Apple rotten a little bit, is to cut off or continue to eat or throw away?
The high content of vitamins and minerals in fruits is an essential nutrient for our body. And the beautiful color of fruit, it is tempting people, especially the apple. In this cold winter, although many fruits are also sold, but the relatively low price of apples, to meet the needs of all sectors of the fruit. But in the process of placing, you may find apple decay, some is a little rotten, throw it a little pity, eat or not eat?
From the beginning of teens, every winter home will buy one or two pounds of apples stored, basically can eat a winter. Until now, I still have this habit. Sometimes I buy a lot of them, but after some time in the kitchen, I find some apples begin to decay. Some of my friends choose to use a knife to shatter the rotten apples and continue eating them. This is totally wrong.
Rotten parts of apple tend to mold, and these molds tend to produce a mycotoxin called patulin. Even if the decayed part is cut off, the microbial metabolic process produces some harmful metabolites that the naked eye may not see inside the pulp. Patulin penicillin is rotten fruit on the main toxins, with animal carcinogenicity. Once the mildew appears in the apple, the normal part can also detect the penicillin, the content is up to 50% of the mildew site.
People eat rotten fruits, rotten fruits in the mycotoxins, dizziness, headache, nausea, bloating, etc., may occur, but also serious life-threatening. The old saying goes, "rather eating a biloba, do not eat a basket of apricot" is very reasonable, and then encounter this situation, or just throw away just fine, there is no need to save a fruit and jeopardize their own Healthy body.
