With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the demand for food materials is getting higher and higher. Food safety has always been criticized in our country. Friends who like to buy vegetables in the vegetable market, pay attention to how to select melons, fruits and vegetables with low hormone consumption. First of all, it needs to be explained that hormones (24murD, dwarf, etc.) are indispensable substances in the process of crop growth, and plants themselves will also secrete hormones. Of course, most people now provide hormones to speed up crop growth, and the use of a small amount of hormones will not affect the food materials. But because people have higher and higher requirements for ingredients, so teach you a few tips for selecting and revising healthy ingredients?

Cucumber: cucumber, as a vegetable often supplied in the four seasons, is an indispensable ingredient, whether fresh or fried. To choose cucumber, you must choose the kind of cucumber that does not have top flowers. According to the law of nature, the tail flowers of cucumbers will fall off naturally, but some growers will increase the amount of hormones in order to make the cucumbers feel more fresh, so that the cucumbers will still show fresher flowers in the tail after they mature. It is not recommended to buy cucumbers with flowers on the tail.

Watermelon: watermelon as a seasonal fruit, the annual consumption is very large, we must pay attention to the selection of watermelon, when the melon is cut, pay attention to observe whether the seeds in the melon turn white, if the red seeds turn white, it can be concluded that the watermelon is not mature normally. It is more likely to use ripening agents, except seedless watermelons.

Tomato: tomato is also a kind of seasonal vegetable. Tomato has very strong antioxidant capacity and can be eaten for a long time to delay aging, but tomato is also one of the vegetables with the largest amount of hormones at present. Generally, overwintering tomatoes use hormones, the winter temperature is low, and the effect of natural pollination is poor. Only through artificial hormone pollination can the fruit setting rate be improved. So winter tomatoes generally use hormones, spring and summer tomatoes because the temperature is too high. Natural pollination has a high seed setting rate, and hormones are rarely used.
