Is ginger a food that causes allergies?

Ginger is a very common food in our daily life. Ginger is indispensable for ordinary cooking. Ginger can be used as a seasoning, and it can remove some abnormalities and make food more delicious. Ginger can also play a bactericidal role. It can be said that it has many benefits to the body. Many people think that ginger is an allergic food, so they dare not eat it. Let us discuss whether ginger is an allergic food.

What is hair

We often hear Chinese medicine practitioners say not to eat irritating foods. So what are irritating foods? Rigid foods refer to foods that are nutritious and can increase the body's yang energy, such as fish, shrimp, poultry, meat, spicy, greasy and other foods. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, irritating foods can increase the body's yang energy and lead to the onset of disease, so irritating foods can also be defined as foods that should not be eaten when one is sick or taking medication.

Generally speaking, irritating foods can be divided into six categories: those that cause fever, those that cause dampness, those that cause cold and accumulation, those that cause stagnation, those that cause blood movement, and those that cause wind.

Wet things

Generally speaking, sweet, sticky and soft foods are mostly damp-inducing foods. This kind of food can produce phlegm, and phlegm can retain dampness and hurt the spleen and stomach. Here, when the food is "inducing in nature", it can cause dampness and heat, accumulate turbidity and hinder the spleen; when the food is "edible", it can nourish the body, such as glutinous rice, maltose, honey, lotus root, rock sugar, fermented glutinous rice, rice wine, etc.

Heat-generating things

The so-called heat-inducing things mostly refer to spicy and heavy-tasting foods. These foods will induce the body to get inflamed, harm and damage the body's body fluids, lead to constipation, dry mouth, sore throat, red face and eyes, etc. When they are "heat-inducing" they are harmful to the body, and when they are "food-promoting" they benefit from warming the yang, such as ginger, scallions, pepper, mutton, beef, dog meat, etc.

The above are some of the effects and eating methods of ginger that I introduced to you. In fact, ginger has no direct effect on the body. You can eat some of it appropriately in daily life. As long as you don’t eat too much, it will not cause any harm to the body. Don’t worry too much. Just pay attention to a reasonable diet.
