    It's not good to eat more lychees, so you can't eat more lychees. If you eat more lychees, you may get lyche disease. Most of the monosaccharides contained in litchi are fructose. After being absorbed by the body, fructose must be catalyzed by a series of enzymes before it can be transformed into glucose for energy supply or into glycogen storage for oxidation and utilization by tissue cells. If you eat too much lychee at one time and ingest too much fructose, your blood sugar (blood sugar refers to the concentration of glucose in the blood) will be much lower than normal and cause hypoglycemia.
