With the end of the longest closed fishing season in history, a large number of seafood is on the market, and those who like to eat seafood can savor their food. In the summer, cold beer is served with all kinds of seafood. This is the most popular choice.
However, not everyone can enjoy this kind of food casually, like a friend with gout, allergic constitution, thyroid disease, you must manage your mouth. In recent days, several major hospitals in Hangzhou have been able to see many patients who have problems eating seafood because they have problems every day.
The crabs in Hangzhou market are cheaper than half
In the past few days, people from time to time in the circle of friends have sun-dried crabs to “pull hatredâ€. A plump and more delicious crab, see people covetously, I hate to immediately rushed to Zhoushan, eat a seafood meal.
From the beginning of August, the food items on each side could no longer sit still. According to incomplete statistics, on August 5, the speed of high-speed boat racing reached 35,000 vehicles, reaching the highest point of summer traffic in recent years. On the morning of August 6, the number of vehicles stranded on Zhoushan Island was nearly 15,000 vehicles. During the afternoon and evening, the road network continued to be congested.
Seafood also quickly "traveled" into major supermarkets and food markets in Hangzhou. Yesterday, I went to the farmers’ market in the screen street under the Zhonghe Viaduct. I found that the crabs in the market were fat and big, and the price was very close to the people. According to the size, the price was RMB 25/kg, RMB 30/kg respectively. , 35 yuan / kg.
"Now more than 20 pieces of shuttle crabs are only fat, so buy them!" The owner of the fishery shop said that the price of the original crabs was much more expensive. According to the size, more than 60 pieces, more than 70 pieces and even more than 80 pieces. The head may not be big now.
Eating a seafood meal causes gout flares
There are many such patients in the hospital recently
Although seafood is delicious, but not everyone can let go of food, such as people with high uric acid eat seafood, may induce gout. Recently, in the outpatient department of Chief Physician Wu Huaxiang, director of the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of the Second Hospital of Zhejiang Medical University, the number of gout patients was significantly higher. Many of them are caused by eating seafood.
Director Wu Huaxiang said that two days ago she received a 46-year-old male patient surnamed Liu and Taizhou. Because of the acute gout attack, even walking is a problem. When visiting the clinic, the family members rushed in to help.
Mr. Liu’s hometown in Taizhou has been doing business in Hangzhou. Because he has more than 10 years of gout and old problems, he usually pays more attention to it. He doesn't eat much seafood and he rarely drinks. However, recently the seafood market, he invited a few friends to eat seafood in Taizhou. That evening, Mr. Liu ordered a table of seafood, various shellfish, fish, shrimp, and large, fat crabs can be "Pyramid." A few friends enjoyed drinking beer while eating seafood. They had been eating from 6 o'clock in the morning till early morning.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, Mr. Liu's right foot big toe began to hurt. In the clinic, Mr. Liu took off his shoes. Director Wu Huaxiang found that his right foot had red and swollen toes, and gout had a small walnut. Look closely and you can see a mung bean-size gout under the skin. This skin has turned white.
“Recently, patients like Mr. Liu have been quite a few. After eating a seafood meal, they caused gout attack.†Director Wu Huaxiang said that a week ago, she also admitted a 49-year-old male patient. A family of three had friends. A group of 78 people went to Zhoushan to eat seafood. For two consecutive days, except for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Dunton Seafood.
"After coming back, his left foot was swollen so severe that he couldn't walk without speaking. He felt like a knife was cutting his leg. A check of uric acid was already over 630 μmol/L (normal uric acid index was no more than 420 μmol/L.) )."
Shellfish seafood has the highest purine content
Gout is a disease caused by a disorder of purine metabolism. If the human body absorbs too much purine, or if the body cannot metabolize normally, it will cause metabolic disorders.
Which foods have a higher purine content in the daily diet? Statistics show that purines are mainly found in five major categories of food: beer, seafood, animal viscera, stocks, and soy products. Of all the causes of gout flares, beer is the most common, accounting for 60%. A bottle of beer can double uric acid; followed by seafood, which accounts for 18%, animal visceral foods account for 14%, and beans are relatively rare. Only 2%. People who regularly eat high purine foods are more prone to gout.
Chief physician Wu Huaxiang said that in seafood, the purine content of fish is relatively low, and the purine content of shelled seafood is higher. In addition, animal viscera, originally high cholesterol and high fat foods, but also high purine foods; purine soluble in water, soup foods such as hot pot, if often shrimp, shellfish and other seafood or animal offal, purine content It will be very high.
Chief Physician Wu Huaxiang suggested that in the daily diet, attention should be paid to diet control. It is recommended to eat low-purine foods such as fruits and vegetables, egg milk, and pay special attention to drink plenty of water to help the body discharge uric acid. If the physical examination found that high uric acid, you can drink some alkaline soda, or eat soda tablets, can reduce the damage of uric acid on the renal tubules to prevent the deposition of tophi.
Seafood is a common allergen
Allergies eat seafood with caution
For some people with allergies, eating seafood is also a risk, it may cause allergic reactions, ranging from skin irritation, rash, pruritus, and may cause severe anaphylactic shock.
Dr. Luo Lixin of Zhejiang Hospital’s Emergency Department said that recently, on average, the emergency department encounters two or three patients who are allergic to eating seafood.
Two days ago, Dr. Luo Lixin admitted a 40-year-old second-born mother. The baby was 5-6 months old and still breast-feeding.
The two-baby mother was from Hangzhou and she and her family were eating fish head seafood in a restaurant in the scenic area. After eating, they had not left the hotel and they had an allergic reaction. When they sent it, they sent it on their arms, face and neck. A group of red rashes has been caught with hands.
“I saw allergic skin allergies. I asked her if she was allergic to seafood.†After consulting Dr. Luo Lixin, she discovered that the mother was allergic to her childhood but she had eaten fish and shrimp before. Allergic reactions occur. This may be because the resistance during lactation is relatively weak, causing an allergic reaction to certain proteins.
Dr. Luo Lixin said that seafood is one of the allergens that are prone to cause allergic reactions. Many people with allergies do not know which allergens cause allergic reactions. Therefore, when eating seafood, it is important not to eat too much at once. Sometimes it's okay to eat a small amount, and it can cause an allergic reaction when it is oversized.
“Especially those who have not used to eat seafood, but also to keep an eye.†Luo Lixin said that before he had a male patient admitted to Hangzhou from the north, eat a drunk shrimp in the restaurant, the result Causes severe allergic reactions that lead to anaphylactic shock and difficulty breathing.
People with thyroid disease eat less seafood
Because seafood contains high levels of iodine, there are people who worry about eating more seafood, will not increase the risk of thyroid disease, especially thyroid cancer?
There have been investigations showing that the incidence of thyroid cancer in the coastal areas of China is relatively high, and some researchers have speculated that it may be related to the excessive intake of iodine in coastal areas. However, in recent years, Zhejiang Province has carried out a large-scale investigation of iodine nutrition and thyroid-related diseases, and found no relationship between salt iodization and thyroid disease.
Dr. Wang Ping, director of the Department of Thyroid Surgery at the Second Hospital of Zhejiang Medical University, said that the effect of iodine on the thyroid gland is not clear, but it is certain that the thyroid gland is the target organ for iodine. The intake of iodine is too high and may lead to different pathological types. The incidence of thyroid cancer.
Others asked if iodine intake exceeds the standard if seafood eats too much? Jiang Yu, deputy director of the Department of Endocrinology of Zhejiang Hospital, said that 80%-90% of the body's iodine comes from food, 10%-20% is obtained from drinking water, and 5% of iodine is from air. Therefore, iodine in food is the main source of human iodine. Among them, the food with the highest iodine content is seafood, such as kelp, seaweed, fresh octopus, dried wolfberry, dried wolfberry, scallop, mussel, sea cucumber, jellyfish, lobster, etc.; kelp contains the highest iodine content, followed by seashells and fresh Marine fish.
A normal person needs 150 micrograms of iodine daily. If she is a pregnant or breastfeeding woman, her daily intake of iodine is even higher, requiring about 250 micrograms.
"What is certain is that eating seafood will not lead to excessive intake of iodine for the average person, but it is still necessary to pay attention to people with thyroid diseases."
Jiang Yu, deputy chief physician, said that patients with hyperthyroidism and who are still in treatment are advised not to eat seafood. If someone who finds a thyroid nodule during physical examination, they are advised to eat less seafood as much as possible.
