5 types of diseases should limit eating garlic
Garlic is a healthy spice but that doesn't mean all of it is edible.
People with eye diseases
The ancients said, “Garlic can cure a hundred diseases except for eye damage.” Long-term consumption of garlic is harmful to the eyes. Garlic has the most pungent taste, and can penetrate into every corner, making it easy to damage the eyes. Therefore, people with eye diseases should be careful not to eat too much garlic when eating garlic. During the treatment process, they must avoid spicy foods.
People with weak constitution and heat
The ancients believed that eating too much garlic would consume human energy, and also consume blood. “Ben Cao Tung Tan” recorded that “garlic is pungent, hot, toxic, produces phlegm and heat, disperses energy and consumes blood. People with weak constitutions and heat should not let it touch their lips”. Therefore, people with poor constitutions and weak blood and energy should pay attention.
People with liver disease
Many people use the method of eating garlic to prevent hepatitis, and some people still eat garlic every day after getting liver disease. This is not true. The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that garlic "eats a lot of damage to the liver and eyes". Garlic is hot and can help heat up. Garlic is pungent and has strong stimulating properties. People with hot livers will get hotter if they eat garlic. Over time, it will naturally cause damage.
People with weak spleen, diarrhea
The stimulating properties of raw garlic are very strong, and eating it daily can promote digestion. However, if a person with bacterial enteritis continues to eat garlic when having diarrhea, the strong stimulation will cause the intestinal mucosa to become congested. The swelling will become more severe, and the discharge will make the condition worse.
Seriously ill people should be careful when eating.
Garlic is a plant that causes disease, and so-called plant causes disease, which is especially easy to cause a certain disease or aggravate a previously developed disease. Eating spicy foods such as garlic and chili peppers, for people with serious illnesses or people who are taking medication, can cause very obvious side effects. Not only can it cause the old illness to relapse, but it can also make the medication ineffective, or cause the medication to produce a continuous reaction, affecting the body's health.
