🚂 When it comes to the “Tianfu”, many people’s first thought is the train, the food, and the scenery along the way. But today, we are not talking about the itinerary; let’s talk about a common dish on the dining table—red choy sum.
It has a crisp, tender texture with a slight sweetness, and is a frequent guest in many train dining cars and Xinjiang restaurants. However, although red choy sum is good, there are also some pairing and dietary contraindications to note. Below is a detailed explanation for you.
🥬 Red choy sum:A nutrient-rich “representative of leafy greens”
Red choy sum, also known as red flowering stalk, is a cruciferous vegetable with high nutritional value:
Low in calories and highly nutritious:The recommended calories per 100 grams are about 20-30 kcal. It is rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium, calcium, etc., which help with antioxidant effects, promote intestinal peristalsis, and maintain stable blood pressure.
Traditional Chinese medicine properties:It is generally believed to be sweet with a slight bitterness and cool in nature, with effects such as clearing heat and detoxifying, and moistening the intestines to relieve constipation. It is suitable for people who are prone to “internal heat” and dry mouth.
🤔 What foods should not be eaten with red choy sum?
According to existing nutritional information, the following types of food require extra attention when eaten with red choy sum:
1. High-calcium soy products (such as tofu and soy milk)
The oxalic acid in red choy sum may combine with the calcium in tofu to form calcium oxalate, which is difficult to absorb, affecting the calcium absorption rate. Occasional consumption together is fine, but it is not recommended as a fixed pairing over the long term or in large amounts.
2. Some cold-natured foods (such as crab, cucumber, and persimmon)
🚂 When it comes to the “Tianfu”, many people’s first thought is the train, the food, and the scenery along the way. But today, we are not talking about the itinerary; let’s talk about a common dish on the dining table—red choy sum.Red choy sum itself is cool in nature. If eaten in large amounts together with also cold-natured foods such as crab, cucumber, and persimmon, it may increase the burden on the stomach and intestines and easily cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, especially for those with weak and cold spleen and stomach. It is recommended to stagger the eating times.
3. Certain fruits (such as papaya)
Some information suggests that eating red choy sum with papaya may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort such as diarrhea. If your stomach and intestines are sensitive, it is recommended to avoid eating large amounts of them in the same meal.
4. High-protein seafood (such as large shrimp)
Red choy sum is rich in dietary fiber, while large shrimp is a high-protein food. Eating the two together will increase the digestive burden on the stomach and intestines. If eaten in large amounts, it may cause bloating, indigestion, and other problems.
5. Certain medications (such as cardiac glycosides and some antibacterial drugs)
Components in red choy sum may affect cardiac glycoside drugs such as digoxin, or interact with some antibacterial drugs such as amoxicillin, interfering with drug efficacy. During medication, it is recommended to appropriately separate the times of eating fiber-rich vegetables from taking medication, and consult a doctor or pharmacist.
6. Certain vegetables (such as Chinese yam and pumpkin)
Some claims say that eating red choy sum with Chinese yam affects nutrient absorption, and eating it with pumpkin reduces nutritional value. Such effects are usually minor, and occasional consumption together does not require excessive worry; just pay attention to a balanced diet.
⚠ ️ Which groups of people need to eat red choy sum with caution?
In addition to pairing issues, some people also need to pay attention when eating red choy sum:
People with weak and cold spleen and stomach or sensitive stomach and intestines:Red choy sum is cool in nature. People who are prone to diarrhea or have cold hands and feet should eat it in moderation, preferably cooked, and can pair it with warm-natured seasonings such as ginger and garlic.
It has a crisp, tender texture with a slight sweetness, and is a frequent guest in many train dining cars and Xinjiang restaurants. However, although red choy sum is good, there are also some pairing and dietary contraindications to note. Below is a detailed explanation for you.Patients with digestive tract diseases such as gastritis and gastric ulcers:It is recommended to eat small amounts and cooked, to avoid aggravating gastrointestinal irritation.
Pregnant and breastfeeding women:It can be eaten in moderation to supplement vitamins and dietary fiber, but because it is cool in nature, it should not be consumed excessively to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.
People with renal insufficiency:Red choy sum contains potassium. People with poor kidney function need to control their intake under the guidance of a doctor or dietitian.
People who need to control fiber intake, such as those with hyperthyroidism:Red choy sum is rich in dietary fiber. Such people should change their consumption amount according to medical advice.
💡 Tips for eating red choy sum
1. Cooking method: It is recommended to stir-fry quickly over high heat or blanch and then serve as a cold dish, to reduce nutrient loss and improve texture. Blanching can also reduce its slight bitterness.
2. Amount to eat: For ordinary healthy people, 50-200 grams per meal is appropriate. Avoid long-term, excessive consumption of a single food.
3. Handling bitterness: A slight bitterness is normal. If the bitterness is too strong, you can remove the old stems, or use methods such as blanching or quick stir-frying.
