Drying dried fish is for preservation. However, some nutritional value will be retained and some will be lost. In the drying process, some bacteria will invade, so it is suggested to sterilize at high temperature during the production process. If it is cold, it should be soaked in boiling water before eating. Dried fish is a product made of meat or fish after seasoning and drying. With the decrease of water content, the nutrients in it are concentrated, and the content of protein is as high as 45%. Therefore, they are good food to supplement protein. When there is a lack of protein food for dinner, or when bread, cold noodles and instant noodles are used to satisfy hunger, adding dried fish as snacks can effectively supplement nutrition. Eating properly when traveling is also conducive to maintaining physical fitness. However, it is wrong to think that the more dried fish you eat, the better. Not conducive to weight loss. Dried fish is a kind of food with high energy. Eating more of it is no different from eating more meat. Nowadays, dried fish has a lot of fat. Eating more is not good for losing weight, and it will also increase the intake of saturated fatty acids.
There are many carcinogens. Dried fish, shredded squid and other foods contain more "nitrosamines", which are a strong carcinogen and the result of the combination of protein decomposition products and nitrite. Occasionally, eating a small amount will not cause harm, but if you often eat a lot of dried fish or the raw materials for processing dried fish are not fresh, it is likely to lead to excessive intake of nitrosamines.
Increase salt. In order to facilitate preservation, dried fish are added with a lot of salt, which will bring extra sodium when eaten, which is very unfavorable to chronic patients, and may also aggravate edema, eye bags and premenstrual discomfort. Increase waste. A large amount of protein contained in dried fish is only beneficial to human body to a certain extent. If there are too many protein, which exceeds the utilization capacity of human body, a series of metabolic wastes such as ammonia and urea will be formed in the body, which will increase the burden of liver and kidney. Protein, which can't be digested and absorbed, will promote the proliferation of intestinal spoilage bacteria, and form fecal odor and even carcinogens in the intestine.
