Spring bamboo shoots. After eating spring bamboo shoots, you will know the taste of spring. At present, the spring bamboo shoots known as “the first product of vegetable food” are breaking through the ground one after another. Spring bamboo shoots are fresh, crisp and refreshing. They are a nutritious food with low fat, low sugar and multi fiber. At this time, it is a good time to try fresh bamboo shoots. Untreated fresh bamboo shoots are usually mixed with a strong astringent taste. The bitter taste of bamboo shoots is actually caused by the joint action of oxalic acid, tyrosine, phytic acid, tannin and other substances. Before cooking, soak it in water, extend the boiling time, remove most of it, and reduce the bitter taste. In addition, because bamboo shoots contain a lot of crude fiber, excessive intake is easy to damage the biological rationality of gastric production. Therefore, patients with gastritis and gastric ulcer should not eat a lot of bamboo shoots.

Asparagus. Asparagus is known as the “king of vegetables” because of its rich and balanced nutrition. The total amount of amino acids, vitamin A and vitamin C is higher than that of ordinary fruits and vegetables, and the contents of aspartic acid and selenium are not low. It is a seasonal vegetable with low sugar, high fiber, high vitamins and low fat. Does your urine smell strange after eating asparagus? Is this a kidney problem? Don’t worry, this is actually the reason for asparagus. When the human body begins to digest and decompose asparagus, aspartic acid and its derivatives will be decomposed into a series of sulfur-containing compounds, which will make the urine smell when discharged. However, not everyone will perceive the smell of asparagus urine. There are individual differences in the sensitivity of different populations to the smell of these sulfur compounds.

Toona sinensis. As the saying goes, “March 8, eat toon buds”, and “March 8” of the lunar calendar, that is, before and after Gu Yu, is the best time to eat toon. Toona sinensis is the tender bud of Toona sinensis tree. It is a seasonal famous product once listed as one of the “small eight treasures”. It is known as “the best vegetable on the tree” and “the crown of protein”. Toona sinensis is rich in nutrients, potassium, calcium, magnesium and other elements. The content of B vitamins and VC is also among the best in vegetables. It is said that eating Toona sinensis will lead to nitrite poisoning and cancer? In fact, Toona sinensis does contain a certain amount of nitrite, but it contains ≠ carcinogenic! Any toxic reaction can only be achieved by “meeting the dose”. It is unscientific to talk about toxicity regardless of dose. Nitrite widely exists in nature. Many plants absorb nitrogen in soil and convert it into nitrate and nitrite during their growth. Therefore, many vegetables, such as celery and spinach, contain a certain amount of nitrite. As long as you eat a normal diet and take it in an appropriate amount, it will not exceed the daily allowable intake of international standards, which will have little impact on your body.

Prevent poisoning of wild vegetables and mushrooms. Do not dig, buy, process and eat unknown wild mushrooms, wild vegetables, wild fruits and wild potatoes at will, and beware of accidental poisoning.
