Yogurt and hawthorn can be eaten together

In life, many people like to eat hawthorn, which is also called mountain red. When we eat hawthorn, the best way to eat it is to choose candied haws. Candied haws made from hawthorn taste very delicious and sweet and sour. In addition, eating hawthorn regularly can help promote gastric motility and help us digest, which makes our appetite full. So can yogurt and hawthorn be eaten together?

1. You can eat together

Hawthorn does not contain any substances that are incompatible with yogurt, and hawthorn and yogurt will not react chemically to produce substances harmful to the human body, so hawthorn can be eaten with yogurt. But yogurt becomes sour earlier, and hawthorn is even more sour. So I don’t know if you can tolerate the sour taste of drinking yogurt while eating hawthorn. If you can, then there is no problem of course.

2. The sour taste is really strong

The sour taste of hawthorn is really strong, comparable to lemon, so hawthorn is very good at helping food and eliminating accumulation, but the sour taste of yogurt is also relatively strong. When eating hawthorn and yogurt at the same time, even if your tongue can bear it, your stomach can't. Food that is too sour is actually not conducive to digestion, because it will hinder the stomach from secreting gastric acid and cause digestion sluggishness. So most of the time, try not to eat hawthorn and yogurt at the same time.

3. Digestive aid mechanism

Hawthorn and yogurt both help digestion, but in fact, their digestion mechanisms are different. What are the differences?

(1) Yogurt helps digestion because it is rich in various probiotics. A large part of the peristalsis of the human intestine is due to the intestinal flora. The intestinal flora contains both beneficial bacteria and harmful bacteria. When the two floras are balanced, the intestinal peristalsis will be very regular. However, if the flora is disordered, the intestines will easily become sluggish. Therefore, drinking some yogurt can absorb beneficial bacteria and promote intestinal peristalsis.

(2) Hawthorn aids digestion because it is rich in various enzymes. These enzymes can promote the hydrolysis of fat and protein, thereby promoting the digestion of food. The digestive effect of hawthorn is mainly reflected in the stomach.
