Eating over heating foods will leads to digestion problems and is not good for our health. Many people eat leftovers foods by heating them again it's actually not good for health as they release toxins.
Here are some list of foods we should not over heat
Potatoes : they contain high amount of potassium ,Vitamin C, vitamin B6,by over heating they release dead bacteria
Spinach: this should be never over heated because they contain nitrate which is turned to waste when we heat it and the iron content in these release free radicals which is harmful to health.
Mushrooms and chicken: mushrooms release toxins when overheated and chicken should be never over heated .
Friends if you know any foods that does harm by overheating mention it :)

It's a very good point. I know I over heat meat products often, I'm concerned with getting them "done" enough. Good to know things that shouldn't be overheated

@Icydoll Very good point. I have found it helpful now that I have a meat thermometer to not overcook things

Just use a meat thermometer @FayeHazel. Meat comes out perfect every time.

Not all foods are dangerous if re-heated (overheated is another matter). In addition to spinach and mushrooms and potatoes that you already mentioned, never re-heat celery, beets and eggs. You can re-heat almost all the other food. You can re-heat chicken, but you must be sure it is hot, if not it gives digestive problems, but it's not dangerous.

So we should avoid keeping such foods overnight in refrigerator too?

Don't worry about these things as our body i a big machine which can tackle all these problems! Can you imagine how many bacteria we are having on our skin, in our mouth and in our digestive tract? They are all our friends to take care of us from harmful bacteria! They are known as favorable bacteria! Now if you have any doubts...please heat them in micro wave as no living thing can survive in microwave! Thanks dear friend @Icydoll! had your dinner?

Oh never knew that overheating can cause so many issues. Even for Spinach and potatoes and sometimes overheating happens due to multi-tasking.
