A few days ago, when I swiped my mobile phone, I saw that the next-door neighbor's aunt sent a circle of friends, the content of which was written that I bought pork in the supermarket, and came back to find that there were many parasites growing in the meat; The copy is also accompanied by a picture of the meat you bought.
Truth be told, it looks really disgusting, can such pork really be eaten? Parasites, which sound terrifying, are often hidden around us.
No, a woman in Guangdong, because of frequent abdominal pain, thought that she had eaten a bad stomach, and it was good to pay attention to her diet. But I never expected that after more than two months, there were often symptoms of abdominal pain, and even sometimes diarrhea.
I was afraid that there was a gastrointestinal problem, so I went to the hospital for relevant examinations; However, the results of the examination found that the woman's intestines were hiding a lot of parasites.
What's going on here?
It turns out that the woman usually likes to eat some raw food, such as raw pickled seafood, sashimi, etc., especially if her family lives in a coastal city, so she basically eats once or twice a week.
Long-term such a diet also leads to the intake of a large number of parasites in the woman's body, and the infection of the parasites leads to damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa, which will cause frontal abdominal pain and diarrhea.
In life, many people only pursue taste in terms of diet, so many people ignore whether food is safe, so they mistakenly eat foods containing parasitic food.
So what harm does it do to eat food containing parasites? In fact, whether eating food containing parasites will cause harm is related to the number of parasites ingested, the survival of parasites and the type of parasites.
From the perspective of the number of parasites, if the human body mistakenly eats fewer parasites, it will not cause excessive harm; Under normal circumstances, stomach acid will be secreted in the stomach, and gastric acid is corrosive for parasites and can play a role in eliminating parasites, so a small amount of intake of parasites will not cause excessive harm to the body.
However, if a large number of parasites are ingested, it will lead to gastric acid that cannot be completely eliminated, after all, the secretion of gastric acid is also limited; Parasites that are not eliminated will attack the human gastrointestinal mucosa, resulting in damage to the mucosa. Therefore, if the number of parasites ingested by mistake is too large, it is easy to cause some gastrointestinal diseases.
From the survival of the parasite, if the ingested parasite has become inactive, for example, after high temperature heating has caused the parasite to die, in this case there is no harm in accidentally eating the parasite.
However, if the ingested parasite is active, it is aggressive and there is a possibility of damage to the stomach. From the perspective of the type of parasite, the parasite species that are usually aggressive to the stomach are pinworms and hookworms.
Pinworms are mainly nocturnal and frequently active, and the location of existence is mainly near the anus, so patients infected with pinworms are easy to cause itching around the anus and genitals. Patients infected with hookworm are prone to symptoms such as anemia and fatigue.
Therefore, the harm of infection with parasites is relatively large, especially in the gastrointestinal aspect, which is the primary place of attack; Therefore, we should pay attention to a healthy diet in daily life, and do not mistakenly eat foods containing parasites. Beware of these 4 foods, which may contain a lot of parasites.
First, frogs; Frogs are amphibians; Amphibians are very susceptible to infection and breeding of schizocephalus mansseri parasites.
Parasites such as Schizophylcephalus mansoni are not only highly reproductive, but also extremely viable, under normal circumstances, they can survive from minus 10° to minus 56°.
Therefore, in order to avoid accidental ingestion of parasites, so as much as possible to eat frogs, if you must eat, you must ensure that they are cooked, in order to ensure that the activity of the parasites is eliminated by high temperature.
Second, crayfish
Eating crayfish in summer is the favorite of many people, but in fact, many consumers come into contact with crayfish, and the water quality environment for their survival is not good, which leads to many people eating crayfish with parasites. Therefore, eating crayfish must ensure that it is cooked at high temperature.
Third, crabs
There are many ways to eat crab, and many people in the south are keen on drunken crabs and raw pickles, although this way of eating is very delicious, but hides great harm.
Because the living environment of crabs is attached to a large number of parasites and bacteria, crabs themselves are parasitic with a large number of parasites and Helicobacter pylori.
Therefore, if the crab is not cooked at high temperature, it is easy to lead to the accidental ingestion of these parasites and bacteria. Even if alcohol is used to soak in practice, it is difficult to guarantee that parasites and bacteria are eliminated.
Fourth, field snails; The main living environment of field snails is ponds, and the water quality and environment of ponds cannot be guaranteed, so it is very likely to be infected with bacteria and parasites.
The most important thing is that the shell of the field snail is very thick, and even high temperature heating is difficult to effectively destroy these bacteria and parasites. Therefore, for the sake of their own health, we must be careful not to eat foods containing a lot of parasites in our daily life.
