蜂蜜跟蔥 絕對不能一起吃 真的有毒 (下)

吃綠豆湯沒多久,
左鼻孔的鼻塞就快通了...但鼻水還是一直流...眼睛還是一樣紅腫.

再吃了2碗綠豆湯, 又過了將近一小時,
鼻塞症狀慢慢解除, 但還是流鼻水,
眼睛也慢慢消腫了, 血絲也變少了.
而右眼睛變得很痠,
症狀好了一半.

又吃了2碗綠豆湯, 再過了半小時,
沒鼻塞了, 有點鼻水,
眼睛也沒紅腫了.
症狀快解除了.

看來古人說得真是沒錯,
蜂蜜跟蔥真的不能一起吃,
會引起一些急性症狀,
我是生平第一次這樣子.
真是恐怖的經驗!

還好這次是在家裡, 還方便買跟煮綠豆.
如果是在外旅遊, 可就沒這麼好處理了.
真的要小心, 蜂蜜跟蔥不能一起吃啊!!

蜂蜜跟蔥 絕對不能一起吃 真的有毒 (上)

下午一時興起自己煎了蔥餅來吃, 放了很多自己切的宜蘭蔥末跟麵粉拌一拌, 用不沾鍋煎來吃....
吃完有點口渴,就泡了得獎的純龍眼蜂蜜加水稀釋來當茶喝...

喝了一口才想到,
蔥+蜂蜜, 好像有毒,
趕快上網查了一下, 有人說有毒會死人, 有人說不會怎樣,
以防萬一, 我就停止喝蜂蜜了...

一個半小時後,
鼻子突然鼻塞(真的是很突然,我並沒有感冒喔), 而且一直不自覺地流出鼻水來,
眼睛也慢慢佈滿血絲到整個眼白都變紅色的, 然後下眼皮開始腫起來,
右耳在吞口水時會有點刺痛...
是中毒了嗎?

我拼命喝水, 但症狀依舊.
再上網查一下, 要綠豆才能解毒,
天!! 這種13度的天氣鐵定沒人在賣綠豆湯的, 去超市買綠豆回來自己煮吧!
