KOMPAS.com – Durian, an exotic fruit loved by many people, is often a luxury snack choice when the harvest season arrives.

However, enjoying durian requires paying attention to the right food combination.

Certain types of food or drinks, if consumed together, can reduce the enjoyment of durian or even have an adverse effect on the body.

Here’s a guide to avoiding combinations that aren’t recommended when enjoying durian.

1. Avoid consuming Durian with meat

According to VN Express, Dr. Huynh Tan Vu from Ho Chi Minh University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital said that certain types of meat such as beef, lamb and seafood are not recommended to be consumed with durian.

Durian contains high levels of sugar, fat and potassium, while the flesh is rich in protein and saturated fat.

This combination can increase cholesterol suddenly and pose a risk to heart health.

2. Spicy foods can reduce the enjoyment of durian

Durian has “hot” properties in traditional medicine.

When combined with spicy foods such as chili, garlic or ginger, discomfort can occur, such as a sensation of excessive heat in the body. Apart from that, the typical sweet taste of durian can be disturbed.

3. Coffee and Durian, a combination to avoid

The combination of durian and coffee can cause digestive problems and bad breath.

Reporting from VN Express, the sulfur oil in durian can inhibit the aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme, which works to break down caffeine. As a result, the body can experience dangerous toxicity.

4. Durian and Alcohol, a Dangerous Combination

According to Adventist Health, consuming durian with alcohol can excessively increase body heat.

This combination can also be dangerous for people with diabetes and hypertension, triggering headaches, fast heartbeats, and even stroke.

5. Don’t mix durian with soft drinks

Durian consumed with fizzy drinks can cause gas pressure in the stomach.

This makes the stomach feel bloated and uncomfortable, and in certain cases can even cause serious digestive problems.
