Almost died together! Mother and child in critical condition, doctors found they received “miracle poison” from the simple food they just ate.
Vegetables are an essential part of a balanced diet and offer many health benefits. However, some of the ways in which vegetables are cooked can be toxic and even life-threatening.
“Ms. Lu,” a 51-year-old woman from Guangzhou, China, unintentionally put herself and her daughter in danger by making pickled vegetables incorrectly. Which led to botulinum toxin poisoning.
It was reported that since her daughter got married and lived close to home. One day when she came back to visit, Lu cooked a big meal to welcome her. However, shortly after eating, she began to feel nauseous. Her vision blurred, and she felt tired. *However, thinking that she had just eaten too much. She took antacids and went to bed. However, the discomfort gradually worsened. She began to vomit heavily, had a headache, a sore throat, a tight chest, and had difficulty breathing.
As Ms. Lu tried to go down and tell her daughter to take her to the เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย hospital. She found her daughter vomiting in the bathroom as well. With both legs shaking and having difficulty breathing. So she immediately called an ambulance.
When they arrived at the hospital, doctors discovered that both of them had been poisoned by botulinum toxin , also known as “miracle poison.” One of the most deadly toxins known to man, capable of killing a person with a small amount. This caused both of them to have respiratory failure, but luckily they were rescued in time.
After investigation, it was found that the cause of this case was “pickled vegetables” because Ms. Lu used the method of pickling vegetables according to the advice of an acquaintance by repeatedly using the old pickling water that had been stored for 6 years, only adding plain water, not changing the entire pickling water.
Even though there was a bad smell and bubbles floating on the surface of the water, she continued to use it because she thought that just boiling it would be safe. This behavior almost killed her and her daughter. The daughter ate more pickled vegetables, so she received a greater amount of poison.
Doctors also warned that “botulinum is the most dangerous biological toxin. It can kill people even in very small amounts,” and warned about four types of food that are at risk of poisoning: canned and packaged foods, processed foods, pickles, and undercooked foods.
