There are many hidden dangers in food stalls. Acute gastroenteritis and infectious diarrhea occur frequently in July and August.
Generally, food stalls are in downtown areas, with heavy traffic and dusty, which may pollute food. Moreover, the automobile exhaust emissions on the street are concentrated, and the exhaust gas contains many harmful substances, which will cause chronic damage to many people after inhalation or ingestion. In addition, some small restaurants and food stalls may use unqualified tableware or reuse unqualified tableware in order to reduce costs and improve profits, which has a great impact on people's health.
Food stall consumption depends on whether tableware, kitchen and health certificate are qualified.
When you go to a food stall, the most important thing to pay attention to is hygiene. First, it depends on whether tableware, such as bamboo sticks for barbecue, is reused and thoroughly disinfected after repeated use; Secondly, it depends on whether the operator has a health certificate and a business license. If they operate without a license, it is difficult to ensure their health awareness. Third, look at the sanitary condition of the kitchen, whether the utensils for holding food are clean, and whether the kitchen smells of food corruption. When the temperature is high in summer, food is easy to rot and deteriorate, and sometimes you can smell some peculiar smell as soon as you pass through the kitchen. There must be something stale in these things. "
In addition to choosing stalls with better sanitary conditions, it is best not to go to food stalls to eat greasy food after dinner. On the one hand, this will not only affect the digestive function of the gastrointestinal tract, but also affect the sleep that night. On the other hand, the calories you eat can't be absorbed in time, which may lead to hyperlipidemia, which is very harmful to human body. In summer, you can choose some light and digestible foods, such as boiled edamame, boiled peanuts and tomatoes. Don't mix and match, don't overeat.
Eating too much meat and barbecue can cause cancer. Experts suggest eating more garlic, fruits and vegetables.
The open storage of processed food and tableware in roadside stalls does not meet the hygiene standards, and some barbecues will also produce carcinogens during processing. In summer, especially in small restaurants, there are many cockroaches and mice, including flies and mosquitoes flying around, which may cause secondary pollution. In addition, eating barbecue is mostly meat, and long-term accumulation in the body will lead to gastric cancer, colon cancer and liver cancer. Friends who often eat barbecue can eat more foods that help detoxify the body and help fight cancer. For example, garlic itself is an anticancer food, which can inhibit the absorption of nitrosamines and reduce the synthesis of nitrosamines in the body; Chinese cabbage is also recognized as an anti-cancer food, and the trace element molybdenum contained in it can reduce the accumulation of carcinogens such as nitrosamines in the body. In addition, eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins to help the body achieve the effect of "self-purification".
