China has been used to using borax in food since ancient times. Borax is added to food to prevent corrosion, increase elasticity and swell. Borax is harmful to human health.
This is very harmful. The human body can decompose and discharge a small amount of toxic substances by itself, but borax enters the body through the action of gastric acid.
Converted into boric acid, which accumulates in the human body. Although there is not much intake at one time, together, continuous intake will accumulate in the body.
Accumulation hinders the action of enzymes in the digestive tract, causing loss of appetite and indigestion, inhibiting the absorption of nutrients and promoting fat decomposition, thus causing weight loss.
Relieve, its acute poisoning symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, erythema, circulatory disorder, shock, coma and other so-called boric acid disease. Boron in borax is harmful to bacteria.
It can inhibit DNA synthesis, but it can also harm DNA in human body. Boron is a limited element in human body. If the human body ingests too much boron,
Boron can cause cumulative poisoning of multiple organs. The dosage of borax poisoning is 1-3g for adults, 15g for adults and 2-3g for infants.
Dick. Therefore, China's "Food Hygiene Law" and "Hygienic Management Measures for Food Additives" explicitly prohibit the use of borax as a food additive. But by
Borax can significantly improve the "quality" of foods with high taste requirements, especially some meat products, and because borax has relatively high corrosion resistance.
Weak, so it is often used in large quantities.
