Eating in ancient books.

According to ancient history books, the five elements coexist, and there are different opinions on whether there is compatibility between foods. The five elements are divided into gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which contain each other. Is there a principle of mutual restraint between the foods we eat every day? Zhang Zhongjing, a famous physician in the Eastern Han Dynasty, once recorded in his book Synopsis of the Golden Chamber that 48 kinds of foods should not be eaten together, otherwise it would do harm to people's stomach and even their bodies.

Chinese medicine pays more attention to diet therapy. Put forward the idea that food should be eaten together. Chinese medicine adopts mild methods and herbs in treating diseases, and now many people also begin to pay attention to health preservation, such as adding Lycium barbarum to water when soaking feet, drinking water soaked in chrysanthemum tea and so on. Since Chinese medicine has medical records, we should attach importance to them. There is a good saying, "I'd rather believe it, but I can't believe it."

At present, there have been no cases of food poisoning or even death in the field of science and technology. Western medicine is the representative of advanced technology. Many people believe in technology and science, so they think there is nothing to eat. Indeed, from the perspective of western medicine, there is no scientific basis or real case to prove the existence of cannibalism, so the conclusion is that there is no cannibalism between foods.

We should still pay attention to our diet. Although western medicine has not proved that there is mutual restraint between foods, from the perspective of Chinese medicine, this situation is real. What we can do is to pay more attention to diet, and don't eat a variety of foods indiscriminately to prevent food poisoning from affecting our lives. We can also check online which foods can't be mixed together and pay more attention to them in our future diet.
