We are not afraid of harm on the bright side, at least we can see and avoid it, but we are afraid that it is well hidden and cannot be seen.
In this issue, I will share with you 8 bad habits at home, which many people have not noticed, but they will be harmful to health.
1. The food is not opened and the preservation method is not followed
There are not a few people who don't read the instructions for common foods, including me, until I moved this year, and the oil suddenly had a halazi taste, and I found out that the original food after opening also has a preservation method to follow.
If you miss the storage instructions on the package and do not store it in the right place, it will accelerate the deterioration and taste, and in serious cases, it may even become moldy.
For example, the packaging of cooking oil clearly says that it should be stored in the dark, and the balcony of my kitchen is very well lit, and the seasoning area is just in front of the window.
Under the action of sunlight and high temperature, oil will decompose and release many unsaturated fatty acids, which are oxidized to produce oxides such as aldehydes and ketones, and these oxides are the source of "hala flavor".

There are also oyster sauce and some sauces, which are clearly marked to be refrigerated after opening, if you don't notice, it is likely to deteriorate and become moldy at room temperature, especially oyster sauce mold, which too many people have experienced.
In addition, there are rice, noodles, and dry goods, which also need to be sealed and dried for storage, otherwise the moisture in the air will migrate to the dry goods, resulting in moisture, which will affect the flavor at least and mildew and deteriorate at worst.

Suggestions: First, we should develop a good habit of looking at the storage requirements; the second is to buy as little as possible for things that are not eaten often; The third is to clean and check regularly, and deal with it in time once it is found, so as to avoid mutual infection between foods.
2. Peel off the rotten part of the fruit and continue to eat
Haha, speaking of which, I want to laugh, many people may say that it is the concept of the older generation to eliminate the rotten place of fruit and continue to eat, and this is almost the case in our generation.
But don't say it, don't say it, you can not eat the rotten fruit you bought, but it doesn't mean that you can survive the trap of bad fruit from the merchant.
Should I say it or not, I have always thought that sesame bananas are the softest and most delicious bananas, and my feelings have been deceived for many years, but in fact, it is a symbol that the banana is about to die, and the skin has begun to rot, and it is not a new variety.
There are also a series of leopard mangoes, sugar-hearted pineapples, milk pineapples, chocolate persimmons, jelly dragon fruits, wine-flavored durians, etc., all of which are the same routines, just talking about sleeping shrimp and backswimming fish.
By the way, for example, sesame bananas, but the skin is broken, and they may barely be edible, but you must refuse red sugar cane and purple coconut.
The former may produce 3-nitropropionic acid, which is a strong neurotoxin, and the latter contains coconut poison pseudomonas, which will produce rice fermented acid bacteria, resulting in bacterial poisoning in humans.
3. Raw coconut latte every day
A few days ago, I read a meme: Contemporary cows and horses will buy coffee for themselves to improve work efficiency.
It's a lot of damage, but what is more destructive is that the coconut latte is born every day, which can be harmful to your health.
Not to mention the damage to the nerves caused by caffeine, it is also panicked when you look closely at the sugar content.
Singapore Grading
The Food Regulations (Amendment No. 2) issued by the Singapore government classify prepackaged beverages in the market into four grades of ABCD according to their sugar content and saturated fat content, among which raw coconut latte is in the D grade.
The grades mean: A is the healthiest, B is relatively healthy, C is unhealthy, and D is the least healthy.

If this is not intuitive enough, and then look at the sugar content of various drinks, this can be directly described as shocking, and I can't imagine that a drink is equivalent to eating more than half a bag of sugar~
Speaking of which, some people may say, do you really care about these dozens of grams of sugar? Coke is 10% sugary, and rice noodles are more than 70%.
The sugar located in vegetables, fruits, and grains is a natural bound sugar, which is stable in structure, not easy to be quickly decomposed, and has less harm to tooth erosion and embedded in health.
On the contrary, free sugars added to foods are very easily absorbed by the body, thus increasing health risks.
4. Love to drink passion fruit
As soon as summer arrives, all kinds of fruit tea DIY genes are enthusiastic.
Then, in the process of making it, I found that the sweetness was not enough, and a few spoons of sugar were not enough, so I added a few more spoonfuls...
As everyone knows, some fruits with a sour taste are actually very high in sugar, and the summer "fruit tea mass representative" passion fruit is a typical one, which tastes sour and does not pull a few, but the carbohydrate content of 100 grams of fruit can account for more than 20 grams.
In addition, fruits that taste sweet may also have higher calories and sugar content, such as lychees, red dates, bananas, durians, etc., 100 grams of fruits, and some of them have carbohydrate content as high as more than 30 grams.
Of course, it is not that high-calorie fruits cannot be eaten, the dietary safety guidelines recommend a daily intake of 200~350 grams of fruits, you can refer to the recommended amount and eat low-calorie fruits together, which is both addictive and healthy.
5. Eat fried eggs
Many of my colleagues around me are general about eggs, but when they come to fried eggs, they have no resistance, and they can't wait to cover it with five, six, seven or eight layers when they eat snail noodles.
If you have this type of person around you, you must pay attention to persuasion, because although this thing is an egg, eating too much will also be harmful to the body.
The calorie of an ordinary egg is basically about 90 kcal, and after being fried, the calorie will increase to more than 100 or even 200 kcal, especially if it is made outside, for the sake of taste and shelf life, more oil may be added, so that the calorie will be higher.
Of course, fried eggs are just a representative, and eating other high-calorie foods is the same, not only because of fat accumulation and weight gain, but more importantly, it can induce a variety of major factors in chronic diseases.
In this era when the whole people pay attention to healthy eating, let's not do the opposite, we really can't control ourselves, even a couple to relieve the cravings is OK, before eating too much, touch your pockets, do you have money for medical treatment? (Don't say I'm bad, I don't dare to get sick(╥_╥))
6. Set the "radar" alarm clock
Who knows, the soul-snatching wake-up method of the "radar" alarm clock, even if you wake up quickly, you have to panic for a long time when you sit there? Seriously, don't scare yourself.
You know, people are very relaxed in their sleep, heart rate and adrenaline are at a relatively low level, and suddenly waking up will activate the body's "stress response", not only adrenaline will soar, but also heartbeat and blood pressure will increase physiologically.
If this happens frequently, it also increases the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
In addition, some people also like to use a chain alarm clock, and you can sleep for 10 minutes more when the alarm clock goes off, and sleep for 10 minutes and then sleep for 10 minutes, which should also be noted.
The results of a study in the Journal of Physiology and Human showed that the body and brain could not rest and recover from this kind of frequent wake-up sleep in a short period of time, so they would feel more tired and sleepy, and they would wake up with sequelae such as dizziness and unresponsiveness.
Therefore, the correct way to wake up is very important, the sound should be gradual, the tune is gentle and brisk, it is really not good, you can record a suitable one, in short, it can wake up, and make the mood better.
7. The take-out box is heated directly
Not to mention that I usually order takeout, even if I bring my own food, I want to buy disposable boxes to save washing dishes.
Of course, I also secretly muttered in my heart whether these plastic boxes are safe to use, and it is these muttering sounds that prompted me to conduct a deeper study of takeaway boxes.
The common materials of takeaway boxes on the market are aluminum foil, pp, ps, corn starch base, paper lunch boxes, etc.
Among them, PS (polypropylene foam) material has the worst thermal stability, deformation will occur above 75 °C, and it will melt at higher temperatures;
Then there is the PP material marked with the number 5, also called polypropylene, which can be put into the microwave oven to heat, but it may not be safe.
The reason is that the defined use temperature is -20~120 °C, although the general meal will be in this temperature range, but high oil and high sugar are exceptions, such as fried food, the temperature will reach 180 degrees Celsius or even higher, and the sweet sweet and sour tenderloin, shredded sweet potatoes, etc. can also reach 150 °C, which is far beyond the definition of the use temperature.
Once the temperature is exceeded, polypropylene may swell with oil, simply put, a part of the oil will seep into the lunch box, and the plastic in the lunch box will also be exchanged, "mixed" into the meal, then it is not safe to use.
Non-disposable plastic fresh-keeping boxes, the surface will be sticky after a long time, and this is also the reason.
Then there are cornstarch-based lunch boxes and paper lunch boxes, which sound like two very safe materials, but the maximum temperature limit for use is generally only about 110 °C.
If the temperature is too high, corn starch-based lunch boxes will also precipitate harmful substances such as plasticizers, while paper lunch boxes may leak, and non-compliant paper lunch boxes will also involve more serious problems such as recycled paper and oil film containing xylene.
Relatively speaking, among takeaway lunch boxes, aluminum foil lunch boxes have the highest durability temperature (up to 260 °C) and are the safest to use, but the cost is also high, and only slightly high-end catering brands will use this type of packaging lunch box.
Therefore, the take-out lunch box can be used as little as possible or less, and the take-out that cannot be avoided should also be poured into the bowl and plate of safe materials such as ceramic glass for heating, for the sake of health, washing one more bowl is actually not so troublesome.
Of course, when you encounter a takeaway box that you are really reluctant to throw away, it doesn't necessarily have to be used for meals, and it is not bad to use it as a storage product.
8. Always press and pull the hair
If the hair is often pressed and pulled, it will hurt the hair, which everyone should know, but the specific cause and extent may not be clear.
In this way, it is much more harmful to the hair than perm and dyeing, because the damage to the hair caused by perm and dyeing only stays on the hair that has grown.
In the long run, the injured hair follicles will shrink or stop growing, resulting in thinner and less hair.
Moreover, it is not only the person who sleeps on the pillow who presses the hair, wears a hat for a long time, and ties the hair too tightly, which is also another way of pressing and pulling, and should be avoided at ordinary times.
In addition, poor hair quality and hair loss are also related to genes, mental stress, staying up late, etc., irregular sleep and high mental pressure will disrupt hormone secretion and affect the health of hair follicles.
Therefore, when hair loss and hair loss are serious at a certain stage, we must first start to recall from these aspects, which link has a problem, correct it in time, and the recovery state is just around the corner.
In addition, you should also pay attention to the changes in hair loss, oil, and dandruff when you usually change your shampoo, so as not to buy a shampoo that is not suitable for you and hurt your hair without knowing it.
