Cashews are a nutritious nut that is rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, and a variety of vitamins and minerals. However, due to the high calorie content of cashew nuts, some people are concerned that eating too much of them can lead to fire. So, will cashew nuts catch fire after eating? How many cashew nuts can you eat in a day? Let's take a look at these questions.
First, let's understand what a fire is. Heat is a TCM concept that usually refers to the excessive heat in the body, resulting in symptoms such as mouth and tongue sores, dry mouth and throat, and constipation. Cashew nuts themselves are nut-based foods with high calorie and fat content, and if consumed in excess, they may lead to excess calories in the body, which can trigger symptoms of fire.
So, how many cashews can you eat in a day? In general, it is recommended to control the amount of cashew nuts consumed between 15-25 grams per day. This amount can be adjusted according to individual needs, but not too much. If you consume too much, it may lead to a calorie surplus, which can lead to health problems such as obesity and elevated blood lipids. In addition, if you already have symptoms of fire, it is recommended to reduce the intake of cashew nuts or stop eating them temporarily.
In addition, there are a few things we can do to reduce the risk of getting on fire. First, choose fresh cashews and avoid eating cashews that have expired or gone bad. Secondly, eat it in moderation with other ingredients, such as fruits and vegetables, to balance your nutritional intake. At the same time, keep your diet light and avoid excessive intake of greasy and spicy foods. Finally, drinking plenty of water to maintain your body's water balance can help prevent the appearance of heat symptoms.
In conclusion, cashews are a nutritious food, but excessive consumption may cause symptoms of fire. To reduce the risk of fire, we should control our daily intake and take some precautions. By combining ingredients wisely, keeping our diet light and drinking plenty of water, we can better enjoy the delicious taste and nutritional value of cashew nuts.
