As the saying goes, pickled vegetables in small snow, pickled meat in heavy snow
Pickled vegetables are also a favorite of many people
But no matter how delicious pickles
It is also not advisable to eat too much
Recently, more than one person in Hangzhou has been admitted to the hospital because of pickles, and Aunt Shu from Xiaoshan is one of them.
On the day of the incident, she came to the fever clinic of the First People's Hospital of Xiaoshan District with her stomach covered: "Doctor, I have been having diarrhea for 5 days in a row, and I have to run to the toilet seven or eight times a day, vomiting and diarrhea. Still feverish, 39.3°C......"
In fact, on weekdays, Aunt Shu's body is quite tough, and she is also very careful about her diet. Since the beginning of winter, there has been a bowl of hot pickled vegetable soup on the table at home, and she has been drinking it for more than half a month.
When the doctor heard this, he sighed: "You are already the second patient to come to the doctor this morning because of pickled vegetable soup, and it is estimated that it is acute enteritis." "The examination showed that Aunt Shu's white blood cells exceeded the standard and the occult blood test was positive, which is a typical symptom of acute enteritis, and she must be admitted to the hospital for treatment immediately.
Fortunately, after symptomatic treatment such as anti-infection and rehydration, Aunt Shu's body temperature has also dropped, and her diarrhea symptoms have also been alleviated, and she has been successfully discharged from the hospital.
A lot of people like to eat pickled foods
Pickled cabbage, pickled meat, sauced duck......
It is also a "frequent visitor" on the winter table
But how to eat pickled food safely?
In this regard, Hu Piao, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the First People's Hospital of Xiaoshan District, said that when making pickled food, you must pay attention to hygiene and wash it clean.
The first principle of pickled food is to marinate thoroughly before eating, for example, pickled vegetables should be more than 10 days, and cured meat should be more than 20 days. Generally, in the 7-15 days after pickling of pickles, the production of nitrite is the largest and the synthesis amount is the largest. After 21 days, its content decreases significantly, making it relatively safe to consume.
The toxins in preserved foods are afraid of high temperatures, so if they are steamed for 15 minutes before consumption, most of the toxins can be removed. Moreover, pickled foods should not be fried and eaten, otherwise some nutrients will be converted into carcinogens.
The doctor reminded the general public
When eating preserved foods
Serving size for adults
It is best not to exceed 150g
It is best not to consume more than 3 times a week
Do not consume consecutively
Try not to mix with foods with a high protein content
Serve together
Highlight the point
Whether it is steamed or stir-fried, you can add garlic, onion, chili, and ginger.
- These spicy spices can help inhibit nitrate-reducing bacteria in the stomach;
- reduce nitrate levels;
- It can also enhance gastrointestinal peristalsis;
- Promote the secretion of digestive juices, thereby accelerating the decomposition and discharge of harmful substances.
After eating pickled products, you can eat some foods rich in vitamin C such as kiwifruit, cherries, strawberries, oranges, etc.
Hu Piao said: "From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, pickled foods are mostly cold, and people who usually have a cold constitution try to eat less. It is okay for the general population to eat a small amount of pickled vegetables as an appetizer, if the pickled vegetables are used as a main dish or even to replace fresh vegetables, it is not appropriate, and long-term excessive consumption of pickled foods is undoubtedly harmful to the human body. Such popular science information should be read by more elderly people. ”
