May be a big deal
Recently, the WeChat public account of Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University published a case where Xiaoyu and Xiaomei, a post-90s couple, were diagnosed with liver cancer at the same time.
In the beginning, the two just felt tired and tired. They thought they were tired and didn’t care. But gradually Xiaoyu’s eyes and skin began to turn yellow and lose weight quickly. And Xiaomei often loses her appetite and has a poor appetite, so the two went to the hospital for examination, and they were finally diagnosed with liver cancer.
It turns out that the husband and wife run a fruit shop. The rotten fruit in the shop is reluctant to discard, so they gouge out the bad pulp and eat the rest. It is such a habit, it is very likely that they make them important cause of illness.
This morning, the reporter visited some fruit shops in Xuanwu District, Nanjing, Jiangsu. Some shop owners said that when the surface of the fruit was mildewed, they would reduce the price.
“Oranges used to sell for 5 yuan and 51 catties, but now they sell for 2 yuan and 98 cents. If they are too bad to eat, they will be thrown away. These two days, citrus and strawberries are the most easily spoiled.” Fruit shop operator Say.
In the interview, some fruit shop owners also told reporters that after the fruit has deteriorated, they sometimes eat it by themselves, but they will not sell it again.
“Look at this mango, it’s basically useless later. Sometimes I eat it myself, otherwise I just throw it away, but it’s fine to eat a little bit, and it won’t work for a long time. It’s not good for your health.”
In this regard, the people of the city have different opinions.
“It’s definitely harmful to eat, but I just can’t bear to throw it away. It’s so expensive.”
“Anyway, I don’t know how to eat it. If it hurts my stomach, I can’t eat it if it’s moldy. But many elderly people, such as my parents, must be reluctant to give up. He will remove the half. It’s no use talking.”
In this regard, nutrition experts reminded that the fruit should not be eaten after it has deteriorated. Even if the mildew part is removed and eaten, it is not safe.
“Many vitamins in fruits are destroyed, and in the process of spoilage, many bacteria and fungi enter the fruit, causing it to produce harmful substances, which will have adverse effects on the liver, kidneys, and even the body. , although the bad parts were removed, but in fact, the good parts may have entered a lot of moldy substances, which cannot be seen from the outside.” Jin Hui, director and chief physician of the Clinical Nutrition Department of Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University, reminded.
Experts say that in addition to fruits, aflatoxin will be produced after the surface of some foods becomes moldy. Aflatoxin is highly carcinogenic. Therefore, once the food becomes moldy and deteriorated, it should follow the standard of kitchen waste. Throw away as soon as possible.
“Aflatoxin is a microorganism produced by fungi and is a carcinogen. Common moldy peanuts, rice, nuts, as well as moldy chopsticks and cutting boards will produce aflatoxin, and leftovers You must eat less, it will have a bad effect on the human body.” Jin Hui said.
Fruits should be discarded promptly after they become moldy. In order to avoid this waste, you should buy on demand when purchasing. For some perishable fruits, you can refrigerate them in the freezer and eat them in time.
