Myth You can't eat asparagus for gout?

Truth: Not accurate. Asparagus is a medium-high purine food and should be eaten sparingly, but it is not completely impossible to eat. In recent years, a number of clinical studies have shown that eating purine-rich vegetables does not increase blood uric acid levels and the incidence of gout. When evaluating whether a food is suitable for people with gout, it is not enough to consider the purine content alone. In fact, the purine content of most vegetables is in the "low-medium" and "low" categories. Moreover, vegetables are also rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber and plant antioxidants, and normal consumption is also good for people with gout.

This "hobby" may endanger national security!

Details: Knotted stockings with small snakes inside, giant centipedes packed into packed lunch boxes, biscuit boxes filled with a bunch of plastic tubes filled with ants, and inbound packages declared as "camera tripods" are actually 28 species of live spiders......

In recent years, some pet lovers who pursue the so-called trendy and curious have imported "exotic pets" from abroad through illegal channels and channels. These "exotic pets" may be highly toxic or carry epidemics, causing unpredictable damage to the mainland's ecological environment and having a negative impact on the economy, society, and people's lives.

In order to protect the ecological security and biodiversity of the mainland, the General Administration of Customs has deployed a three-year special action to strictly prevent the invasion of alien species, and the Ministry of Public Security has launched the "Kunlun 2023" special action. At present, the mainland has enabled digital information technology to monitor and warn of invasive species, and the first batch of more than 600 invasive species has been included.

So, what are the penalties for carrying or mailing "exotic pets" into the country without authorization? Some acts of carrying or mailing "exotic pets" into the country without authorization may have touched the red line of the law and need to bear corresponding legal responsibility. The 11th Amendment to the Criminal Law, which came into effect in 2021, added the crime of "illegal introduction, release and discarding of invasive alien species".
