Can't eat overnight crabs? Gout can not eat crab? Inventory of true and false rumors about crabs
Everyone should have eaten crabs, but many people may not know much about this hard-shelled animal. Crabs, belonging to the phylum Arthropoda, are crustaceans. The body of the crab is protected by a hard shell, and the crab breathes by gills. The vast majority of crabs live in seawater or offshore areas, and some live in freshwater lakes or land. China is rich in crab resources, and China's Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs and Gaoyou Lake hairy crabs are all high-quality crabs with a good reputation.
There are many folk theories about eating crabs, so which ones are true? Which ones are fake?
- The nutritional value of crab is not high, not as good as that of ordinary beef
This statement is actually completely correct. There are folk sayings that crabs have high protein content, and eating crabs is a great tonic. In fact, these statements are not correct. The nutritional value of crabs is not high. People who pay high prices to eat crabs may just pursue the enjoyment of taste buds and spiritual needs. Therefore, the nutritional value of crabs is not high.
- Crabs are not suitable for people with gout and high uric acid
This statement is correct. The uric acid content in crabs is very high. In fact, as long as it is aquatic products, it has a high uric acid content. Therefore, people with high uric acid must not be greedy, because eating more will further damage their body and cause irreversible damage.
- Crabs cannot be eaten with vitamin C
This statement has already been debunked. It has been circulated for many years that "shrimp cannot be eaten with vitamin C" because "it will produce arsenic and be poisoned". Crabs and other aquatic products are included in the "extended version" of this taboo. In fact, one or two hundred milligrams of vitamin C will not produce a large amount of toxic trivalent arsenic through "reduction". If you eat thousands of milligrams of vitamin C, it is a bit dangerous, because too much VC itself may cause diarrhea in sensitive people. Therefore, taking multi-nutrient pills on the same day does not affect eating crabs again.
- Crabs must be cooked and eaten immediately, not overnight
This statement is basically correct. Crabs are rich in protein and are prone to deterioration without a good fresh-keeping environment. Due to the special meat quality of crabs, bacteria may still breed after high-temperature cooking. When the crab is not finished eating, it does not mean that it must be thrown away. It can be stored in the refrigerator and stored until the next day after disinfection.
Therefore, although crabs are delicious, you must pay attention to them.
