What unhealthy foods can't be eaten?

Food researchers have found that some "special-shaped" foods are not suitable for eating, otherwise it will endanger human health.

1. Rootless bean sprouts In the process of producing rootless bean sprouts, herbicides need to be applied, and the herbicides contain carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic harmful substances. Therefore, rootless bean sprouts with herbicides are not edible.

2. The content of solanine in the buds and green skins of germinated potatoes is very high, which is easy to be poisoned after eating. Poisoning symptoms are usually nausea and vomiting, which can lead to fever, shortness of breath, convulsions and coma in severe cases. So it germinated, and potatoes with green skins could not be eaten. If you want to eat it, soak it in cold water first, and completely cut off the bud embryo and the green part. When cooking, add a small amount of vinegar and heat it fully.

3. Rotten ginger will produce a highly toxic safrole, which is easy to cause liver cell poisoning, degeneration and even liver function decline.

4. Fresh daylily Fresh daylily contains colchicine, which is highly toxic after entering the human body, and can cause dry throat, heartburn, nausea and vomiting, and even bloody stool, hematuria or urinary incontinence in severe cases. If you first blanch the day lily with boiling water, and then soak it in cold water for 2 hours (water needs to be changed in the middle), you can safely eat it.

5. Raw green beans Raw green beans contain saponins and lectins, which have strong irritation and coagulation effects. For example, if the food is not cooked and the toxin is not destroyed, people will have nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, cold sweat and so on. Because the saponins and lectins contained in green beans are easily destroyed when exposed to high temperature and water, they should be boiled in water until cooked.

6. Rotten cabbage After the cabbage rots, the nitrate contained in it will become nitrite. Nitrite can oxidize low-iron hemoglobin in blood into methemoglobin, thus losing its oxygen-carrying ability, leading to hypoxia, causing headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, increased heart rate, and even convulsions, coma and even life-threatening.

7. Saltless pickles such as white radish and radish all contain a certain amount of nitrate. When pickling vegetables, if the salt content is insufficient or the pickling time is short (usually at least 8 days), reducing bacteria multiply in large numbers, turning non-toxic nitrate into toxic nitrite, which will lead to cyanosis of lips, nails and whole body skin, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, dizziness and headache, and severe respiratory failure. Therefore, when pickling vegetables, you should put more salt properly and marinate them thoroughly before eating.

8. Deteriorated tremella will deteriorate due to improper storage, which is caused by Flavobacterium pollution. Eating this tremella can cause dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and in severe cases, hematuria, vomiting blood, convulsions and even coma. Some vendors sell the tremella at a good price and fumigate the tremella cultivated in plastic greenhouses with sulfur. Eating this pure white tremella is also harmful to health.

9. The long black spot of sweet potato is caused by Alternaria alternata infection. This variegated fungus can produce toxin, which is easy to be poisoned if eaten. Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, high fever, convulsions and coma, and even death.

10. Deformed melons and fruits are often polluted by toxic substances, and people are easily poisoned after eating them.

1 1. Deteriorated sugarcane is black or brown and tastes like alcohol, which is caused by toxins produced by Fusarium moniliforme infection. People who eat this sugarcane will have dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms. , some will also have nervous system symptoms such as limited physical activity, convulsions, coma and salivation. In severe cases, it can lead to death.

12. Moldy tea can't be preserved well, and it is easy to be moldy after being polluted by Penicillium, Aspergillus or Fusarium. These molds can produce mycotoxins, such as penicillic acid and hydrochloric acid. If you drink tea soaked in moldy tea leaves, it will cause dizziness, dizziness, abdominal pain and diarrhea.

13. Immature green tomatoes contain biotin, which can be hydrolyzed by acid to form secondary alkali of tomatoes. After eating, people will feel bitter in their mouths, which will lead to poisoning in severe cases.
