What are the disadvantages of eating frozen meat for babies, and what are the effects of eating froz

With the increase of the baby's age, breast milk and milk powder can no longer fully supply the nutrients needed by the baby's body, so parents need to increase complementary food for the baby. In daily food, meat, eggs and milk are relatively rich in nutrition, so you can increase the baby in moderation, so is it okay to give the baby frozen meat?

First of all, it depends on the age of the baby, the baby before 4 months is too young and has a particularly poor digestive function, so you can't eat other foods except breast milk and milk powder; Babies from 4 months to half a year old can eat food other than breast milk and milk powder, and there is also a process of adding food, from liquid food to semi-liquid food, and then to solid food, and can not eat frozen meat directly.

Secondly, for the baby who is a little older, when parents add meat to the baby, it is best to be as fresh as possible, and the remaining meat can be frozen in the refrigerator if you can't finish it at one time, but it is not recommended to take too long, generally two to three days, after a long time, such meat will lose nutrients, and at the same time it should be thawed naturally, and less vinegar will be thawed in water to preserve nutrition.

Finally, when giving the baby frozen meat, we must pay attention to the way of processing and maturity, the frozen meat must be completely thawed, and then feed the baby after the processing is fully cooked, otherwise it may cause physical discomfort, causing the baby to have indigestion and even diarrhea, which will outweigh the losses.

There is no harm. Frozen meat refers to the slaughtered livestock and poultry meat, after pre-cooling, frozen below minus 18, so that the deep temperature reaches minus 6 below the meat. Although frozen meat is safe to eat because it has fewer bacteria, it needs to be thawed before eating.

In ordinary life, people like to buy a large amount of meat and store it in the refrigerator to avoid going back and forth to the vegetable market many times, which is convenient and trouble-free. However, it is also common for people to leave meat in the corner of the refrigerator and only notice it much later. Eating meat that has been frozen for too long not only has a poor taste and loss of umami, but also leads to diseases and is not beneficial to human health.

So, what are the consequences of eating frozen meat for a long time? How should meat be properly stored in the refrigerator?

The dangers of eating frozen meat.

1. Nutrient loss accelerates aging.

The longer the meat is stored in the freezer, the greater the loss of vitamins, especially B vitamins. In addition, the freezer cannot completely prevent the oxidation of fats and proteins, and meat will slowly produce fat oxidation products that accelerate the aging of the human body.

2. Gastrointestinal discomfort and reduce immunity.

Expired long-frozen meat contains many bacteria, and even contains microscopic parasites, long-term consumption will reduce the body's immunity, cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal diseases, and enzymes and various nitrites can cause cancer.

How to properly store meat in the refrigerator.

1. Consume as soon as possible.

Whether it is fresh meat or frozen meat, the meat stored in the refrigerator must be ***. It is best to eat the frozen meat bought within 1 month, the cold fresh meat is best eaten within 3 days in a refrigerated environment, and the hot fresh meat without any refrigeration should be eaten on the same day.

2. Cut the fresh meat.

Instead of putting the whole piece of fresh meat in the refrigerator, cut the meat into portions and put them in a plastic bag, label them with the date, and store them in the refrigerator. This not only makes it easier to thaw, but also increases the freezing speed of the meat and reduces the growth of bacteria.

3. Classify food.

Adhere to the principle of "cooked food on top, raw food on top". The temperature on the upper floor of the refrigerator is the most stable, and leftovers, drinks, instant food, etc. can be stored here; The temperature in the lower level of the refrigerator room is low, and the meat that is refrigerated with acid is discharged, and the semi-thawed meat, fish and shrimp should be placed here.

4. Rapid freezing and slow thawing.

Meat should be carefully washed before freezing to remove bacteria from the surface. When you want to eat, you should take it out in advance and let it melt slowly at room temperature, instead of using hot boiled water to accelerate the melting, otherwise the frozen meat juice formed between the meat cells and meat fibers will turn into liquid and flow out of the meat tissue, resulting in poor taste and nutrient loss.

5. Do not freeze and thaw repeatedly.

Avoid refreezing after thawing meat, as repeated freezing and thawing will not only cause the meat to lose nutrients and taste, but also promote the reproduction of bacteria. Salmonella, for example, can be inhibited in the refrigerator, but when it is returned to room temperature, it will multiply in sufficient quantities within two hours. If the meat in the refrigerator is sticky, the color changes, the smell is foul, and the mildew appears, it should be discarded immediately.

It is best not to freeze fresh meat for more than 1 month.

Meat has a shelf life of 10-12 months under -18 conditions. However, due to the different ways of handling meat and freezing conditions, the shelf life of frozen meat varies greatly.

Therefore, it is recommended that fresh meat should not be frozen for more than 1 month, and the maximum is 3 months.

What's more, household refrigerators generally cannot reach the freezing temperature and effect of cold storage, and frozen meat will still slowly deteriorate when placed in the freezer for a long time.

Because pork freezes for a long time. Fresh pork tastes better, and frozen pork tastes a little worse than fresh pork.

It is also possible that there is a problem with the pork itself, it is not fresh when you buy it, or even dead pork, such pork is resolutely not edible, and you should also pay attention to buying ruddy pork when buying it in the future, and use it in time after buying it, if you don't eat it immediately, put it in the refrigerator at the end.

The value of pork.

Pork is rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, iron, phosphorus and other nutrients. Pork is the main non-staple food in daily life, which has the functions of replenishing deficiency and strengthening the body, nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, and enriching the skin and skin. Those who are weak after illness, have postpartum blood deficiency, and have a yellow face can be used as nutritional tonic products.

If it has been frozen, the kind that has not been melted and then frozen, there is no harm, but if there is a peculiar smell, the kind of loose meat is broken, and it is not edible, which will affect the absorption of the stomach and intestines, and lead to accidental ingestion of bacteria.

Discoloration, taste, loss of fragrance, when it is not fresh, it tastes good, and the nutritional value will be reduced.

If the meat is frozen for a long time, it will be unnutritious and the taste will not be very good.

Frozen meat generally refers to the slaughtered livestock and poultry meat, which is frozen below minus 18, and it is commonly known as "zombie meat" after being frozen for a long time, but it is difficult for us to distinguish the freezing time, so it is possible to buy this kind of meat on the market, so is there any harm to the body if you eat too much of this meat.
