What foods are incompatible with papaya

Papaya is a fruit from the south. Children in the north rarely eat it. However, there has always been a saying that papaya can help with breast enlargement, so it is favored by many female friends. Even if they can't eat fresh papaya, they like to drink some papaya-flavored milk tea, beverages, etc. Papaya is rich in vitamin C, which means it cannot be eaten all the time with some foods containing arsenic, as it will cause food poisoning. There are also some taboos as follows.

1. Papaya cannot be eaten with shrimp: eating it will cause abdominal pain and dizziness. Because shrimps contain arsenic (arsenic that is harmless to the human body), which will be converted into toxic arsenic when it meets the vitamin C in papaya, it must be avoided. Shrimp should not be eaten with foods rich in vitamin C.

2. Papaya cannot be eaten with fried food: Fried food is very common nowadays, and many people are accustomed to eating fruit after eating fried food. You have to be careful at this time. Papaya cannot be eaten with fried food, as it will cause stomach pain and diarrhea.

3. Papaya cannot be eaten with pumpkin: They are both melons, so why can't they be eaten together? Because pumpkin contains vitamin C-degrading enzymes, and papaya contains very high vitamin C, which is 48 times that of apples. Therefore, the decomposition enzyme in the pumpkin destroys the vitamin C in the papaya. Eating the papaya is equivalent to not eating it. The nutrients are not absorbed and are wasted, so they cannot be eaten together. However, the vitamin-degrading enzyme is destroyed after the pumpkin is cooked. Therefore, if you drink pumpkin porridge or something like that, there will be no loss of nutrients in papaya. It doesn't matter as long as the pumpkin is cooked.

4. Papaya cannot be eaten with leeks: because leeks are high in fiber, which can promote gastrointestinal motility, prevent constipation and assist in detoxification. However, leeks and papayas are incompatible. Eating papaya and leeks together will cause a sore throat, so it is best not to eat them at the same time.

5. Papaya cannot be eaten with carrots: Like pumpkin, carrots are also rich in vitamin C. Papaya contains very high vitamin C, which is 48 times that of apples. Therefore, the decomposition enzyme in the pumpkin destroys the vitamin C in the papaya. Eating the papaya is equivalent to not eating it. The nutrients are not absorbed and are wasted, so they cannot be eaten together. However, the vitamin-degrading enzyme is destroyed after the pumpkin is cooked. Therefore, if you drink pumpkin porridge or something like that, there will be no loss of nutrients in papaya. It doesn't matter as long as the pumpkin is cooked.

6. Papaya + Ginseng: Ginseng is a very tonic food, but eating it with papaya can cause physical discomfort, so it should be consumed with caution, and papaya should not be eaten with tetracycline or iron-supplements.
