A slimming product shaped like "chocolate" that a child is poisoned after accidentally eating
On the evening of February 20, a boy was admitted to the Children's Emergency Department of the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, only to see that the child was highly energetic and had hallucinations from time to time, saying that he had colorful animals and ghosts in front of him.
The doctor asked the family about the medical history and learned that the child had accidentally ingested a weight loss "chocolate" called "Kurojo Secret" to cause these symptoms.

The child emergency doctor considered poisoning with an unknown drug and immediately implemented emergency treatment measures, and after the full efforts of the pediatric team, the boy was out of danger.
Similar cases of weight loss "chocolate" poisoning have been reported in many other provinces
What kind of "chocolate" can cause such serious consequences? While treating the child, the pediatric team is also tracing the cause.
Judging from the pictures provided by the family, the chocolate that the child accidentally ate, the trade name is "Black Qiao Secret", is a weight loss product purchased online.
The type of product labeled is: Natural Cocoa Butter Chocolate. Labeled ingredients include: natural cocoa butter, cocoa powder, maltitol, white kidney bean extract, lipolytic enzymes, coenzymes, cellulose, etc.
Its outer packaging and product appearance are highly similar to ordinary chocolate, but according to the description of the child after waking up, its taste and texture are completely different from chocolate, "not delicious." ”
The reporter saw that there are 7 precautions in the instruction manual of this "chocolate", which are very colloquial, such as: eat less ice, do not eat too salty, eat salty is not easy to drop the scale, etc. The last precaution is: it is forbidden to take it with other drugs, and it is forbidden to take it for heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney disease, minors and lactation.
Liu Jing, an attending physician in the Department of Pediatrics at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, said that because the child's treatment has passed 40 hours since he ate "chocolate", it is difficult to detect suspicious toxic ingredients clinically.
Many media in other provinces have reported similar cases of child poisoning. In June last year, Xuzhou Media reported that Xuzhou Children's Hospital had treated a number of children who had mistakenly eaten weight loss "chocolate", and one of the children had accidentally ingested "chocolate", which was the same brand as the product that the little child had accidentally eaten, and the outer packaging and instructions were exactly the same.
In the report, the child's family purchased this chocolate-like slimming product through micro-business channels, which added the "sibutramine" prohibited by the state, but there was no label in the product manual.
Doctor's reminder: Do not easily buy Sanwu slimming products
Doctors remind the general public that weight loss should choose a scientific and healthy way, do not trust the various products on the Internet that claim to be easy to lose weight, and do not easily buy Sanwu diet pills, slimming tea, slimming chocolate and other products. "When buying all products, you must buy them from regular channels, don't trust the efficacy of weight loss products."
In addition, the doctor also reminded the majority of parents, 3-6 years old children are in the stage of ignorance and curiosity, it is easy to eat a variety of unexpected things, including drugs, detergents, buttons, magnetic beads, etc., parents must strengthen supervision, and strengthen the child's safety education, repeatedly tell the child, do not eat the food given by strangers, when the parents are not there, can not eat things that have not been tried.
Doctors also reminded that even normal chocolate is not recommended for children to eat more. Chocolate adds sugar, milk powder, etc., the calories are not low, eating more is not conducive to oral health, and the feeling of fullness brought by chocolate will affect the child's appetite, and even affect the child's growth and development.
