Li Shizhen once recorded in "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Litchi is the most valuable food, and longan is the most valuable food." This shows the high nutritional value of longan.

A large amount of tannic acid enters the human stomach and will form "stomach persimmon stones" under the action of gastric acid. Eating persimmons on an empty stomach or eating persimmons with high-protein foods can also cause this problem, which can easily cause damage to the stomach of pregnant women.
