Ginkgo also contains toxic components such as cyanoside, which can be converted into hydrocyanic acid in human body, which is a highly toxic and deadly substance. Therefore, eating a large amount of ginkgo fruit at a time can lead to poisoning, especially for raw people. If children eat raw 5- 10 pills at a time and adults eat 10-50 pills, it will lead to poisoning and even death.
Extended data:
Ginkgo pulp contains ginkgolic acid and ginkgolic acid. When eaten in excess, they not only have strong stimulation to human skin and mucous membrane, but also have toxic effects on the central nervous system, which is characterized by first arousing the excitement of the nervous system, followed by nervous system depression symptoms, such as muscle twitching and gradual failure of the circulatory and respiratory systems.
Especially when gingko is not cooked by heating, as long as you eat a few pieces raw, you will soon have symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain and limb convulsions. If you develop further, you will turn into a coma, make your heartbeat weak, and even die of respiratory and circulatory failure. Children who eat 5 to 10 ginkgo seeds raw will cause poisoning. Although the toxicity of fried ginkgo is reduced, you can't eat more.
