Are vegetables and fruits clean with tap water? Can you drink juicing?

Simple, clear and straightforward: wash clean, you can drink.

To analyze this question in detail, we need to consider first: What does "washing" of vegetables and fruits mean?

Tap water can easily wash away dust and dirt.

Pesticide residues, tap water cleaning is also the most recommended effective method. Other additives such as acid, alkali, detergent, vegetable and fruit detergent, and rice washing water do not necessarily have a better effect, and more water is needed to rinse to avoid residues. Vegetables and fruits are rinsed under running water for 30 seconds, and with scrubbing, pesticide residues can be basically removed.

As for bacteria, a layer of wax naturally occurs on the surface of vegetables and fruits, which is not a good environment for bacteria to grow. After washing with tap water, a considerable part can be removed. As long as it is not heavily contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, there is generally no problem.

Secondly, there are many concerns: is the residual tap water clean?

Tap water is drinking water that has been tested for drinking water, sterilized and has maintained its bacteriostatic ability.

Conservatively speaking: tap water in large and medium-sized cities generally meets the standards and can be drunk directly. Even if there is so-called "secondary pollution", the amount of water left is limited, and it is not a big deal.

As for the running water in small towns, you need to judge for yourself.

Washed vegetables and fruits can be eaten, and the juice can be eaten naturally.

Thank you for having me. The question raised by Brother Ren is not big but very important, because everyone eats vegetables and fruits every day in daily life, and there is a problem of cleaning vegetables and fruits, of course, raw food juice is particularly important.

Especially in the current large-scale production of vegetables and fruits, the insecticides and viruses in the process of group production, the application of insecticides and antibacterial agents, and even the use of various hormones (growth regulators) in order to increase the yield of fruits and vegetables are innumerable. It's dangerous to just rinse with tap water and want to juice and drink. Because raw food is likely to eat parasite eggs.

In addition, many agents are not water-soluble, but oily, which are hit on the surface of foliar fruits to prevent rain, and have strong adhesion. Cool water rinsing can only remove dust. If you want to drink juice, I think that peeling fruits and vegetables with boiling water, although a lot of nutrients are lost, but it will not eat harmful substances, although it is not in a meal and a half, but the quantity changes to the qualitative change This truth is clear to anyone!

Experience accumulation is great, but toxin accumulation is terrifying!

With the improvement of people's living standards, everyone can drink tap water, although tap water has brought a lot of convenience to our lives, but everyone is still worried about the safety of tap water. Regarding the problem of tap water, many people have questions, tap water cannot be drunk directly, why can fruits washed with tap water be eaten directly? There are different views and interpretations on this issue.

First, in fact, now the country's requirements for water quality is still very strict, tap water in the production process will be treated routinely and deeply, the quality of China's drinking water is up to standard, is safe, theoretically tap water can be directly drunk, even so, it is not recommended that everyone drink raw water, it is best to boil it and then drink.

Second, the production of tap water is in line with drinking standards, but this does not mean that it is standard drinking water, because tap water may be affected by many factors, such as the old water pipes, rust and reserve reservoirs.

Failure to clean, perennial non-disinfection, etc., will lead to secondary pollution of tap water, and contaminated tap water will naturally cause certain harm to the human body.

3. Washing fruits with tap water can be eaten directly, because the water is flowing when washing fruits, and pesticide residues on fruits will be washed away with flowing water. Maybe you will worry about some harmful substances in the tap water remaining on the surface of the fruit to eat unhealthy, on this problem, you can ignore, the tap water has imitation harmful substances, compared with pesticide residues is very little, after washing, as long as the excess tap water is wiped off, the surface of the harmful substances is less, therefore, the fruit washed with tap water can be eaten with confidence.

Although tap water can be drunk directly, Yunla may have some adverse reactions due to the different constitutions of each person.

Therefore, it is better to boil tap water before drinking. In life, if you find that the water quality has unknown debris or bad taste, peculiar smell, etc., you should decisively give up drinking water, after the water is polluted twice, there will be a lot of harmful substances, and drinking will bring serious harm to the human body.

Of course, you can eat it, because washing the fruit with empty tap water can rot to clean the bacteria and pesticides on the fruit, but when washing, you should also apply some professional detergent before starving, which is cleaner.

You can eat it, and washing the fruit with water can clean the pesticide residues on the surface of the fruit, which will be more healthy and safe.

Fruits washed in tap water cannot be eaten directly, there may be pesticide residues in them, and there will be a large number of bacteria.

Washing produce is one of those habits that some people follow religiously while others dismiss it entirely. If you're struggling to find motivation to cook in the first place, you probably fall into the latter category. But washing fruits and vegetables at home isn't just an outdated precaution:

As Popular Mechanics reports, rinsing thoroughly can mean the difference between a meal that nourishes you and one that makes you sick.

Agricultural produce is a common vector of norovirus, a foodborne viral infection that causes symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. There's no way to know if your lettuce was contaminated with harmful bacteria before it entered your plate, but washing it with regular tap water can really make it safer to eat. According to USA Today, cleaning produce is effective enough to remove 90% of pathogens that remain on produce during planting, harvesting, and transportation.

Rinsing is also a great way to remove any visible substances that you don't want to eat, such as grit and dirt.

Cleaning fruits and vegetables is definitely better than eating them straight from the crisper drawer, but be aware that this is not a foolproof way to avoid food poisoning. Water does not remove all microorganisms from the surface of food, and even a very thorough rinse is not enough to make produce contaminated with potentially deadly bacteria such as E. coli safe to eat. But that doesn't mean the risks outweigh the benefits of incorporating produce into your diet.

If you have a bunch of vegetables that need to be prepared for dinner, the best way to make them safer to eat is to rinse them in cold water and rub them in a bowl of water, starting with the cleanest and working your way up to the dirtier produce. Give it one last rinse before moving all the food to the cutting board. Peeling the outer skin of produce as much as possible and cooking it is another effective way to kill or remove stubborn bacteria.

Fruits and vegetables are rich in nutrients and are essential for human health. In addition, the fruits and vegetables are delicious, and we all like to eat them. But fruits and vegetables need to be washed, and some even have to be processed before they can be eaten.

Students in rural areas have unique conditions for eating fruits and vegetables. Most of their villages have vegetable gardens or orchards, and some of their classmates grow fruit trees and vegetables in their own homes. Take it off when you want to eat it, and have a delicious meal.

It didn't even occur to me to take a wash.

So, why should the fruit be washed before it can be eaten? Here's a reason: First of all, pesticides are now indispensable for growing fruits and vegetables.

The residual toxicity of pesticides will remain on the skin of fruits and vegetables, and if you eat them without washing, the pesticides will inevitably enter the body and cause harm to the body. The second reason is that fruits and vegetables themselves are rich in nutrients, which are not only beneficial to the human body, but also very fond of microorganisms. Therefore, there are many microscopic inclusions on the surface of fruits and vegetables, which contain more yeasts and bacteria.

Some vegetables such as carrots and radishes grow directly in the soil, and fertilizers such as farm manure and human manure are often applied during the planting process, so bacteria will directly attach to the skin of the vegetables. If it is pulled out of the ground and eaten directly without washing, it will cause diseases such as dysentery. Therefore, when eating fruits and vegetables, you must wash them before eating, and don't just eat raw melons and fruits for a momentary pleasure and cause unnecessary trouble.

The juice squeezed out without water is more viscous, and it is more diluted with water, depending on personal preference.

The process of squeezing juice:

1. Nutritional reconstruction: fruit juice contains a large number of vitamins, minerals and trace elements, which can quickly promote the production of enzymes in the body;

2. Concentrated nutrients: can balance the basic physiological processes and make detoxification more effective;

3. Balance pH: help establish the acid-base balance in the blood in the body, and remove corrosive wastes from the organs;

4. Zen source provides mineral nutrients: the rich minerals in the juice restore the balance of biochemical substances and amino acids in blood circulation, cells, tissues and organs;

5. Accelerate detoxification in the body: raw juice.

China's national standards for drinking water not only stipulate the legal limit of drinking water, but also stipulate the legal code of conduct for the production of centralized water supply units. In the national standard for drinking water, the requirements for water quality are still very strict.

As can be seen from the above table, the domestic drinking water standards revised in 2006 are very strict in China, which is not only much higher than the standards set by the World Health Organization (WHO), but also comparable to or even higher than the standards of other developed countries in the world.

Theoretically, tap water in China can be drunk without any problems, but the actual situation is often more complicated.

Conveyance of tap water.

Tap water is transported to the home through the city's municipal pipe network, and the water supply pipes are intertwined in the city's underground disk, and it is necessary to pass a long distance from the water plant to the user end of the pipe network. Therefore, the first and most important question is the age of the water, which is the time that the water is kept in the water supply network, of course, the fresher the better. You should have such a life experience, when we turn on a faucet in our home when it is not used often, the water that flows out is rusty, this kind of water is not fresh water, and we need to put the water for a period of time before using it.

Secondly, the issue of water quality is also very important. Often, the water quality at the outlet end of the waterworks is in line with the national standard, but after a long municipal pipeline, the water quality will generally decline when it reaches the user end. The pipes of the municipal pipe network are usually used for decades, and the situation of the inner wall of the pipeline is usually shown in the following figure due to the phenomenon of pipeline leakage pollution, corrosion, and settlement.

Another point is the residual chemicals in the water produced by the waterworks. Usually, after the water plant takes water from the water source, it has to go through four processes: coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection. The coagulation process requires the use of coagulants, and the disinfection process requires the use of chlorine.

Therefore, the water flowing from the faucet in our home is made of residual chlorine, although the residual chlorine is also required by the national standard, but we ordinary people do not have professional equipment to measure whether the tap water quality at home is up to standard.

The situation with tap water in the home is more complex than theoretical, as there are many factors that affect water quality. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone do not drink raw water and boil it before drinking. (A small amount of raw water, like washing fruit, will not cause any problems.) ）

Because there is very little tap water in eating fruits after washing fruits, if you drink water, you have to drink a very large amount, so it is better to boil and drink.
