Lotus root is one of the vegetables consumed daily and is rich in many vitamins and amino acids as well as fiber, calcium, phosphorus, etc. It is nutritious and has certain health benefits when consumed, and it contains more starch and has a certain satiety. There is no research to confirm that lotus root cannot be consumed with six other foods. However, from the perspective of Chinese medicine, it is believed that lotus root is also a Chinese herbal medicine, which is cold and sweet in nature, and has the function of clearing heat and generating fluid, stopping bleeding and dispersing blood stasis. Therefore, from the perspective of Chinese medicine, for some people who have a cold constitution or are already cold, lotus root should not be consumed together with other foods that are cold in nature, otherwise it may increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, which may easily lead to abdominal pain, bloating and diarrhea. Common cold foods include various vegetables, fruits and seafood, such as wild rice, rhizome, lily, watermelon, pear, crab, shellfish and so on. When consuming lotus root in daily life, it can generally be combined with other ingredients more freely and in various ways, such as cold, fried or stewed, while people in poor health often need to pay more attention to their diet and should consult a doctor when they are ill.
