The truth behind \”Lychees cause death\” Yesterday, the entire circle of friends was flooded with \”lychees\”! Eating lychees on an empty stomach can lead to death of children! Eating lychees can easily lead to lychee disease! Children and the elderly should not eat more than 5 lychees at a time! … Seeing that it is the season for eating lychees recently, many people are panicking. Many mothers around me ask me: Is this true or false? Can I still feed it to my child? My child just ate it, is it okay? Hold on, don\’t panic! Lychee disease does exist, but it is far from as crazy as the rumors in the circle of friends: \”Children will die if they eat lychees on an empty stomach.\” These \”unconditional rumors\” are just like \”discussing toxicity regardless of dose\”, which is a complete hooliganism. \”Lychee disease\” comes out almost every year. The case mentioned – \”A 7-year-old child fell into coma after eating lychees on an empty stomach\” is true, but it was an incident last year. CCTV once tracked this report: A boy in Guangdong was hungry and thirsty after returning home. He happened to see fresh lychees and ate more than 20 of them. As a result, during dinner, the boy suddenly sweated on his forehead and turned pale. He fainted at the dinner table after taking two bites of rice. The parents were so frightened that they rushed to the hospital, where they were later diagnosed with hypoglycemia. Fortunately, due to prompt medical treatment and timely treatment, the child was finally out of danger. As scary as it may seem, litchi disease does not necessarily mean the death of a child. Regarding the causes of lychee disease, some studies believe that lychees contain two toxins. The content is high in immature lychees, while the content in mature lychees is relatively low. This toxin blocks the formation of glucose in the body, causing hypoglycemic STDs. Children, in particular, have poor body self-regulation abilities and are the most susceptible to falling prey. Then the child can’t eat lychees? Of course not, lychees are rich in nutrients, but when eating them for children, you must pay attention to the following methods: 1. Never choose immature lychees. 2. Never let your children eat on an empty stomach. 3. Just take a few pills at a time, don’t “enough” at one time. 4. Once you find that your child is unconscious after eating too much, you must take her to the hospital quickly. In fact, not only lychees, but also any food is not recommended for children to eat \”extensively\” or \”eat indiscriminately\”. Especially in summer, our parents need to worry about everything we eat. The most common food hazard in summer is nuts, with hidden toxicity. Sweet and crispy nuts have always been children\’s favorite, but they always cause problems. There were news reports a few days ago that in just half a month, nine children had accidents one after another. The culprit is the all-too-common peanut. However, this time I was not \”choked\”, but \”poisoned\”. According to reports, these children accidentally ate peanuts soaked in pesticides at home and used for sowing seeds. Doctors said that if some children eat too much, they will vomit, have abdominal pain, and even suffer from respiratory depression, which is life-threatening. Some people say that my family does not farm and does not use pesticides, so it has nothing to do with me. But in fact, in such a rainy and humid summer, peanuts, melon seeds, pine nuts and other nuts have a safety hazard that is difficult to escape – Aspergillus aflatoxin. Therefore, for us, whether it is to prevent children from choking or eating by mistake, we must take good care of the nuts at home. I often tell my children’s grandma to keep nuts in a dry place. FollowAs the child grows up and becomes more and more active, try to place it in a place where it is difficult for her to find it. Since my daughter was two years old, I have tried to make an agreement with her that when she wants to eat, she can tell her mother. Don\’t underestimate children\’s natural foodie nature, and don\’t overestimate children\’s safety awareness and identification ability, so that accidents can be prevented. Don’t “pick” food on the roadside. This morning, I saw a piece of news on Weibo: As the mangoes grown on both sides of the road gradually mature, many people come to pick them and eat them with their children. But free does not necessarily mean safe. Dr. Chen from the 175th Hospital of the People\’s Liberation Army said that mangoes on the roadside may absorb some harmful substances. If children pick them up and eat them, in severe cases, it will affect their intellectual development and slow their growth and development. This is what it means to be greedy for petty gains and suffer big losses. Not just mangoes, there are \”green fruits\” on the roadside in many places. My best friend asked me for help two days ago: her mother-in-law came from her hometown to help her take care of her children. She felt that the fruits and vegetables in the city were too expensive, so she once picked a lot of pomegranates and persimmons at the edge of the park and brought them back for her children to eat. She couldn\’t bear to blame the old man, but she was very anxious. Indeed, there are many fruits on the roadside and in parks, but for ornamental purposes, a lot of pesticides are often applied on them, resulting in excessive pesticide residues. If the child eats it, it will do all harm but no good. When we don’t want to pick them ourselves, we must tell the elderly at home not to “pick” wild fruits on the roadside. Tropical fruits are prone to allergies. A while ago, the mother group was in shock. The little cat mother first posted a \”horrible\” photo: the child had just entered kindergarten. She originally thought she was infected with some virus. But upon inspection, all indicators of the child were normal. It took a lot of effort to find out later that the child was actually allergic to pineapple. Unexpectedly, this resonated with a group of mothers. Many children are allergic to some tropical fruits, such as dragon fruit, mango, kiwi… The children will develop symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting, and rash after eating them. Not every child is blessed with these delicious fruits. Especially if it is not cooked thoroughly, the risk of causing allergies in children is higher. Therefore, we must pay attention: select ripe fruits, try a small amount when giving them to children for the first time, and observe them carefully for two days. Make sure the child is not allergic before continuing to feed the child. If your child\’s allergy symptoms are mild, there is no need to worry. Generally speaking, if the allergen is isolated, the child will recover in 2-3 days. But if your child has severe itching and severe symptoms, you must see a doctor and follow the doctor\’s advice to apply topical or oral allergy medication. Food itself is not sinful, but only if we help our children eat it right. Avoid eating meat dishes that have been cooked overnight in summer. It is hot in summer, as bacteria on food multiply faster than in other seasons. I have a colleague who was cheated by overnight food. She is pressed for time in the morning and her children are busy, so she often cooks meals at night and feeds them to her children the next morning. But after eating breakfast two days ago, the child started to vomit and have diarrhea. She regretted it so much that her intestines turned blue. Regardless of whether it is a cold dish or a hot dish, after overnight, not only bacteria will grow, but also nitrite will easily be produced. And heating cannot completely destroy bacterial toxins. So in summer mornings, it must be cooked and eaten right away.But don’t feed your children overnight meat and vegetables just to save trouble. Liangpi and cold noodles require side dishes. The weather is hot and many children don’t like to eat, but they only have a special liking for Liangpi and cold noodles. My neighbor Dongdong likes to pester his grandfather after school and buys cold noodles and cold noodles for dinner almost every day. In fact, there is nothing wrong with eating occasionally, but the most fearful thing is \”eating often\”. Fan Zhihong, a doctor of food science, once pointed out that if you use jelly, cold skin, cold noodles and other foods as staple food for a long time in summer, and do not pay attention to supplementing protein and vitamins from other foods, protein malnutrition and severe vitamin deficiency will inevitably occur. Condition. Children may become tired, have reduced resistance, or even develop edema, and their growth and development will also be significantly affected. Therefore, when our children eat cold skin, we must pair them with a variety of vegetables and meat. Although Liangpi is refreshing, don’t be “obsessed” with it! There are 10 children with food that is easy to choke, such as fruit pits, and 9 of them love to eat cherries. Cherries are high in iron, rich in vitamin C, and taste good, so they are naturally loved by parents. But it should be noted that many children swallow the dates wholeheartedly when eating. If they don\’t pay attention, they swallow the kernels. If it is okay to swallow, the core will usually be excreted with the stool. The scary thing is that the child jumped up and down while eating and choked. Be careful not only with cherries, but also with the pits of longan, apricots and other fruits. Therefore, when the child does not spit out the core, we need to help the child remove it. When the children are older, we need to remind them more: Never chase or fight when eating. Protect our snack food. I remember when I was a child, my favorite was summer, because there were the most delicious things in summer. But now I know how much white hair my mother had to grow in order for me to spend every summer safely. The world of foodies is not easy, and raising a healthy and happy foodie takes half a lifetime of effort. There are dangers in this world, but the world is still wonderful. I have also been anxious and worried, but watching this little girl grow up day by day, I suddenly felt that my whole body was full of strength. There\’s nothing a hug can\’t fix, and if so, give it two. My child, this is a summer full of \”accidents\”. There may be traps and mud ahead, but I will definitely accompany you, upgrade and fight monsters, and grow stubbornly. Because your peace is my biggest dream.
