Bacteria in seafood are mainly vibrios, which are relatively hot and can only be killed at temperatures above 80 degrees Celsius.

In addition to bacteria brought by water, seafood also contains many parasite eggs and pathogens contaminated by the processing. Normally, it is necessary to boil in boiling water for 6-8 minutes to completely destroy bacteria. Moreover, when eating steamed crabs or seafood marinated in special soy sauce, hygiene must be ensured and the seafood must be fresh.

2. Do not eat fruits rich in vitamin Cand contains tannic acidright after eating seafood

- Seafood such as shrimp, crab, clams, etc. are loved by many people because of their high nutritional content, especially the relatively large content of pentavalent arsenic. The pentavalent arsenic content does not have harmful effects on the user's body, however, when combined with fruits containing vitamin C, it is harmful to the body.

According to a recent study, pentavalent arsenic found in shrimp when combined with Vitamin C will transform into arsenic trioxide, also known as arsenic, which can cause acute poisoning, and in severe cases can lead to death.

So after eating seafood, you should be careful not to eat fruits rich in vitamin C such as oranges, lemons, grapefruits, kiwis, etc.

- Fruits containing tannic acid are also on the list of fruits that should not be eaten with seafood because they will hinder the absorption of protein and calcium from seafood into the human body.

On the other hand, tannic acid also easily combines with calcium to form a solid compound called calcium tannic acid. This compound will cause symptoms of bloating, nausea... for users after eating. Tannic acid is found in many fruits such as grapes, persimmons, pomegranates... so you should avoid eating these fruits when eating seafood.

In fact, shrimp, crab, fish... when entering the body will create a lot of uric acid. Excess uric acid in the body is the main cause of gout.

Not only that, beer also contains substances that accelerate the formation of uric acid, causing many disadvantages to human health. Therefore, medical experts warn people not to eat seafood while drinking beer to reduce the risk of gout as well as many other dangerous diseases.

Note, when processing seafood, add a little white wine and rice vinegar to help disinfect and detoxify.
