Broad beans are also known as hu beans,
It's time to go public
People also like to eat
But although the broad beans are delicious
But not for everyone
Especially a small number of children
Prone to "fava bean disease"
Be wary of fava bean disease
Broad beans, also known as "beans", are the "fresh goods" of the spring equinox every year. At this time, the vegetable area of the supermarket will have fava beans for sale, both fava beans and peeled fava beans and rice, and many citizens will take advantage of the fresh and tender fava beans just listed to buy a few pounds to go home and taste fresh.
Although fava beans are delicious, it is also important to pay attention to a disease called "fava bean disease". Some people will have symptoms such as mild fever, dizziness, vomiting, abdominal pain and other symptoms after eating fava beans, mistakenly thinking that it is an allergic reaction, in fact, "fava bean disease" does not belong to the category of food allergies, it is caused by genetic defects. Fresh fava beans are a strong oxidant, and for people with genetic defects, eating fava beans is quite dangerous.
Except for fava beans
These should also be noted
The early clinical manifestations of fava bean disease may appear similar to cold symptoms, such as fever, vomiting and soft discomfort throughout the body, but typical clinical manifestations will soon appear, such as yellowing of the sclera of the eye, yellowing of the skin of the whole body, and yellowing of the urine that we can see with the naked eye, and the main reason for these clinical manifestations is that the red blood cells in our human body are destroyed, causing hemolytic anemia, and severe may lead to death.
Doctors introduced, because "fava bean disease" is a genetic disease, if one of the parents has "fava bean disease", the probability of the child's disease is very large, due to chromosomal reasons, usually the risk of male baby disease is greater than that of female babies. Therefore, parents are reminded that when they give their children broad beans for the first time, they must pay attention to observing their children's reactions after eating them.
In addition, doctors remind that people with a history of "fava bean disease", in addition to not eating fava beans and fava bean processed products, can not use drugs that may cause hemolysis, such as aspirin enteric-coated tablets, levofloxacin tablets, etc.; if mothballs are used in collected clothing, they should be exposed to the sun before dressing, because mothballs contain organic compounds such as naphthalene [nài], which can also cause hemolysis. If you experience the symptoms mentioned above when eating fava beans, please go to the hospital for treatment in time
