Preface
Li Yutong clutched his aching chest and panted hard.
As a civil aviation captain, she is 38 years old this year, and she travels between different airports all year round, and her life and rest are extremely irregular.
Although the company organizes physical examinations every year, she still neglects her physical health.
The pain was so intense that she even wondered if she had been struck by some sudden illness.
Just as she was hesitating whether she needed immediate medical attention, a shocking news came - dragon fruit that she had just bought and eaten at a chain fruit supermarket.
It was revealed that there were serious safety risks, and there were even terrifying remarks on the Internet such as "one bite is equal to eating 5 catties of fat", "this fruit is a 'trigger' of blood clots"!
An indescribable chagrin and fear instantly filled Li Yutong's heart.
As an experienced captain, she certainly knows how harmful blood clots can be.
Once a blood clot is encountered in the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters, it will be quite a tragic disaster! She couldn't help but think about it, and all kinds of terrible scenes came to her mind:
The plane was suddenly turbulent in the clouds, and she suddenly fainted in the cockpit with a sharp pain, and the flight was unmanned and lost in the vast sea of clouds......
Just when she was starting to feel anxious and self-loathing, luckily, she quickly came to her senses.
Years of flying professionalism kept her level in mind, and she realized that she should not be confused and disturbed by some unsubstantiated rumors.
So she immediately turned on her computer and consulted some authoritative medical websites and journals.
It turns out that dragon fruit does contain some substances that can affect blood clotting, but its content is extremely low, and unless a large dose of concentrated extract is taken, it cannot cause complications such as blood clots.
The reason why there is a saying that "one bite is equal to eating 5 catties of fatty meat" is because some nutrients in dragon fruit are high in calories, and if you consume too much, it will indeed increase your weight and the risk of obesity in the long run.
After further searching, Li Yutong also found that what she had just experienced was actually likely to be a symptom called "angina".
This is a temporary type of chest pain caused by myocardial ischemia and is common in people with coronary heart disease, but it may occasionally occur in some people with poor lifestyles.
As a professional with high-intensity work, Li Yutong's long-term lack of sleep, excessive stress, and irregular diet are all risk factors for this symptom.
After reading the relevant content, Li Yutong completely let go of the doubts in his heart.
However, this experience made her deeply realize how important a healthy lifestyle is for modern people.
She is determined to exercise more and eat a balanced diet in her spare time, so as to keep herself away from the threat of various diseases and continue to contribute to the cause of civil aviation.
This is an ordinary person, disturbed by Internet rumors, and finally relying on rational thinking and professional knowledge judgment to obtain inner peace.
In this information age, each of us should improve our ability to do things, learn to draw inferences from others, and not be confused by false remarks, so as to fall into unnecessary panic.
Everyone strives to be a "rational person", and the society will be better.
