During the Spring Festival, I went to a doctor's friend's house and found that his family no longer used traditional wooden chopsticks, but all of them were replaced by stainless steel chopsticks. This made me very curious, obviously wooden chopsticks are more comfortable to use. Therefore, as soon as I finished eating, I asked the question in my heart, and my friend told me: wooden chopsticks are very unhealthy for a long time, which is equivalent to "chronic suicide"!
Chopsticks are light and flexible, becoming one of the indispensable "protagonists" on the Chinese table, but with the progress of the times, everyone gradually let the traditional wooden chopsticks withdraw from the table and replace them with stainless steel chopsticks.
As the saying goes, "disease comes from the mouth", and many viruses go through our mouths.
Many people's wooden chopsticks in the home have appeared discoloration, mildew, scratches, wear, odor, etc., if your wooden chopsticks have the above situation, quickly lose, do not stay for a moment! Continuing to use these wooden chopsticks is equivalent to "chronic suicide"!
This is not alarmist, but about everyone's health.
When everyone washes chopsticks, they all add a little dish soap, and then rub and rinse the chopsticks with both hands under the faucet, do you think this will be washed? In fact, it is not washed, those viruses are full of chopsticks, and the virus on the chopsticks enters your body when you use it again, the first of which are aflatoxin and Helicobacter pylori.
Aflatoxin is a "class of carcinogens" identified by the World Health Organization and has a strong damaging effect on the liver.
See here many people want to say, chopsticks are not food, how can there be aflatoxin? Indeed, but the overtime use of chopsticks and the wrong cleaning of chopsticks allow our food residue to attach to the wooden chopsticks, thus becoming moldy and deteriorating, allowing everyone to be contaminated with aflatoxin, so that we have a risk of carcinogen.
Nearly half of the stomach cancers on the mainland are related to Helicobacter pylori, helicobacter pylori will destroy our gastric mucosa, release toxins, lead to gastritis, stomach ulcers, and serious cases will lead to the occurrence of stomach cancer. Helicobacter pylori has the possibility of transmission through chopsticks, the most common in the mainland is the meal system, habitual use of chopsticks, which is why China's stomach cancer incidence accounts for 44% of the world, the mortality rate is as high as 50%.
So how to clean the wooden chopsticks is the right one?
1, we newly bought home wooden chopsticks, with detergent and water to wash again, and then rinse with clean water. Most importantly, you need to put the chopsticks in the pot, add the right amount of white vinegar with boiling water and cook for 30 minutes, so that you can thoroughly disinfect. Finally, dry the water and put it in the disinfection cabinet for disinfection.
2. When cleaning chopsticks, you should first rinse the surface of the wooden chopsticks, and then use the dish soap to scrub the wooden chopsticks. Many people scrub wooden chopsticks are too simple and rough, so it is wrong, the correct approach is to control the strength when scrubbing chopsticks, it is best to use a dishwashing cloth to help scrub, each scrubbing two or three, which can also reduce friction.
Because under the strong friction and collision, it will lead to the wear of the protective film of the wooden chopsticks, and the wooden chopsticks will become rough and produce groove cracks, which will not only reduce the service life of the wooden chopsticks, but also lead to food residues attached to the wooden chopsticks, resulting in mold and decay, which is why aflatoxin is produced.
3. After washing the wooden chopsticks every day, the wooden chopsticks should also be dried with moisture, put into the disinfection cabinet to dry and disinfect, and ensure that the wooden chopsticks are dried and then stored, so that they can be effectively sterilized.
4. It is worth noting that wooden chopsticks are stored in a ventilated and cool place. When storing chopsticks, choose a chopstick box that is hollowed out and does not accumulate water at the bottom, and the chopsticks must be placed vertically, remember to put the chopsticks head up. The chopstick box is also good to clean and disinfect regularly, but do not use strong acid or strong alkali cleaners to prevent residual chemicals from entering the human body and causing harm to our bodies.
5. Most importantly, the traditional wooden chopsticks will be replaced in 3-6 months, although we look at the wooden chopsticks clean, but there are tens of thousands of bacteria attached to them. If you find that the wooden chopsticks are bent or deformed, because of the moisture appear mold, mold spots, or leave them for too long, please throw them away in time to replace them.
Frugality is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and this phenomenon is especially evident in the elderly. The elders of the family always think that as long as the chopsticks can still be used, they are always reluctant to lose them, thinking that if they boil bacteria with hot water, the virus will all be gone. However, aflatoxin can not be killed so simply, killing aflatoxin is best to use a high temperature of 280 ° C, and the boiling point of water is only 100 ° C, is there such a way to kill aflatoxin?
Therefore, for the sake of your family, you may wish to use stainless steel chopsticks. However, the purchase of stainless steel chopsticks can pay attention to whether stainless steel is food-grade stainless steel, not food-grade will contain heavy metals, so it is toxic.
This stainless steel chopsticks use SUS304 stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and heat resistance, and is used in auto parts, ships, medical appliances, food industry, etc. In addition, molybdenum elements chopsticks have a good structure of corrosion resistance. SUS304 stainless steel has good chloride corrosion resistance, so it is excellent as a food steel.
The tip of the chopstick laser is non-slip, which can easily clip any food, and even the marbles can be easily clipped. The plane has no depression, the use of one-piece molding, full seal, no welding, usually use force scrubbing, use a 3 years and 5 years, there will be no grooves, cracks, and will not hide dirt and dirt, breed bacteria.
Of course, stainless steel chopsticks also have trouble, that is, the heat conduction is fast. In order to eat hot food is not hot, SUS304 stainless steel chopsticks are hollow design, heat dissipation fast, heat insulation and anti-scalding, even if it is taken out directly from 100 degrees of boiling water, do not worry about hot hands. The design is not like the usual stainless steel chopsticks are round, put on the table a little inattentive to roll to the bottom, but the use of mainland traditional design "upper circle below", rich people we take chopsticks daily habits, to achieve smooth and do not roll.
SUS304 stainless steel chopsticks are not moldy, no bacteria, no deformation, no slip, wear-resistant and durable, a pair can be used for three or five years. This is it, why not moldy and not bacteria, the Institute of Metal Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been researching antibacterial stainless steel for eighteen years, the antibacterial rate of 99.9% of the bottom line, is a must for the family "healthy chopsticks".
