Information on food adulteration and related diseases

 Tea

Tea and coffee have a high concentration of tea powder. Tea cashew nuts, black chickpea husks, tea powder, synthetic dyes, iron ore etc. A mixture of substances is found. Due to the permanent use of machinery, iron ore is also found on tea leaves.



Health effects:


There have been no reported cases of acute foodborne illness due to this, but the introduction of artificial colors into the body is likely to have long-term effects on health.


Desserts:

Kids are considered a big user of sweets. And too many inedible colors are used in most desserts to attract them. And some of these colors include Rhodamine, Orange, Methanol Yellow etc. Saccharin is infused with sweets.


Health effects:


Irregular intake of dyes is likely to cause a variety of health effects, such as high levels of erythrosin entering the body, which can lead to smallpox in children. Excessive intake of ponceau 4R can cause ulcers on the tongue of children.


Fruits and vegetables:

It has been noticed that in the new form of adulteration made in the food, the addition of colors on the cut fruits is now taking place. And it is well known that artificial ripening of raw fruits is banned in India. Green peas are dyed with a chemical called "malachite green".


Health effects:


Foods have a safe limit of color intake. Each of the more widely used colors has different toxic effects. That is why it is not allowed to add artificial color to all types of food. Toxic effects of artificially ripening fruits are caused by toxic impurities in calcium carbide.


Food Infections:

In addition to food adulteration, foodborne infections are a problem that adversely affects the health of the consumer.


The chain of accidental infections in food continues as follows.


Infection occurs when pesticides are sprayed by the health department to prevent malaria infestation by the farmer to protect the crop.

Even after a long period of spraying, its remains remain and the food of cows and poultry is affected. Soil water is toxic and so are meat, fish, milk and eggs. !

In order to prevent rotting of stored grains, re-spraying of pesticides is done which again increases the quantity of pesticide residues in the quantity of grains.

Traders use pesticides to keep fruits fresh and preserved for a long time. Oils and sweets are a mixture of inedible substances.

Washing vegetables and other foods slightly reduces this risk. But cooking food destroys its toxins. These pesticides are absorbed in the small intestine by taking it in food

Is. ! These germs accumulate in fat cells throughout the body and can damage the body's nerve organs such as the heart, brain, kidneys and liver.

Foodborne Infections:

Common types of foodborne infections include microbial infections, chemical infections, and metal infections.


Microbial infections are more serious than foodborne microbial infections and chemical contaminants such as pesticides used for food safety, veterinary drug residues or heavy metals. In India, however, there is no awareness of foodborne microbial infections. The presence of food products such as ice cream, milk, dairy products, sweets, poultry, proportionate studies or even more pernicious organisms has been reported.


There have been many independent studies on fish, shrimp, etc. In which the study of the extent of microbial infection or the presence of more pathogenic organisms has been found.


Chemical infection

Residues of pesticides: - Residues of pesticide residues in chemical pollutants are a major cause for concern. Similarly, chemicals containing synthetic chlorine such as pesticides / aphids such as DDT, aldrin, di-alfin etc. pose a serious threat to food safety. The use of these pesticides in agriculture has been banned. Yet some of them are still used in public health programs. Milk and milk products are more likely to become infected or contaminated than any other food item.


Fungal Toxins - These fungal toxins are caused by certain types of fungi in food. Which has an impact on health as well as financially. Aflatoxin deoxynevalinol, papyunil, fumenizine and ergot alcabide vs. There are several important fungal toxins found in various foods.


Residues of medicine used in veterinary medicine: - The problem of detecting the presence of residual components of medicine used in veterinary medicine in food has come to the fore in recent times. Residues of pesticides used in the treatment of veterinary diseases or additives used in animal mines and hormones used for further production of milk have been found in milk.
