Spicy strips, also known as spicy shreds, are mostly made of processed soybean skin, and then pickled with Chili powder and pigment. People will sweat a lot in a short time after eating spicy food, and feel very comfortable, mainly because spicy food can stimulate sweat gland secretion, accelerate metabolism and blood circulation, which is good for the body, but the production process of spicy strips is difficult to monitor, and there are many health problems, which are harmful to the human body.
Extended data:
Spicy strips originated in Pingjiang, Hunan. The industry is called gluten, and Pingjiang people call it spicy, because spicy strips are spicy from the beginning, and spicy is authentic. Spicy strips are non-fried and spicy snacks made of flour after extrusion and seasoning.
In order to pursue the taste and color, spicy strips sold in the market often use a lot of additives, which may be within the qualified range stipulated by the state, but children will eat several packages at a time because of the good taste of spicy strips, so there will be a "superposition effect", and food additives will be excessive, which is obviously not healthy food.
Moreover, the child's own organ development is not perfect, and excessive intake of preservatives will overload the child's organs and damage organ function. At the same time, these spicy strips contain a lot of sodium salt. Eating too many spicy strips will lead to excessive intake of sodium and salt, which will make children prone to diseases that adults will get, such as high blood pressure, and will also have an impact on children's taste buds, which will lead to deviations in children's tastes and have a negative impact on their future living habits.
Spicy strips contain a lot of oil. After the package is damaged, oil is easily oxidized by light. After oxidation, it will generally have a spicy taste, which will be harmful to the health of children.
Some illegal small workshops use inferior expired oil or reused waste oil, which is highly carcinogenic. Eating spicy strips made of this oil often will increase the risk of cancer. Spicy strips become attractive in color, and it is difficult to dye them only by peppers. It is necessary to use dyes in food additives, such as carmine. There are strict regulations on the dosage of these food additives, but it is really difficult for small workshops to supervise them.
In fact, not all spicy strips are unhealthy. Some spicy strips are still guaranteed in quality, and they are sold in big supermarkets. The packaging of healthy spicy strips should have the manufacturer, production date and national certification mark, so it is no harm to eat such spicy strips.
