    Snails contain a lot of parasites, but they can. Generally, it takes several months to half a year from the onset of snails with insect eggs to the onset of the disease, and there are few cases of ectopic parasitism of parasites, but the probability of infection with parasites is very high when eaten raw or undercooked snails, and the diet should be avoided in the future. Snails contain a large number of parasites, but they are mainly infected with parasitic diseases when eaten raw, and if they are cooked, the parasites are killed, and they are generally not infected.

    The snail is resistant to cold and heat, the most suitable growth temperature is 25, the water temperature is lower than 15 or higher than 30, that is, stop feeding, when the water temperature is lower than 10, it will drill mud, and more than 40 will be scalded to death. Snails are miscellaneous, like nocturnal activities and feeding, and can reproduce naturally. The lifespan of snails is generally four or five years for females and two or three years for males, and the growth of snails is fastest in the first three or four months, and then gradually slows down, and basically no longer grows after 2 years.

    There are parasites in the body of the snail.

    Snails generally grow near ponds or reservoirs. If the water quality is not good, it can easily be polluted. Especially when eating, if the stool in the snail is not clean, there are many parasites in it.

    For example, field snails are the host of schistosomes. Field snails carry a large number of parasites. If the high-temperature sterilization is not sufficient, the parasite can survive in the human body after human consumption.

    When eating snails, there are some things that must be paid attention to, when doing it, the first thing to pay attention to is to try not to eat dead snails, and when eating snails, you must cook them to avoid dead snails. Parasitic infections occur. Although the snail meat is small, not every part can be eaten, and the main part to eat is a piece of harder and harder meat near the mouth of the snail, and it is best not to eat other parts.

    Introduction to snails

    Field snail refers to the mollusk of the field snail family, which belongs to the field snail family of the phylum Gastropod Foregill of the Phylum Gastropod. Field snails are found in most parts of China. Snails have high requirements for water quality and low yield.

    It can be caught in both summer and autumn. Chinese snails are common in freshwater. The snail is dioecious.

    Also, female snails are large and round, and male snails are small and long. The field snail is an ovoviviparous animal with a unique mode of reproduction.

    Both the embryonic development of the snail and the development of the young snail are done within the mother's body. Snails lay eggs in batches and breed in March-April every year. At the same time as the production of young snails, the male and female parent snails mate and fertilize, and at the same time reproduce the young snails in the mother's body.

    A female snail can produce about 100 to 150 juvenile snails throughout the year.

    Processed snails are completely safe to eat!

    Epidemiologically speaking, the parasites in snails are generally schistosomiasis, so if they are not completely sterilized, they can easily lead to schistosomiasis and cause certain harm to the human body. However, usually after stir-frying and cooking, the snail can kill the parasite eggs in about 20 minutes, so that it will no longer be transmitted to humans. Therefore, as long as the snail is fully cooked, it will be fine, and you can eat it with confidence.

    Don't eat it when it's undercooked or unclean, it's not good for your health.

    Snails are a common ingredient in life, and they are loved by people because of their delicious meat and many methods, so can they be eaten often? How do you get parasites from snails? I will explain them one by one for you below, I hope it will be helpful to you.

    The snail can be eaten, and it is very delicious, as long as the snail itself is cleaned, it is very safe to cook at high temperature, and it is still a delicious nutrition to eat at home, but it is eaten outside, there are many unsafe factors, the snail may not be cleaned, the oil and other seasonings used may be inferior, the production process is not cooked at high temperature for a long time, and the Fushou snail may be used to pretend to be a snail, etc., so it is necessary to eat the snail as much as possible at home, eat less outside, or do not eat as much as possible. And even at home, don't eat too often, just eat once in a while.

    The parasite resistance is not very strong, it only takes a few seconds to kill the parasite in boiling water, and in general, a temperature of 70 can quickly kill the parasite in the snail, but because the snail has a harder shell, it increases the cooking time. However, after stir-frying, the snails can kill the parasite eggs in about 20 minutes, so they are no longer contagious. It can be eaten with confidence.

    If the snail wants to eat without fine sand, it must be put into a basin or bucket filled with water for 1-2 days, so that the snail can spit out a lot of dirt in the shell. Of course, the water must be changed frequently during these days, and it is best to change it every five or six hours, so that the snails will vomit more thoroughly. If you put a few drops of sesame oil in the water, the effect will be better.

    After stirring vigorously every time you change the water, this will allow a lot of dirt on the snail shell to fall off.

The tail of the snail meat is not edible.

The hard meat (head and feet of the snail) at the upper part of the snail is the edible snail meat, and the rest of the snail's tail is the area where its excrement and internal organs are concentrated, and it is not edible. After the tail of the snail is eaten, it is easy to adsorb on the wall of the digestive tract, which is not easy to digest and easily cause intestinal discomfort in the human body. The snail is an animal that lives in the mud pond, and its internal organs are prone to the presence of parasites, so the meat of the tail should be discarded when eating the snail. >>>More
