Foods and drinks that should not be eaten with boiled cassava
Even though it is healthy, boiled cassava does not always go well with all types of food or drinks.
Some combinations can actually trigger digestive disorders or other health problems.The following types of food and drinks should not be combined with boiled cassava.
1. Orange
Boiled cassava should not be consumed together with acidic foods or drinks such as oranges, tomatoes or vinegar.
The acid content can react with the resistant starch in cassava, causing bloating and digestive problems.It is best to leave a time gap between consuming cassava and sour foods.
2. Milk
Warm milk is often considered suitable to accompany boiled cassava.However, the combination of boiled cassava with milk can trigger excess stomach acid production, thereby increasing the risk of digestive disorders.
Apart from milk, digestive problems can also arise when boiled cassava is consumed with other sources of animal protein, for example chicken, beef and fish.
3. Foods with added sugar
Boiled cassava is high in carbohydrates which are converted into glucose by the body.Because of this carbohydrate content, it is best not to consume boiled cassava together with sweetened foods such as cakes, candy, ice cream, or other foods high in sugar.
Consuming both together can trigger blood sugar spikes and digestive disorders.
4. Coffee
Coffee is a favorite drink that is often enjoyed together with boiled cassava when relaxing in the afternoon.However, the combination of both deserves more attention.Why?
“Polyphenols and caffeine in coffee can inhibit the absorption of non-heme iron when consumed with foods rich in iron,” said lecturer from the Department of Nutritional Sciences, Faculty of Human Ecology IPB, Reisi Nurdiani, as quoted on the website.

Apart from that, the combination of cassava which is high in starch and fiber with coffee which stimulates digestion can cause a feeling of fullness and flatulence.This condition can be very disturbing, especially for people with sensitive stomachs.
To reduce this risk, it is recommended to consume coffee around 30-60 minutes after eating boiled cassava.
