What to do if the bugs from the prunes get in your stomach

Worms from prunes generally have no adverse effects on the body when ingested. The bugs in prunes are fruit fly larvae, and the development of the bug from egg to larva takes place inside the prune, which itself is relatively clean and basically not exposed to other bacteria. Secondly, fruit fly larvae cannot survive in an environment of more than 36℃. After being eaten into the stomach, they die quickly at a body temperature of 37℃, and can also be killed by stomach acid when they enter the stomach. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the effects on the body. If you are very concerned about the bugs inside the prunes, soak the prunes in salt water for about 10 minutes before eating, and the larvae will leave the prunes and float in the water. After that, rinse it with water and you can eat a worm-free prune. Seek medical advice if you are uncomfortable.
