Summer is here, the weather is hot, a variety of germs fungus breeding, coupled with the spread of mosquito bites, parents a little inattention, will lead to a variety of child disease triggered. A few days ago, Ms. Wang’s family of four, in a week of continuous stomach upset, bloating, anorexia, vomiting, fever …… The two sons had stomach bleeding and the husband had hepatitis B. After the hospital examination, it was found that the culprit that caused the whole family to fall ill was aflatoxin poisoning and Helicobacter pylori. What is H. pylori H. pylori is abbreviated as Hp, which is classified as a class of carcinogen by the World Health Organization and is mainly transmitted through saliva. Its incubation period is long, generally at the age of 35 is the outbreak of disease in carriers of this germ, and 60 is the high incidence of cancer. Once infected, if left untreated, H. pylori may stay with the child for life. According to the information, more than 50% of people worldwide carry H. pylori, and the infection rate in children is 25% to 64.39%. The main symptom is chronic abdominal pain, which predisposes to stomach cancer. In a small number of children, various upper gastrointestinal symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, belching, acid reflux, vomiting blood, blood in stool, malnutrition, constipation and early satiety are observed. Suggestions: If there are adults at home infected with H. pylori, use separate utensils for adults and children. Try to use public chopsticks when you clip the food; another thing, parents should not kiss their children mouth to mouth again, this practice is also prone to infection. H. pylori bacterium’s nemesis 1, cabbage and purple kale (anthocyanin) contains a chemical similar to raw stomach ketones, with antibiotic effect, can kill a variety of bacteria, including H. pylori. Drink 1/4 cabbage juice every day for 3 weeks to reduce abdominal pain caused by gastric ulcer drink duodenal ulcer, and help the healing of both ulcers. 2, garlic and onions rich in a large number of organosulfur compounds and flavonols, can significantly reduce the nitrite content in the stomach, reducing the possibility of synthesis of amyl nitrite, reducing the incidence of gastric cancer by 25%, 30% of the fatal rate. 3.Honey Drinking honey after a meal can prolong its stay on the gastric mucosa. You can put 30 ml of honey in a bowl, stir with chopsticks until it becomes foamy, add 120 ml of warm boiled water and stir well, then drink slowly. 4, monkey head mushroom Regular consumption of monkey head mushroom can enhance the barrier function of the gastric mucosa, which is beneficial to the healing of ulcers and the regeneration and repair of the gastric mucosal epithelium. 5.Yogurt and banana Banana is added to yogurt to reduce the secretion of excess stomach acid. Probiotics are bacteria that are beneficial to the colon, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus. They help inhibit the growth of H. pylori in the stomach. One banana a day and H. pylori stays away from you! What is aflatoxin Aflatoxin is classified by the World Health Organization as a class of carcinogen, its toxicity is 10 times more toxic than the highly toxic substance potassium cyanide poison, 68 times more toxic than arsenic, mainly in the form of spores spread. The optimum temperature for its growth is 26 ℃ to 28 ℃, the higher the temperature, the faster the growth. And once in the temperature of 28 ~ 33 ℃, humidity 80% ~ 90% of the environment, aflatoxin can soon secrete toxin. Toxin stability, fire extinguishing temperature at 280 ℃, even if the disinfection cabinet can not. Once this toxin enters the body, the most damage to the liver. Children who accidentally eat food containing aflatoxin deterioration, the light may appear fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, loss of appetite and other symptoms, the heavy may appear liver pain, swelling of the lower limbs and liver function abnormalities and other symptoms of toxic liver disease. Ingestion of 1 mg may cause cancer, equivalent to 1 ton of grain in only 1 grain of dry sesame seeds large aflatoxin. A one-time intake of 20 mg can be fatal. Such a highly toxic substance, where are hidden 1, overnight meals Some elders believe that leftovers have nothing to do with leftovers, the next day a hot as usual to eat. I do not know, overnight meals are most likely to produce aflatoxin! Suggestions: cooking, how much to eat, how much to do, it is best to eat the same day, do not leave leftovers. 2, long-soaked fungus Wood fungus contains a lot of protein and fiber, itself is no toxin. After long soaking, it may deteriorate to produce similar biotoxins or breed pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. Suggestion: Usually, as long as you pay attention to the soaking time and method, you don’t have to worry about eating fungus poisoning, and it is best to finish eating fungus on the same day of soaking. If you soak more, you can soak the fungus, dry it and then save it. 3, nuts Parents like to buy their children one of the most food, is peanuts, melon seeds, hazelnuts, pine nuts and other nuts. Slight yellowing or even black, bitter taste, wrinkled skin discoloration, it is likely to have been contaminated by aflatoxin. Suggestions: parents should remind their children to eat bitter melon seeds or tasteless nuts, be sure to rinse your mouth with water. Buy less each time, do not “store” to avoid mold. If you find a peanut is bad, the bowl of peanut rice, or a bag of peanut rice stored have to be thrown away. 4, grains corn, barley, wheat, beans, etc. Where the surface of yellow-green mold or broken, crumpled, discolored, spoiled grains are likely to be contaminated with aflatoxin, should be carefully selected before consumption, remove the moldy grain. Suggestions: directly without panning grain try to buy the recent survival, do not buy too much at once. If there is mold and do not want to throw away, scrubbed with warm water 3-4 times, or cooked in a pressure cooker, can destroy part of the aflatoxin. 5, grain and oil products peanut oil, corn oil manufacturers who do not strictly pick raw materials, the use of moldy peanuts, rapeseed, corn and other edible oil production, or the lack of refining process or process control, may cause aflatoxin exceeds the standard. Suggestion: After cooking oil such as peanut oil is poured into a pot and heated, a small amount of salt is added and stirred for 10-20 seconds, which basically eliminates most of the aflatoxin in the cooking oil. Salt neutralizes and degrades 95% of aflatoxin. 6, not washed chopsticks Chopsticks themselves do not grow aflatoxin, but we usually use chopsticks to eat peanuts, corn and other starchy food, chopsticks seams are most likely to hide starch, one way or another mold, aflatoxin is hidden inside. Suggestion: The best choice is iron chopsticks, which are difficult to crack and will not have food residues. Usually when washing chopsticks, remember to soak them first to soften the food residue on them so that they can be easily cleaned off. 7., cutting boards Cutting boards are mixed with a variety of bacteria, residual food is easy to spoil, it is possible to produce aflatoxin. It is best to prepare two cutting boards, raw and cooked food separately. After each use of the board, you should use a knife to scrape the residue on the board surface, and sprinkle a layer of salt or vinegar on the board surface every 6 to 7 days, which can sterilize and prevent the board from drying out and cracking. Suggestion: Parents give their children more green leafy vegetables, which can make part of the aflatoxin that is usually accidentally eaten ineffective. Because the anti-cancer mechanism of chlorophyll may be because it can significantly reduce the absorption rate of aflatoxin, thus inhibiting the additive effect of aflatoxin on liver DNA. Therefore, as the saying goes, “disease enters through the mouth”, whether it is eaten or touched with the hands. Parents must remind their children to wash and dry their hands regularly and pay attention to the cleanliness of food.
