1, eating takeout every day is harmful.
Excessive microorganisms and nutrient loss.
The first is the safety factor and freshness of food. The merchants on the takeaway platform are mixed, and there are many black-hearted vendors.
Secondly, sometimes food is stored and transported for too long, which not only leads to the loss of nutrients, but also increases the risk of microorganisms exceeding the standard. Cold food is also not conducive to gastrointestinal digestion and absorption.
20 16 China Journal of Health Inspection Technology published an article on the monitoring and analysis of bacterial contamination of eight take-away meals in a province. According to statistics, among the 435 take-away meals in 8 categories monitored this time, 189 samples were unqualified, and the unqualified rate was 43.45%. The total number of colonies and coliforms in box lunch, rice flour products and Chinese cold salad dishes are all high.
Too much oil, salt and heat.
In order to attract customers, take-out often puts more oil and salt. At the same time, take-away food is mainly refined carbohydrates, with insufficient meat and too few vegetables, which is far from meeting the needs of the human body. Long-term consumption may lead to protein and vitamin deficiency.
Disposable lunch boxes have many hidden dangers.
In order to save costs, some manufacturers will fill a large number of industrial calcium carbonate and other harmful substances in disposable lunch boxes. These harmful raw and auxiliary materials added in the production process dissolve with water, vinegar and oil contained in food, which may cause indigestion, local pain and diseases of liver and kidney system after food enters the human body. Even some transparent lunch boxes marked "PP" are not necessarily safe.
2, "science" order takeaway
In fact, many people know the dangers of take-out, but for students, office workers and overtime parties, ordering take-out is a last resort. We might as well learn from the "scientific" place for take-out.
1 brand selection
Choose a big brand restaurant, its sanitary conditions and food quality are relatively guaranteed. Pay attention to the details of the merchant when ordering, carefully check the business license and catering service license of the store, and see if there is a real scene of the store.
2 find a balance
When eating some pure starch foods such as noodles, rice noodles and hot and sour powder, remember to add more green leafy vegetables to avoid causing high blood sugar. When eating take-out of potato, taro, lotus root and other side dishes, consciously reduce the intake of rice.
Step 3 choose cooking
Choose some cooking, steaming, stewing, stewing and other dishes. Eat less or don't eat too much oil.
Four species
Pay attention to the diversification of food, don't always order only one kind of takeaway; Or order more dishes with friends and colleagues to increase the total intake of vegetables.
5 Clever collocation
Prepare some foods that are easy to carry and store, such as nuts, fruits, low-salt seaweed, yogurt, milk, etc. You can also buy some vitamins, minerals or compound supplements to supplement.
3. Precautions for bringing your own lunch
Don't bring green leafy vegetables.
Green leafy vegetables sealed for one morning will not only deteriorate in color and appearance, but also produce some nitrite (converted from nitrate). Although this nitrite is not as good as the nitrite added in ham sausage, cooked meat products in supermarkets and meat dishes in restaurants, we should pay attention to it in order to do the best. If you are worried that the lack of green leafy vegetables will affect the nutritional balance, you can bring more fruits.
2. It is best not to bring fish.
Meat, eggs and bean products are relatively storable. The fishy smell will get worse if the fish dish is left for a long time.
These dishes must be fried thoroughly.
Dishes should be thoroughly fried or simply stewed to completely kill bacteria and extend the safe storage time. In addition, don't use leftovers to pack lunch boxes, but use newly cooked dishes (don't be contaminated by chopsticks and saliva).
It is best to have a refrigerator (cold storage) and a microwave oven (heating) in the office.
If you don't have either, you have to use that kind of lunch box with very good thermal insulation, which packs hot meals in the morning and has residual temperature at noon. Because of its good sealing, it generally does not sour and deteriorate. However, as a suggestion, if you want to be foolproof, you'd better put your lunch box in the refrigerator and heat it before eating. There is no refrigerator, at least there should be a microwave oven (or other heating measures).
Rice (staple food) and vegetables should be served separately, not mixed together.
6. Choose durable food.
Potatoes, fungi and seaweed dishes are relatively resistant to storage, not easy to change color or produce nitrite, and have good nutrition, which is very suitable for bringing their own box lunch. It's best to cook vegetables in the morning, not the night before, and try to shorten the storage time.
It turns out that takeaway is so harmful, do you dare to eat takeaway every day? If you want to eat healthy and nutritious takeaway, you can learn from the methods recommended above, which can reduce the harm of takeaway to human body. Usually, if you don't order takeout for your own health, you won't order it. Of course, it is more reassuring to eat by yourself. Office workers had better bring their own lunch.
