Dried cauliflower is non-toxic, while fresh cauliflower is rich in colchicine, which is oxidized into the more toxic colchicine in the body, which irritates the digestive system and causes poisoning symptoms.

The toxicity of ginkgo is the most severe in green embryos, and there are trace amounts of cyanoglycosides in kernels, which are prone to acute poisoning after eating too much. Its toxin can dissolve in water, its toxicity is strong, and its toxicity can be reduced by heat, so the poisoning symptoms of raw food are more serious.

The main symptoms of poisoning patients were central nervous system and gastrointestinal symptoms, occasionally peripheral nerve dysfunction, dizziness, dry mouth, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and even visual rotation, fear, mental malaise, convulsions, convulsions and so on.

Infants can be killed by eating 10 pieces, and children aged 3-7 years old by 30-40 pieces.

The point is that a little... Eat a small amount! (just a few pieces of stew soup is enough, peel the green embryo and throw it away, and don't give it to the baby; it's even more difficult to understand those who go to eat ginkgo leaves. Just say that they will also be poisoned! )

Treatment: vomiting and be sent to hospital immediately.
