1. How do you plant hawthorn seeds after eating them?

First, choose mature seeds. If hawthorn seeds are to be planted, the seeds must be mature, so the germination rate is higher. Then, wash the seeds.

2. Can hawthorn seeds be eaten?

Hawthorn seeds can be eaten, generally as medicine. They can be decocted in soup and drunk, or ground into powder and swallowed. Hawthorn seeds are bitter in taste and neutral in nature, and have the effects of aiding digestion, dissipating masses, and promoting labor. They mainly treat indigestion, hernia, unilateral sagging of the testicles, and difficult labor.

The medicinal properties of hawthorn seeds are: orange-segment-shaped oval or ovate, 3-5mm long, 2-3mm wide; the surface is yellow-brown, the back is slightly raised, and the left and right sides are flat or have indentations; the texture is hard and not easy to break.

3. What should hawthorn not be eaten with?

1. Pork liver: Hawthorn contains abundant vitamin C, while pork liver contains metal trace elements such as copper, iron, and zinc. Eating the two together will accelerate the oxidation and destruction of vitamin C, thereby reducing the nutritional value of hawthorn.

2. Carrots, cucumbers, pumpkins, etc.: Hawthorn contains a large amount of vitamin C, while vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, and pumpkins contain a large amount of vitamin C-degrading enzymes. Eating the two together will destroy and break down the vitamin C in hawthorn, thereby reducing the nutritional value of hawthorn.

3. Seafood: Hawthorn contains tannic acid, while seafood contains abundant minerals such as calcium, iron, carbon, and iodine as well as protein. Eating the two together causes tannic acid to combine with certain substances in seafood, forming substances that are not easy to digest, which can cause constipation and trigger symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

4. Cold and cool foods: Hawthorn itself is a cool-natured food. Eating it with other cool-natured foods can easily cause diarrhea.
