The doctor reminded the public: do not swallow the fruit shell directly into the stomach. It is very harmful to swallow the whole thing. Once a large number of fruit shells are accumulated in the body, it may lead to more and more gastrointestinal tension, ischemia and necrosis. If not treated in time, it may also cause bleeding, which is life-threatening.

There is a rumor in the market that fruit with seeds is healthier and can even prevent cancer. There are many kinds of fruits. Which fruit seeds can be eaten and which can't be eaten? A reporter from life times interviewed Shi Jun, Ph.D. in Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, to explain the 'secret' of fruit seeds.

For fruit, we mainly eat healthy and delicious pulp, but some fruit seeds also have some health effects. For example, grape seeds contain minerals and amino acids needed by the human body, which can improve human immunity; watermelon seeds are sweet and even in nature, which can clear the lungs, moisten the intestines, dissipate phlegm and stop coughing, and have auxiliary effects on cough, phlegm, hemoptysis and other symptoms; pomegranate seeds contain polyphenols which have a wide range of functions in beauty and health care, which can improve brain function, reduce varicose veins and restore vision; Kiwifruit The seed has the functions of reducing blood lipid and softening blood vessels. Shi Jun said that although many fruit seeds are rich in nutrition, the dosage should also be considered. The daily intake of fruit seeds cannot achieve the ideal effect, so we do not recommend eating fruit seeds. It doesn't matter if you eat a small amount of fruit seeds by mistake occasionally, but if you eat fruit seeds specially for the purpose of treatment and health care, it doesn't have much effect.

Generally speaking, the small seeds mixed in the pulp can be eaten, such as strawberry seeds, blueberry seeds, passion fruit seeds, tomato seeds and pitaya seeds, but the human stomach cannot absorb them. Some fruit seeds, such as pineapple and durian, are delicious when cooked. Shi Jun suggested that when eating this kind of fruit seeds, you should pay attention to cooking thoroughly.

Some fruit seeds and kernels cannot be eaten because they contain toxic substances. Shi Jun pointed out that the seeds and kernels of apple, bitter almond, pear, plum, loquat and cherry can not be eaten. They may contain cyanogen glycoside, which is non-toxic in itself. However, when the plant cell structure is destroyed, the beta glucosidase can hydrolyze cyanogen glycoside and generate toxic hydrocyanic acid, which may cause acute middle stage Poison. Among them, the toxicity of bitter almond is greater, and the epicarp and tip of almond are the areas with concentrated toxicity. Shi Jun stressed that when eating this kind of fruit, it should be seeded, not to mention specially eating fruit seeds. When eating this kind of fruit, be careful not to chew up the seeds. When it is used for juicing, it is better to remove the nuts (seeds).

When some people eat fruit, they think it's too troublesome or careless to spit out the seeds, so they swallow them together. Shi Jun told reporters that this situation does not need to worry too much. Too small seeds are generally harmless to human body. They cannot be digested by gastrointestinal tract and will be discharged after a period of time. But when there are children under the age of 3 at home, care must be taken to avoid choking the nuts and seeds into the trachea when the baby eats fruit, or eating hard and angular nuts such as jujube seeds, which can scratch the digestive tract.
