Which foods are bad for your health if you eat too much?

Sunflower seed 1

Because of its rapid growth, sunflower can easily absorb heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and nickel in soil, which can effectively reduce heavy metal pollution in soil and has the ability to purify the environment. However, eating these heavy metals is harmful to health. Eating sunflower seeds will consume a lot of choline, hinder fat metabolism in the body, lead to a large amount of fat accumulation in the liver, and seriously affect the function of liver cells. At the same time, peanuts, almonds, cashews and pistachios, including sunflower seeds, are all nut foods. Eating a small handful every day is good for health. In particular, nuts are prone to oxidative rancidity and mildew. If you eat something bitter or musty, you must spit it out immediately and rinse your mouth. Aflatoxin in rotten nuts is a proven strong carcinogen and should be avoided as much as possible.

2. Chewing gum

Aspartame, a sugar substitute in chewing gum, is also a carcinogen. So don't eat too much. Doctors recommend that you don't chew gum for more than 20 minutes, because chewing too much will cause oral muscle strain.

3, monosodium glutamate

Half of monosodium glutamate is L- glutamate which is beneficial to the body, but the other half is D- glutamate which cannot be used by the body and becomes a free radical harmful to the body. The intake of monosodium glutamate per person per day should not exceed 6 grams. Excessive intake will increase the content of glutamic acid and sodium in blood, reduce the utilization rate of calcium and magnesium, and may lead to calcium deficiency and affect the strength of teeth and bones. It can also cause short-term headaches, palpitations, nausea and other symptoms, and also have adverse effects on the human reproductive system.

4. Pig liver

Every kilogram of pig liver contains more than 400 mg of cholesterol. Eating too much cholesterol can lead to arteriosclerosis. Obese, overweight and high cholesterol people should try not to eat. At the same time, the liver is a detoxification organ, which will accumulate a lot of metabolic poisons such as aflatoxin, antibiotics and sleeping pills, so it is not advisable to eat more pig liver. For people with anemia, you can eat pig liver and pay attention to a small amount of it many times.

5. Fried dough sticks, rice noodles, rice noodles and vermicelli.

Alum (potassium aluminum sulfate) must be added in the production process. Eating these things often can easily lead to anemia and osteoporosis. At the same time, there is too much aluminum in the body to be excreted from the kidneys, which is toxic to the brain and nerve cells, and even leads to Alzheimer's disease. In addition, the oil repeatedly used in fried fritters is harmful to health due to excessive oxidation. Be careful not to eat it every day, but once a week at most.

6. Pickled vegetables and dried radishes

Eating pickles for a long time will cause sodium and mercury to stay in the body, thus increasing the chance of heart disease. In addition, it also contains ammonium nitrite or some unscrupulous workers use formalin to prevent corrosion, which are carcinogens and easy to induce cancer. Pickled vegetables and pickles have different characteristics due to different preparation methods and different additives. But almost all pickles and pickles contain nitrite, which is a carcinogen.

7. Bottled juice drinks

Most sweet drinks are mixed with sugar and essence. If you can taste the sweetness in a 500 ml bottle of sweet drink, you should basically put 14- 15 cubes of sugar. Most of these sweet drinks are "deficiency heat", and there are almost no other nutrients except sugar, and the human body needs to consume a lot of vitamins B and C when metabolizing sugar.

8. preserved eggs

Preserved eggs contain a certain amount of lead, which can lead to lead poisoning if eaten frequently. The manifestations of lead poisoning are insomnia, anemia, hyperactivity and mental retardation. Be careful not to eat too many times, not more than once a week, and buy branded packaging products through formal channels.

9.stinky tofu

Stinky tofu is easy to be contaminated by microorganisms during fermentation, and the black part of stinky tofu often gathers the residues of heavy metals and toxic substances, which is easy to cause cancer; The oil used to make stinky tofu is also used repeatedly and is easy to be over-oxidized. It also contains a lot of volatile basic nitrogen and hydrogen sulfide, which is decomposed by protein and is harmful to human body.

10 popcorn

The converter for making popcorn contains lead. When heated at high pressure, a certain amount of lead in the pot will melt, and some lead will be converted into steam and smoke, which will pollute the raw materials, especially at the last moment of "explosion". The lead content in popcorn is as high as 10 mg /500 g, which is harmful to human hematopoietic system, nervous system and digestive system. If you eat too much, you may get popcorn lung.
