegetables and fruits: such as bamboo shoots and persimmons. The coarse fiber in bamboo shoots may form indigestible substances with certain components in green soybeans; while the tannic acid in persimmons may combine with proteins in green soybeans to form precipitates, affecting health.
4. Soy products: such as tofu. Although soy products themselves are nutrient-rich foods, consuming them together with green soybeans may increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort.
At the same time, balanced diets and diverse food choices are key to maintaining good health.
