Those nonsense about crabs

BY Carol Carey 2020-06-14

   The most nonsense is the first to say "Pregnant women cannot eat crabs". It is said that my lover was having dinner with a few friends with me one day at the beginning of pregnancy. At the dining table (with sea crabs), I received a long-distance call from my sister, telling pregnant women not to eat crabs. My lover looked at me, so I picked up a sea crab and placed it in front of her. Let her eat another one! The most unforgettable thing was that a friend’s lover was pregnant during that time, but someone gave him some crabs. Panjin Inada rice crab is famously said], but his parents [specially came to take care of the daughter-in-law''s daily life] firmly refused to eat. He consulted me on the phone, and of course I told him that pregnant women can eat crabs. Then, he sent all the river crabs to my house [In order to show a firm attitude, his parents refused to eat crabs], so when the wind was high and the night was dark, my family of three (including my pregnant lover) became addicted. Had a meal of river crab.

  The saying that pregnant women can’t eat crabs has been handed down since ancient times [the more they have been handed down since ancient times, the less they could have been taken for granted], why pregnant women can’t eat crabs (why is it bad for the fetus), most of the supporters are unknown, so some people explained that “crab It is cold and easy to abort." But there are thousands of cold foods, can you avoid it? Besides, it has never been found that miscarriage is related to any normal food (except toxic or food poisoning) [Fortunately, my lover has no problems, otherwise I am afraid to be unclear] . In fact, the real "reasons" for pregnant women not to eat crabs are clearly written in many ancient medical books, "Eating Crabs and Making Children Hengsheng" (see the famous masterpieces such as "Shou Shi Bao Yuan" written by Gong Yanxian in the Ming Dynasty). Crab walking sideways results in the birth of the fetus sideways (difficult delivery), so the eloquent "fetching analogy" thinking really believe it or not.

   The most obstinate argument is that "crab can not be eaten with tomatoes (or other fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C)". The original author of this statement is beyond test. In recent years, it has been approved by many medical experts, nutrition experts and food experts over and over again. In my impression, Fang Zhouzi, Teacher Fan Zhihong, Yun Wuxin, Professor Yu Kang, Zhu Yi Teachers, etc. have opened up this classic famous ballad [the secret is to go online Baidu "Fan Zhihong + Crab", "Yun Wuxin + Crab", "Wang Xingguo + Crab", etc.], but there are still many people who believe that there are still individual The doctor said "VC restores trivalent arsenic" (Sai Pingshuang), it is really too much water for the brain to scoop.

   The most unbearable denial is that "crab and persimmon cannot be eaten together." Because once this is denied, the last straw of the "food-to-food" theory is almost taken away. [This kind of thing Fang Zhouzi did the most to admire me, Fang Zhouzi''s blog is the source of the next paragraph]. In fact, as early as the 1930s, my country’s famous biochemistry Zheng Ji personally experimented and ate “crab + persimmon”, and it was safe and sound, and Mr. Zheng happened to live 110 years old, the longest-lived scientist in my country. Some people think that the reason why "crab and persimmon are combined" is that "crab is rich in protein, which is easy to precipitate when combined with persimmon''s tannic acid, and solidifies into a non-digestible substance. Because tannic acid has an astringent effect, it can also inhibit digestive juice. The secretion of coagulation substances causes the coagulation substances to stay in the intestine and ferment, causing food poisoning phenomena such as vomiting, bloating, and diarrhea" (a newspaper introduction). If this reason is true, then persimmons are not only compatible with crabs, but also with other high-protein foods (such as meat, eggs, milk), and even any protein-containing foods may be compatible with it. In that case, persimmons are almost all The food may be commensurate. When eating persimmons, you can no longer eat anything else. What''s more, the statement that "crab and persimmon interact" has been rejected by experiments, and there is no need to excuse it.

   The most far-fetched statement is "Crab contains a lot of cholesterol". The cholesterol content in crab meat (sea crab 125mg/100g; river crab 267mg/100g) is higher than meat and close to the level of animal offal. The cholesterol content in crab meat is low (65mg/100g), and the cholesterol in crab yellow is very high. But in fact, these highs and lows have little practical significance. 100 grams is a crab about half a catty. I believe that few people can eat every day and every month. For most people who occasionally try new products, these cholesterols are nothing, much less than an egg! The deliciousness of crabs and the rich nutrition of protein and minerals are enough to make us ignore cholesterol. Of course, if you have to care about that, then we are fine.

   In fact, in my opinion, the most notable problem of eating crabs is hygiene, buy fresh, high-temperature cooking and heat thoroughly. Finally, I have to create a "rumor": there are about two kinds of people who claim that crabs are not eatable, they should eat less, no more than 3 per week... and so on. One is reluctant to eat crabs (this product is really high in price) , The other is eating big crabs (fear of being robbed by others).
