Can you eat industrial salt, is there industrial salt?

Absolutely not to eat, industrial salt is poisonous, it will eat dead people, what industrial salt to eat if you have nothing to eat, no edible salt? The content of industrial salts in metal elements is very high!

Since the main ingredient of industrial salt and edible salt is sodium chloride, there is no big difference in taste, and salt is used as a condiment in cooking, and the use of salt is also limited, so the harm of industrial salt to the human body is mostly a chronic process, such as industrial salt may contain lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium and nitrite and other impurities, and the long-term accumulation of heavy metals may cause dizziness, disease, myocardial injury, neuritis, multi-organ dysfunction, muscle spasm, abdominal pain, vomiting, bone pain, nephritis, and even cancer, teratogenicity. After a large amount of nitrite enters the human body, it can make the oxygen-carrying low hemohemoglobin in the body become methemoglobin. As soon as methemoglobin encounters oxygen, it binds firmly and is not easily separated.

In this way, the body's tissues throughout the body are starved of oxygen. When the human body ingests nitrite, it can cause acute poisoning, and 3 grams can kill people. Once the human body is poisoned, it will become ill in ten minutes, and there will be dizziness, head swelling, tinnitus, general weakness, numbness in the hands and feet, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, dyspnea and other symptoms, and convulsions and coma in severe cases.

Of course, the consumption of industrial salt alone is not enough for acute nitrite poisoning.

Some people may have such questions, in this ** fake salt incident, more than 20,000 tons of fake salt have been produced one after another, and I have not heard reports of consumers getting sick and dying because of eating fake salt, is industrial salt safe? Here, I would like to say that because most of these fake salts are sold to food processing enterprises or farmers in remote areas, salt is a seasoning effect in cooking, and the amount of one-time intake is limited, so it does not cause a wide range of toxic effects on the human body, or even if the body is ill and may not be associated with edible salt due to sporadic occurrence, it is not known to everyone, but this does not mean that industrial salt is safe, if food safety is only based on eating people without death or short-term no impact as the standard, Then the standard of food safety is inevitably too low. The definition of food safety is that the food is non-toxic, harmless, meets the due nutritional requirements, and does not cause any acute, subacute or chronic harm to human health.

We should have a zero-tolerance attitude towards any food that does not comply with China's national regulations, and the state should also intensify its crackdown to effectively protect our consumers from acute, subacute or chronic harm caused by substandard food to our health.

Can't eat it, long-term consumption of industrial salt will cause harm to the body!

Trouble, thanks!

Absolutely. The so-called "industrial salt" refers to the sodium chloride crystals mainly used as chemical raw materials, which are very bulk chemical raw materials - the basis of modern chemical industry: three of the three acids and two alkalis are inseparable from him - caustic soda soda ash and hydrochloric acid, which are absolutely based on sodium chloride as direct or indirect raw materials.

However, today, even the salt used in industrial production has a sodium chloride content of more than 99%, and the appearance is crystal clear, and the quality of this "industrial salt" crushes the special salt supplied by the royal family in China 150 years ago (that is, before the introduction of modern industrial salt production methods by the Westernization Movement). The purity of edible salt is also 99% nominal, in fact, I have always suspected that the so-called edible salt and industrial salt are simply from the same production line, but on one side it is packaged into a large bag of 50 kg sack, and on the other hand it is a small package of 500g a pack.

The cost price of industrial salt is about 200 yuan tons, compared with edible salt** - an average of 5 yuan kg, there is 25 times the gross profit (excluding the cost of re-purification, packaging, small-scale transportation, etc.). Edible salt is also added to iodine, the amount of additives is 2/10,000, and the impact on the cost is almost negligible, so there is such a spread, of course there will be people who do this business.

In the raw salt, the real "toxic" substances to people, the content can be said to be negligible, basically negligible, the most important thing is: there can never be sodium nitrite. Because the production of industrial salt is nothing more than these **:

Drying sea salt, lake salt, well salt, direct mining of rock salt, raw materials are naturally occurring. Sodium nitrite is basically not stable in its natural state, and the crystalline state is fine, and it will slowly decompose itself after being dissolved in water. The sodium nitrite used in industrial production is synthesized, and it costs more than 2,000 tons, and it is not cost-effective to use it as salt.

Moreover, let's calculate the amount of poisoning: a one-time consumption of sodium nitrite in adults will trigger a toxic reaction. If it is used for industrial production salt, even if the 1% impurity is sodium nitrite, this time you have to eat 50g of table salt to cause sodium nitrite poisoning - I think you will die first.

Therefore, the so-called "industrial salt" will be poisoned as edible salt, which is nothing more than the following possibilities:

1. Misunderstanding by chance.

2. Deliberately fabricated official rumors to promote the salt monopoly - I think this is the most likely.

3. One of the major uses of sodium nitrite is to make concrete antifreeze, so it will appear in large numbers on construction sites, and the cultural level and personal quality of migrant workers in China are also very reasonable to steal and take away.

The difference between industrial salt and edible salt: 1. Industrial salt Industrial salt has a wide range of industrial uses and is one of the most basic raw materials in the chemical industry"The mother of the chemical industry"。The main products of the basic chemical industry, such as hydrochloric acid, caustic soda, soda ash, ammonium chloride, chlorine, etc., are mainly produced with industrial salt as raw materials.

Industrial salt refers to raw salt, which is divided into lake salt, well salt and sea salt, among which sea salt is relatively high in industrial value and low in edible value because seawater dissolves a variety of elements. 2. Edible salt Edible salt refers to the processed edible salt with sodium chloride as the main component obtained from seawater, underground rock (mineral) salt sediments, and natural brine (salt) water, excluding low-sodium salt. The main component of edible salt is sodium chloride (NaCl), which also contains small amounts of water and impurities, as well as other elements such as iron, phosphorus and iodine.

Not all large-grain salt is industrial salt, and edible refined salt is also processed from large-grained coarse salt.

Large particle salt is industrial salt, industrial salt refers to raw salt, raw salt is divided into lake salt, well salt and sea salt, among which because the seawater in sea salt is dissolved into a variety of elements, so the industrial value of sea salt is relatively high, and the edible value is low. The salt in life refers to the processing and extraction from seawater, salt ponds, salt wells and salt mines, and the main component is sodium chloride, which is called sea salt, pool salt, well salt and rock salt respectively.

Not all. It is recommended to buy fine salt from regular manufacturers. Industrial salt can kill a person by a few tenths of a milligram. Such as barium chloride.

Generally yes, but not absolutely.

I don't know about large grains of salt, I know coarse salt, and it is also very large, coarse salt can be eaten, but there are impurities, no iodine, and it is generally used to pickle pickles!
