Can eating lemon shrimp be poisoned? Folklore: Eating the famous Thai dish "Lemon Shrimp" will lead to poisoning, because vitamin C in lemon will turn the metal contained in shrimp-pentavalent arsenic into toxic trivalent arsenic, which is commonly used to poison people in China costume dramas.
The fact is that this kind of violent chemical reaction can only happen in the laboratory. Except shrimp, crab, lobster and shellfish (clams, oysters, etc. ) all contain arsenic. Theoretically, high doses of vitamin C and pentavalent arsenic will indeed be converted into toxic trivalent arsenic by chemical catalysis. But in our general diet, it is impossible to eat a very large amount of shrimp at a time, and at most one lemon is used for seasoning, so the content of vitamin C should not be too much. It's an exaggeration to say that eating a plate of lemon shrimp may lead to poisoning. In addition, in the cooking process, vitamin C may have been destroyed, and the ability to convert pentavalent arsenic into trivalent arsenic will be lost.
Recently, there are some reports about eating shrimp and drinking lemon juice in western restaurants, which may be because the vitamin C content of lemon juice is relatively high.
Can lemon and shrimp be eaten together? When a large amount of vitamin C and shrimp are eaten at the same time, it may lead to arsenic poisoning. However, experts also specially reminded that eating 50 medium-sized apples or 30 pears or 10 oranges or eating more than 3 kilograms of green leafy vegetables at one time is a large dose of vitamin C. Therefore, eating fruits or vegetables while eating seafood is generally not dangerous. In addition, metal elements are easy to deposit on the head of seafood, so try not to eat the head.
In addition, it doesn't matter if you don't eat much seafood or drink less lemonade. Just drink some protein that can combine with heavy metals, such as milk and egg white. Usually 100mg of arsenic will lead to poisoning death, that is to say, a person must eat at least one kilogram of seafood and then drink drinks containing vitamin C, which may lead to arsenic poisoning. Under normal circumstances, eating seafood and drinking lemonade will not cause toxic reactions, but it is still not recommended to eat together.
