Cooked overnight fungus is not poisonous, if it is eaten overnight soaked fungus will have the possibility of poisoning.

Normal black fungus in a short period of time during the foaming process to produce the probability of rice fermentation bacterial acid is very low; but if a long period of time soaking, coupled with the external environment is not clean, there is a possibility of being contaminated by Pseudomonas coccineus and generate rice fermentation bacterial acid.

For example, if there is expired and spoiled food around the soaking time, or if the soaking container is not washed clean and there are leftover food residues. These spoiled and leftover food residues will become the breeding ground for the formation of MEA. The incubation period of poisoning by MEA is up to 3 days, but mostly half a day to 1 day. After poisoning, you can only take general first aid measures such as inducing vomiting, gastric lavage and intestinal cleansing, or dilute the toxin with the help of hemodialysis.
