1. Avoid eating crab and persimmon together
When crabs are fat, persimmons are ripe. Be careful not to eat these two things at the same time.
Because the tannic acid and other ingredients in persimmons may cause the crab meat protein to coagulate, the coagulated substance will ferment and rot if it stays in the intestines for a long time, causing reactions such as vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and may also cause stones.
2. Eat less melons and fruits
Melon fruits are mostly yin and cold in nature. Eating too much will damage the spleen and stomach, so you should eat less at this time.
