Food additives such as antioxidants in chewing gum will also have negative effects on consumer health.
MSG
According to research, each person should not consume more than 6g of MSG per day. When eating too much MSG, glutamate levels will increase, making it difficult for the body to accumulate calcium and magnesium, causing headaches, short-term forgetfulness, rapid heartbeat, and nausea. In addition, consuming too much MSG also has a negative impact on the human reproductive system.
Popcorn
Popcorn is a favorite food of many people, however, eating too much of this substance can easily cause lead poisoning.
The lead content in popcorn is up to 10mg/500g. It affects the nervous system and digestive system of humans, especially young children.
Sunflower seeds
In the list of foods that affect human intelligence, we cannot fail to mention sunflowers, which cause brain atrophy due to overeating according to many large and small studies. In addition, unsaturated fatty acids in sunflowers will cause metabolic disorders in the body, because the body absorbs a certain amount of choline when eating sunflowers.
Fat accumulation in the liver will affect liver function causing fatty liver, cirrhosis, hepatitis and even liver cancer.
Liver
It is estimated that 1 kg of pig liver contains up to 800 mg of cholesterol. Cholesterol is the leading factor leading to atherosclerosis, causing high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and reduced brain activity, so you should not eat too much liver.
