When children are playing, they often want to put anything strange they see in their mouths. This makes it very likely that children will accidentally eat something and get lead poisoning. For example, children often put pencils into their mouths when writing, which may cause lead poisoning in children. Lead poisoning can be treated by eating some foods to excrete lead. Here we will take a look at what foods can help children excrete lead? 1. Vegetables: Vitamin C in vegetables such as rapeseed, cabbage, and bitter gourd combines with lead to form water-insoluble and non-toxic salts, which are excreted from the body with feces. Generally speaking, the lead content in plant foods is higher than that in animal foods, and the lead content in roots and tubers is the highest. 2. Fruits: The pectin contained in kiwi, dates, citrus, etc. can precipitate lead in the intestines, thereby reducing the body's absorption of lead. 3. Shrimp skin: Every 500 grams of shrimp skin contains up to 250 grams of calcium, and calcium helps the excretion of lead. 4. Milk: The protein components it contains can combine with lead in the body to form a soluble compound. 5. Yogurt: It can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, reduce lead absorption, and increase excretion. 6. Fungus: It has good anti-cancer effects and can remove lead poisoning. Regular consumption can effectively remove lead poisoning and other harmful substances from the body. 7. Tea: Contains substances such as tannic acid, which can combine with lead in the body to form soluble substances and be excreted from the body with urine. 8. Carrots: Contains a large amount of pectin, which can reduce the toxicity of lead in the body and reduce the absorption of lead. 9. Animal liver: Contains about 20% protein and rich calcium, which is very helpful in preventing lead poisoning. 10. Vitamins: Eating more foods rich in vitamin C can greatly inhibit the body's absorption of lead. Vitamin C combines with lead to form water-insoluble and non-toxic salts that can be excreted from the body in feces. Normal people should consume at least 150 mg of vitamin C per day; for those who have been diagnosed with lead poisoning, the intake can be increased to 200 mg. 11. Garlic: It has the effect of dissolving lead poisoning and can reduce the harm of lead to the human body. 12. Beef: The protein and calcium contained in beef can prevent the body from absorbing lead. Warm reminder: Children suffering from chronic lead poisoning may experience developmental delay, loss of appetite, difficulty walking, constipation, and insomnia; if they are elementary school students, they may also suffer from hyperactivity, hearing impairment, inattention, and mental retardation. Severe cases may result in lifelong disability. Once discovered, it is important to rush to the hospital for treatment, otherwise it will seriously affect the child's growth and development. |
