Side effects of lotus powder

Lotus powder is the most precious variety of honey powder. It is mainly produced in the Jiangnan area. It is a pollution-free, pure natural health product. However, because many people don’t know much about lotus powder, they always think it is harmful and has no benefits. First of all, lotus powder may cause allergies, but it only affects very individual constitutions. Generally, you can test it before using it to see what the specific problem is.

Does lotus powder have side effects? What are the side effects?

1. Lotus powder is a natural health food. Under normal circumstances, it has no side effects, but there are many taboos when consuming it. If consumed improperly, the side effects of lotus powder will be revealed. The most important point is that lotus powder cannot be taken with boiling water, but only with warm water below 50 degrees, otherwise the active ingredients in it will be lost in large quantities.

2. Lotus pollen can cause allergic reactions in people, which is also its biggest side effect. Although lotus pollen is safe and non-toxic, its main source is plant pollen. Some people are allergic to pollen and will also experience allergic symptoms when consuming lotus pollen. At this time, you can reduce the amount of consumption and let the body adapt slowly, but people with severe allergies should not continue to consume it.

3. The smell of lotus powder is somewhat unique. Some people cannot accept it when they first eat it, and some people will have stomach pain symptoms. This is caused by people's stomachs and intestines not accepting the lotus powder. At this time, you can change the time of eating lotus powder to after meals and reduce the amount of consumption appropriately. After the stomach pain symptoms disappear, you can restore its consumption to normal.

4. Lotus powder should not be consumed at the same time as soy products and some seafood, otherwise some symptoms of food poisoning will appear, with stomach pain and diarrhea being the most common. In addition, lotus powder contains a small amount of hormones and mild toxicity, so it cannot be given to infants under three weeks old.
