Why are people now more and more unruly?Overnight vegetables, bad apples, sprouted potatoes, and other things that used to be edible are no longer edible.
Recently, a news about a man who was admitted to the ICU because he ate overnight food has attracted widespread attention. This makes us wonder why people are becoming more and more unruly now
In the past, we used to hear the older generation say, "Overnight vegetables, bad apples, sprouted potatoes, etc., which used to be edible, are no longer edible." "However, with the improvement of living standards and the increase in food safety awareness, our requirements for food are also increasing. These seemingly harmless foods, under the research of modern medicine, may pose a potential threat to human health.
First of all, bacterial growth in overnight dishes is an important concern. When we leave food at room temperature overnight, bacteria multiply quickly, producing toxins. These toxins can cause food poisoning, trigger gastrointestinal disorders, and even be life-threatening. Therefore, in order to protect our health, we should try to avoid overnight dishes.
Secondly, there may be harmful substances in bad apples and sprouted potatoes. The rotten parts in bad apples produce mold, and some of these molds produce toxic substances like aflatoxin. The solanine content in sprouted potatoes will also increase, and this substance has a certain toxicity to the human body. Therefore, to protect our health, we should choose fresh foods and avoid eating bad apples and sprouted potatoes.
In addition, the lifestyle of modern people also puts forward higher requirements for food safety. Our diets have changed, with more and more high-fat, high-sugar foods and a decrease in the intake of natural foods such as vegetables and fruits. This unbalanced diet can easily lead to the occurrence of chronic diseases such as obesity and high blood pressure. Therefore, we should focus on a balanced diet, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and maintain a healthy weight.
In short, the incident of the man who was admitted to the ICU for eating overnight food reminds us that people are now more and more demanding for food, and food safety issues are getting more and more attention. We should increase our awareness of food safety, choose fresh food, and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Only in this way can we stay away from food poisoning and other food safety problems and have a healthy body.
