Authoritative interpretation: misunderstood food phase

People have always been particularly keen on the so-called taboos. It seems that if you know what you can't eat, you know what to eat.

With the promotion of "experts", reports on food and food taboos on newspapers and on the Internet have become so commonplace that many people can tell a few examples casually.

Cases

A health website once published a news item titled "The girl was violent and the murderer was actually shrimp + vitamin C." Recently, in Taiwan, a girl suddenly bleeds for no reason, and went to Huangquan overnight. After a preliminary autopsy, the forensic physician concluded that he had died of arsenic poisoning. Where did that arsenic come from? A medical school professor was invited to help investigate. The professor looked carefully at the contents of the victim’s stomach and in less than half an hour, the mystery of violence was revealed. The professor said: "The deceased did not commit suicide, nor was he killed, but he died of ignorant 'it kills'." Everyone is utterly puzzled. The professor went on to say, “Arsenic is produced in the abdomen of the deceased.” The original case was that the deceased took vitamin C every day before his death. There is no problem with this. The problem is that she has consumed a lot of shrimp at dinner and the shrimp itself is not a problem. However, the deceased was taking vitamin C at the same time. The problem is here!

Researchers at the University of Chicago have found through experiments that shrimp and other soft shell foods contain a large amount of potassium penta-arsenic compounds. This substance in the human body itself does not have a toxic effect on the body. However, after taking vitamin C, due to chemical action, the original non-toxic pentavalent arsenic (ie, arsenic anhydride) was changed to toxic trivalent arsenic (ie, arsenite), which is what people commonly call an arsenic. Poisoning, can paralyze capillaries, inhibit the activity of sulfhydryl enzymes, and make the liver fat liver lobular necrosis, heart, liver, kidney, intestinal congestion, epithelial cell necrosis, capillary expansion, so the poisonous and dead, often Seven hemorrhages. Therefore, for prudent reasons, shrimp should not be eaten during the period of taking vitamin C.

Reviews

This news was reported by many media. "Shrimp + Vitamin C = arsenic," and even worse, vitamin C pills have been expanded into fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C. For a time, those who love to eat seafood are worried. In fact, this argument is completely wrong.

China Health Education Center and other authoritative organizations in the “Contributions to Publicity and Reporting in the Nutrition Field (Consultation Draft)” pointed out that seafood does contain arsenic, but its content is very low. Even if all of them are under the redox effect of vitamin C, they become arsenic. If you want to cause arsenic poisoning, you have to consume dozens or even tens of kilograms of seafood. And our stomach capacity is very limited.

For arsenic in seafood to convert into arsenic, the premise is that there must be enough vitamin C to perform the reduction. The vitamin C used in the laboratory is a pure chemical reagent. Its purity and content are unmatched by our food. What's more, the human gastrointestinal tract is a relatively closed environment with a variety of digestive fluids and food residues. In this environment, can arsenic in seafood react directly with vitamin C in fruits and vegetables? Even if you react, how much arsenic can be produced? At present, there is no experiment that can give a positive answer.

Many of the foods we eat daily are rich in vitamin C, such as fresh vegetables and fruits. Can we eat vegetables and fruits when we eat shrimp? In foreign countries, when eating seafood, they often use lemon to taste, and lemon is also rich in vitamin C. At home, we often eat together with fish, shrimp, and vegetables. We haven’t heard of dead people yet.

In addition, there are some rumors of "Dog-friendly green beans - eat more food with easy poisoning," "horse meat bogey fungus - food with cholera," "donkey bogey yellow flowers - with the heartache of dead food," etc. The so-called taboos, most of them hear about ancient folk medical books.

The understanding of food by the ancients was not only confined to the diet, but also involved metaphysics such as Wuyun Liuqi and Tianxiang Fengshui. Although there is no clear modern research to prove its mistakes, from the perspective of common sense, there is very little direct interaction between traditional Chinese medicines with strong efficacy, and there is less chance of occurrence of phase g between sexually calm foods.

Experts from the China Nutrition Society agree that there is no scientific basis for the theory and theories of “food phase g” and that it cannot be confirmed in the practice of Chinese medicine and the practice of Chinese people.

In addition, the report was written by a network writer who did not formally issue agencies and authors. It was obviously fabricated. Remind readers to obtain health knowledge from formal channels and not listen to biased beliefs.
