Potatoes and what to eat can be poisoned? Can potatoes be poisoned if eaten raw?

A good amount of potatoes contains only 10 mg of solanine per 100 grams, while solanine can be increased by 50 times or more in green, sprouted, and rotten potatoes. Eating a very small amount of solanine may not be obvious to the human body, but if you eat 200 mg of solanine at a time (about half a tael of potatoes that have turned green and sprouted), you can get sick after 15 minutes to 3 hours. The first symptoms are itching in the mouth and throat, pain in the upper abdomen, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms.

If you eat 300 400 mg or more solanine, the symptoms will be severe, manifested as increased body temperature and repeated vomiting resulting in dehydration, as well as dilated pupils, photophobia, tinnitus, convulsions, dyspnea, blood pressure drop, and very few people can die due to respiratory paralysis. Therefore, patients with severe symptoms should be sent to the hospital as soon as possible**.

Attention must be paid to preventing the occurrence of potato solanine poisoning.

Do not eat unripe green-skinned potatoes.

The parts that have been slightly sprouted and blue on the potatoes and the rotten parts should be completely removed. If the area of the potato is large and there are many parts of the sprout, the potato should be thrown away.

After peeling, the potatoes are cut into small pieces and soaked in cold water for more than half an hour to dissolve the residual solanine in the water.

Using solanine to have the characteristics of weak alkaline, add an appropriate amount of rice vinegar when burning potatoes, and use the acidic effect of vinegar to decompose solanine, which can play a detoxifying role.

Cooking potatoes should be crispy and thorough, and the high temperature for a long time should be used to partially decompose solanine.

If there is a feeling of numbness in the mouth when eating potatoes, it indicates that the potatoes also contain more solanine, and you should stop eating them immediately to prevent poisoning.

It has been reported that if pregnant women eat too much solanine, it may cause fetal malformations, so pregnant women should be especially careful.

Potatoes with sprouts and green tomatoes, eating them at the same time can be poisonous.

If you find that the potatoes have sprouts, you should not only remove the sprouts, but also peel off the greenish parts of the potatoes that are connected to them. As for tomatoes, be careful not to buy unripe green tomatoes.

Potatoes and anything eaten together will not be poisoned. It should be noted that budded, spoiled, and green potatoes cannot be eaten, it is poisonous in itself, and it is poisoned when eaten with anything.

It is best not to eat it raw. Potatoes contain some toxic alkaloids, mainly solanine and chochomycoline, but generally after 170 years of high temperature cooking, the toxic substances will decompose. Wild potatoes are highly toxic, and solanine poisoning can cause headaches, diarrhea, convulsions, coma, and even death.

However, the toxicity of generally cultivated potatoes is very low, and there are very few incidents of potato poisoning.

Eating raw potatoes will be poisoned, potatoes are rich in starch, must be cooked, otherwise the starch grains will not break, the human body can not digest, potatoes contain a toxic protein called lectin, which can make the red blood cells in the human blood clot, people can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and in severe cases, it can lead to death.

But this substance is cooked and then eaten, the toxic protein will lose its toxicity, and it can be used with confidence, so it is not recommended that everyone eat raw potatoes, there may be serious reactions such as poisoning, and the potatoes must be cooked thoroughly before eating, then the toxic protein loses its toxicity and can be used with confidence.
