What are the symptoms of getting angry after eating durian?

Durian is a food with extremely high nutritional value. Although it doesn’t smell particularly pleasant, it tastes very delicious. However, some people will experience symptoms of getting angry due to it. The most obvious manifestations are dry mouth and tongue, oral ulcers, sore throat, constipation, etc. In this case, you can eat a few mangosteens, or some mung bean paste, Poria cocos paste, etc., which have a good effect of reducing fire.

1. Will eating too much durian cause internal heat?

Eating too much durian will cause you to get a sore throat.

Durian is a typical hot fruit in traditional Chinese medicine. It is hot and stagnant in nature. Eating too much durian at one time will cause excessive heat in the body, which will cause internal inflammation and lead to symptoms such as dry mouth and tongue, constipation, oral ulcers, and sore throat.

Although durian is good, you should not eat too much. There is a saying in Guangdong: "One durian and three chickens". Professor Zhou Yingchun, head of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Southern Medical University Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, said that Chinese medicine believes that durian is hot and stagnant in nature and is a typical tropical fruit. If you eat too much durian at one time, it may cause the body's internal heat to rise, leading to symptoms of heat such as dry mouth, constipation, oral ulcers, and sore throat. People who are prone to getting angry easily and often have the above symptoms, and who have a red tongue and yellow tongue coating, should eat less durian.

2. The reason why durian causes heat

1. Durian is a tropical fruit with a strong heaty flavor. Eating it will increase the heat in the human body and cause a sore throat.

2. Durian contains a lot of energy. Every 100g of durian contains 147 kcal of energy, which is much higher than the energy contained in lychee, apple, pear, peach and other fruits. Eating a large amount of it will cause a large amount of energy to accumulate in the body, which is also an important factor causing getting angry.

3. What to do if you get angry after eating durian

1. After eating durian and getting a sore throat, you can eat a few mangosteens. Because mangosteen is cold in nature, it can suppress the heat caused by eating durian, regulate the balance in the human body and achieve the effect of neutralization, which is the so-called heat-clearing and fire-removing. In Thailand, where durian is produced in abundance, people often eat mangosteen together with durian to achieve the effect of reducing fire.

2. After getting a sore throat from eating durian, you can fry the durian shell in salt water and drink it, which can also achieve the effect of clearing heat. In addition, it is worth mentioning that durian shell itself is also a treasure and can be used as a good ingredient for making soup, such as durian shell chicken soup and durian shell corn and pork ribs soup. By adding it, these soups also have the effect of clearing away heat and relieving fire.

3. After getting a sore throat after eating durian, take about one to two taels of fresh lychee peel, boil it in water and drink it, which can also achieve the effect of clearing heat. This is not only effective for the internal heat caused by eating durian, but also has a relieving effect on the internal heat caused by eating lychees.

4. After eating durian and getting a sore throat, eating mung beans can effectively reduce the heat. Boil the mung beans into soup, or mash them into mung bean paste for drinking. After my own testing, the effect of reducing heat seems to be slightly more obvious after taking mung bean paste.

5. If you get a sore throat after eating durian, you can eat tortoise jelly to reduce the heat. Guilinggao is a relatively good food for clearing away heat and reducing internal heat. It is best to eat it with some healthy cold fruits, which can have a more direct and effective effect in reducing internal heat.

6. After getting a sore throat after eating durian, you can drink chrysanthemum and honeysuckle tea. It is best to add some rock sugar for a better effect in removing heat.

7. After getting a sore throat after eating durian, you can take a small amount of honey and make honey tea with warm water. This is also a good way to clear away heat and reduce fire.

8. After getting a sore throat after eating durian, you can eat some cold fruits, such as persimmons, olives, grapes, etc. You can also cook with foods that are good at clearing heat and reducing fire, such as carrots, bitter gourd, tomatoes, etc. They are healthy, reduce fire, and taste good.
