1. Both mother and daughter went to Xiaohua in Dongguan intensive care unit. Because they ate homemade sauerkraut, they developed nausea, vomiting, limb weakness, chest tightness and shortness of breath with their mother, and were sent to the intensive care unit of the local hospital. After testing by the local CDC, it was found that its vomit and homemade kimchi jars contained? Botox? . Subsequently, the mother and daughter were transferred to the Twelfth People's Hospital of Guangzhou for treatment. The hospital opened a green channel for emergency rescue and mobilized a special antidote from the pharmacy? Botox, send it to ICU.
The director of the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Guangzhou Twelfth Hospital said that botulinum toxin is the most toxic one at present, and it is an exotoxin secreted by Clostridium botulinum, and the mortality rate of botulinum toxin poisoning is as high as 35%. After anti-infection, adjustment of enteral nutrition, acupuncture, passive physical exercise and other rehabilitation physiotherapy, the mother and daughter were discharged recently.
Second, Botox is everywhere. Botox is a ubiquitous bacterium, widely distributed on the surface of vegetables, fruits and seafood. Botulinum toxin exists in home-made fermented beans and cereal products, such as cured meat, pickles, bean paste, stinky tofu, stale leftovers and so on. Our own sauerkraut cannot guarantee strict sterilization environment and the purity of inoculated fermented microorganisms. If it is not handled properly, it is likely to be contaminated by bacteria.
Pickled sauerkraut at home is generally pickled a lot, and what can't be eaten is always left. In the right environment, Botox will breed botulinum toxin here, causing great harm to the body.
So I suggest that you don't try pickles easily. If you really want to eat, it is most reliable to go to the supermarket. Don't just eat pickles given by others.
In addition, a large amount of nitrite will be produced in the pickling process of sauerkraut due to different time. Nitrite will produce nitrosamines when it comes into contact with human body. Nitrosamine is a common carcinogen, which can cause nasopharyngeal carcinoma, esophageal cancer and liver cancer.
