Do not spoil your summer.
In summer, the risk of being poisoned by the foods you used to eat in normal circumstances — “nothing.” Among the huge number of recommendations for the prevention of food poisoning experts were chosen not so obvious, like washing hands before eating and buy it only tidy sellers in officially sanctioned outlets.
Drinks with ice
Even if in the heat you have no appetite, to drink-will want. Poison drink — simple, if he added ice cream. What water he made — you don’t know. Perhaps bottled, and perhaps — from ordinary water, which for some time stood somewhere and managed to get the micro-organisms, resistant to low temperature and warming waiting to Wake up and take action.
In addition, the state water pipes and treatment systems “lame”, and generally pedobrazovanie sellers can use to prepare ice technical water.
What to replace? Experts recommend drinking natural mineral bottled water, unsweetened teas, fruit drinks, infusions of dried fruit, fermented milk drink with low fat content. The last quench not only thirst, but hunger, however, we must remember that the salt contained in the tan and ayran, in the heat can cause swelling.
Slozhnokomponentnye dishes with minced meat, chopped vegetables with sauce, ready-made salads
You don’t know when they were cooked, even if the packaging has a sticker with the date: it is easy to glue. The chopped products always go bad faster than whole, so even in a humid environment.
Shawarma, salads with mayonnaise, eggs, meat, fish and seafood, pies with minced meat, pasties, dumplings, dumplings and other popular fast food- leave on until cold. The same applies to smoothies— especially with dairy components, and fresh juices.
What to replace? You should see what you eat. If it’s meat or fish— the piece that allows you to judge its freshness. But better not to risk it and eat wholegrain bread, thoroughly washed fruits or vegetables.
Food with strong smelling spices and sauces
It deadens the flavor of the main dish and can also kill the smell of spoiled product. This is especially true of condiments with curry, garlic, ginger, which are particularly common in pan-Asian fast food: rice and noodles with chicken, beef, shrimp.
What to replace? Nothing, better not to risk it. But if such food is the only available, opt for a vegetarian version without eggs, fish and meat.
Desserts with cream
Eclairs, cakes, pies, rings with cottage cheese, ice cream and Viennese coffee with whipped cream — in the heat of all this should be avoided. In fatty and sweet butter, oil and egg creams with frightening speed multiply pathogens, in addition, the combination of sugar and fat gives unnecessary strain on the body, which are so “hard”.
What to replace? As a light dessert is best eaten fresh fruits and berries, although there is nothing wrong in jams and compotes. A scoop of ice cream— too bad, but only if it is not flavored whipped cream.
Sushi, steak with blood and boiled eggs
All raw and undercooked actually quite dangerous: you have to be 100% confident in the quality of the product. But if it rolls with vegetables, you ask? Yeah, great, but only if you see that the chef does not use the same knife and chopping Board when cooking with fish. Not sure? Then don’t.
What to replace? Prefer fully thermally processed fish, meat, eggs and dairy products, cottage cheese and cheese. If you eat in the cafe— let it will be place with a kitchen where they cook, not warm up the semis.
Than you can get sick?
As explained by the infectious disease physician Anna Kukharuk, what is popularly called the poisoning, more often associated with staphylococcal infection. Staph loves to multiply in dairy products, which stood in the heat, as cakes with cream, sour cream and yogurt. Known symptoms — diarrhea, vomiting, fever.
More hard to proceed intestinal infections such as salmonellosis, which can give complications like meningitis and sepsis. Salmonella bacteria thrive in stale meat and dairy products, eggshells of chicken eggs (so they need a good wash).
All products must undergo a full treatment and used immediately. For meat, raw vegetables and fruits in each family should be a separate chopping Board. In this perspective, “half-baked” products such as sushi are very dangerous parasitic infestation— larvae in meat and fish, only to die after a good heat treatment.
There are intestinal diseases viral nature, the doctor added. Pathogens are transferred from unwashed hands and raw water. The most famous is the rotavirus, or stomach flu. More common in young children. The disease is very severe dehydration and intoxication. From the same list of dangerous intestinal infections— hepatitis A.
