I was eating as usual, but suddenly I have diarrhea. I didn't overeat, and I don't have any particular allergies... What's going on? Unexpectedly, the reason might be that I chewed sugar-free gum. The American health and nutrition media 'EatThis, NotThat' summarized some unexpected side effects that can occur even when eating healthy, ordinary foods.

Asparagus=

 

Vegetables that are low in calories but rich in nutrients. They are packed with folate, vitamin A, and vitamin C. However, some people may experience side effects. After eating asparagus, you might notice a strange smell in your urine 15 to 30 minutes later. According to experts, this smell is caused by sulfur-containing compounds in asparagus during digestion, so it is not surprising.

 

Carrot=

 

Beta-carotene is rich and helps keep the eyes healthy. However, consuming too much can cause the skin to turn orange. This occurs as excess beta-carotene accumulates under the skin. In particular, the palms of the hands and soles of the feet may turn yellowish. Similarly, eating large amounts of beta-carotene-rich foods like pumpkin and sweet potatoes can lead to similar experiences.

Bit, Blackberry=

 

Red-colored vegetables and fruits affect the color of urine. Eating beets or blackberries causes urine to turn pink. It is a temporary phenomenon and not something to worry about.

 

 

sugar-free gum

 

Removing sugar does not necessarily mean it is good for your health. Because the substances used instead of sugar can cause problems. Teeth

Sugar-free gum that is said to be good for health contains an artificial sweetener called sorbitol. However, sorbitol can cause diarrhea. According to a research team from Berlin University in Germany, sorbitol is difficult to absorb in the intestines and draws water from the blood into the intestines, so excessive intake can lead to diarrhea.

 

Hot sauce=

 

If you haven't even had coffee but still can't sleep at night... unexpectedly, spicy sauce could be the cause. A research team from the University of Tasmania in Australia found that men who accompanied their dinner with Tabasco sauce and mustard have difficulty falling asleep. To fall asleep, body temperature regulation is necessary, and spicy sauces affect that process. Not only sauces but spicy foods in general tend to interfere with restful sleep.
