Due to their solanine content, they have a strong irritant effect on the gastrointestinal mucosa and a paralyzing effect on the central nervous system. They can cause symptoms such as vomiting, dizziness, and salivation. The dangers are greater when eaten raw. Rootless Bean Sprouts:
The majority of rootless bean sprouts sold on the market are grown using hormones and chemical fertilizers. Under the action of intestinal bacteria, these nitrogen-containing compounds can be converted into nitrosamines. Long-term consumption may lead to stomach cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, and other diseases. Undercooked Kidney Beans:
Eating undercooked kidney beans, or green-colored green beans, can lead to poisoning, causing dizziness and vomiting. In severe cases, it can even be fatal. Sprouted and Greened Potatoes:
Like green tomatoes, these potatoes contain solanine and should not be eaten. Fresh Daylilies:
Although fresh, fresh daylilies from the market contain colchicine. After entering the human body, it is oxidized and can cause poisoning symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. If the fresh daylilies are soaked in water for a long time to dissolve the colchicine, the above symptoms will not occur. Discolored Seaweed:
If the seaweed turns bluish-purple after being soaked in cold water, it indicates that the vegetable was contaminated by toxic substances before it was dried and packaged. This type of seaweed is harmful to the human body and should not be eaten.
