In the past few days, the weather in Jiangcheng has become hotter and the atmosphere of early summer has been fading. In various markets, scallops, mussels, clams and other shellfish have become hot on the market and become the most “fresh†dishes on the table. However, this "fresh" may be hidden "toxic."
Recently, the city's disease control center issued a health reminder that after eating shellfish, if there are symptoms of limb paralysis, vomiting, diarrhea, etc., it may be shellfish toxin poisoning, need to seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and can seriously endanger life.
According to experts from the Central Health Education Division, shellfish toxins do not come from shellfish organisms themselves, but are formed after their ingestion of toxic algae by accumulation, enlargement, and transformation. Among them, paralytic shellfish poisoning is the most toxic. Once ingested, toxins are released in the body and can cause neuromuscular paralysis. Lips appear numbness, tingling sensation, stiff muscles of limbs in severe cases, and severe respiratory muscle paralysis can occur. This toxin is found in bivalve molluscs such as scallops, mussels, and oysters, and is usually found in high levels in the viscera. Conventional cooking methods cannot remove it. At present, there is no specific antidotal agent.
Experts say that there is exquisite food and can not be bulimia. Avoid large amounts of shellfish, especially wild shellfish, as much as possible; choose large-scale, regular supermarkets or markets when purchasing shellfish and other aquatic products; do not buy dead shellfish; use fresh water before feeding and During rinsing, it is necessary to remove the gut and other internal organs. It is also important that it is best not to consume soup that is cooked in shellfish. Enhance awareness of prevention, remember shellfish poisoning symptoms, as soon as possible, seek medical attention.
