Can banana and watermelon be eaten together

Nowadays, many people pay great attention to nutrition and health and like to squeeze their own juice. In addition to eating, people also eat fruits every day. Nowadays, there are really all kinds of fruits in supermarkets. There is nothing you can't buy, only unexpected ones. However, people still like to eat some fruits that are very convenient to buy, such as apples, bananas, watermelons, etc. Can watermelons be eaten together with bananas?

Watermelon and banana cannot be eaten together.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine nutrition, fruits can be divided into two categories: cold and hot. Usually, some people with high "fire energy" have a vigorous metabolism, sweat a lot, and are prone to oral ulcers or constipation. Eating cold fruits regularly can help reduce fire and detoxify, but eating too much cold fruits can lead to qi deficiency and spleen and stomach discomfort. Therefore, patients with qi deficiency and weak constitution should be more cautious when eating cold fruits.

Both watermelon and banana are cold fruits. It is best not to eat bananas with watermelon, as it will cause diarrhea.

Therefore, people with kidney problems should eat less of them, as they will increase the burden on the kidneys and aggravate the symptoms. Also, because the kidney's ability to excrete potassium decreases, it can easily cause hyperkalemia.
