Pigs have been the main food of the people of the world since ancient times, and Chinese is also the most capable pig in the world, and almost half of the world's pigs are in China.

So, here's the problem:
Is there any part of the Second Master's body that should not be eaten?

There must be many friends who like the unique "fragrant" taste of pig intestines. The famous old Beijing brine boiled and burned, the important raw material is the pig intestine.
Eating it is called a fragrant ah, but you may forget one thing: the large intestine is the place where the residue (that is, the poop) after food digestion is discharged, so it is a place with a unique taste.
There may be more microorganisms here, and there may indeed be parasites, pathogenic bacteria... Doesn't that sound dirty?
In fact, as long as it is thoroughly cleaned, the surface can not see dirty things, and the microorganisms are killed by heating and cooking thoroughly, you can eat with confidence.

People are the same as pigs, the liver is the largest "detoxifier" and poison "transit station", heavy metals and other toxic and harmful substances into the body, need to be processed by the liver and then discharged.
If it is a sick pig, the liver can decline, or when the toxic and harmful substances are over-eaten by mistake, these harmful substances will accumulate in the pig liver.
But! What matters is always however.
The content of heavy metals in pork liver is "relatively high", which does not mean that it must exceed the standard, the key is to choose a reliable place as much as possible and buy products with inspection and quarantine marks.
Like pork, replacing other red meat with pork liver, eating 1 to 2 times a month, no more than 75 grams each time, is still very helpful for supplementing heme iron and hemoglobin.
To say that iron tonify blood, pig blood is chosen.
As long as it is a healthy pig, blood products are safe.
If you go to an irregular place and accidentally buy sick pork or unsearned pig blood, that's a different story.

In the early years, it was also recommended to eat more than 300 mg of cholesterol per day.
However, at present, it is agreed at home and abroad that the amount of cholesterol in food does not have much impact on the amount of cholesterol in the body and cardiovascular disease, and the restrictions on cholesterol have been canceled.
For health, not eating too much animal fat is the key, not just looking at how much cholesterol there is.
The cholesterol content in the pig brain is indeed relatively high. Cholesterol content per 100 grams of pig brain, up to 2571 mg. There are only about 230 mg in 100 grams of fresh squid and only about 200 mg in an egg yolk.
If you like to eat, eat about 50 grams of pig brain 2 to 3 times a month, there is no problem.
In the same way, squid can still be eaten, egg yolks can still be eaten, and the world is still really good.
There is a saying on the Internet that it is like this:
There are many alveoli in pig lungs, and the alveoli are gas exchange places, which will accumulate a lot of dust from the air, and there will be a lot of dust in pig lungs. Coupled with the fact that pigs love to arch the ground, they will suck in more dust, so pig lungs cannot be eaten.
Let's talk about people first.
There is a disease called "lung dust disease", which is currently only found in people.
It is mainly caused by long-term dust-filled workplaces, inhaling a large amount of dust and causing dust to accumulate in the alveoli under the peripheral bronchi.
But pigs are much happier than people!
Also, pig farmers want them to grow white and fat, and they won't let them live too badly or get sick. Even if pigs like arch soil and arch cabbage, they will not suck the soil into the body.
Pigs don't eat soil.
And they don't live in a place with particularly much dust, after all, they don't need to work and make money...
Just need to grow up... Be eaten. (Heartache for a second)
