What harm does pesticide residue on vegetables do to children and how to prevent it?

Pesticide residues in vegetables do great harm to human body, especially to developing teenagers and children, which directly affects the development of brain and various organs. If vegetable residue is a highly toxic pesticide, it will kill the brain cells of the poisoned person, and even lead to disability, cancer and even death in severe cases. In recent years, the Ministry of Agriculture has formulated relevant regulations on the production and sale of pesticides. In particular, the requirements for the use of vegetable pesticides are more stringent. There is no need to panic.

In order to reduce the harm of pesticide residues in vegetables to everyone, please pay attention to the following six items when going to the supermarket to buy food:

1: Choose vegetables (such as lettuce, oil wheat, amaranth, pickled cabbage, spinach, gourd, watermelon, pumpkin, eggplant, etc.) that are not easy to grow insects. ).

2. Buy less out-of-season vegetables and eat less insect-prone vegetables (cowpeas, beans, green beans, cold melons, Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, Shanghai green, onions, etc. ).

3. Look at the surface of vegetables. If the leaves are too dark, too bright (possibly sprayed with coloring agent) and have no moth-eaten traces (especially the moth-eaten vegetables have no moth-eaten traces, which are most likely to be used continuously during the growth process), you should be careful.

4. Touch the surface of the vegetable to see if it fades. If possible, it is pesticide residue powder.

5. Smell the surface of vegetables for odor or foul smell. Normal vegetables give off a fresh smell. If there is any peculiar smell or odor, it can be picked before the safety period after spraying.

6. Buy vegetables and soak them in water or salt water for 30-60 minutes.

If you grow vegetables in your own vegetable fields, you should also choose safe and environmentally friendly biological pesticides, such as "Huangtong", "Kangkuan" and "Puzun" for killing filariasis and "Jiajing", "Kane" and "Regent" for treating downy mildew, epidemic disease, leaf spot and angular spot.

With the enhancement of people's awareness of food safety and special attention to vegetable safety, many citizens grow vegetables on the balcony to take care of their own safety and care for the health of their families, and immediately grow vegetables on the balcony.
