Summer is the season of high incidence of food poisoning. How to avoid food poisoning in children?

Summer is the season of high incidence of food poisoning, and the preservation and cleaning of food become very important. Therefore, to avoid children's food poisoning, we should: pay attention to the control of the length of frozen food within the shopping distance; Buy home to freeze the food that needs to be frozen; Wash vegetables and fruits before eating, wash meat, and so on.

1, shopping distance

Generally speaking, foods that cannot be preserved for a long time, such as dairy products, meat, poultry, fish, frozen foods, etc. It can last for about 4 hours in the non-frozen state. So try to buy this kind of food in shops and supermarkets near home, and don't let them freeze for more than 1 hour. If you go home by car, you should pay attention to keep this kind of food away from the engine to avoid breeding bacteria when the food is heated.

2. Frozen storage

If there are things in the freezer and freezer of the refrigerator at home, and the air circulation is not good, it will produce temperature and humidity. Even if the refrigerator is only a little higher than the specified temperature, bacteria will breed. Keep the shelves in the refrigerator clean and dry, and always check the thermometer reading: the freezer should be kept below 0 degrees Celsius, and the freezer should be kept between 1 and 5 degrees Celsius.

3. Cleanliness of vegetables and fruits

Due to the increasingly serious pollution in modern society, fresh vegetables and fruits may also become hiding places for bacteria. After you buy it, put it in the refrigerator immediately. Vegetables should be soaked in clear water 1 hour or so before washing. Before eating fruit, rinse it with water and then wipe it with a paper towel.

The experimental results show that washing with tap water can remove 99% bacteria; Only washing with water can remove 75% bacteria. Therefore, for some fruits with thick skin, such as watermelon, the best way is to rinse them with water first, and then wipe them with a clean dry cloth. This can prevent external microorganisms and bacteria from polluting watermelon pulp during slicing.

4. Cleanliness of meat

Thawing or soaking meat in the kitchen provides a good hotbed for the growth of bacteria, so thaw or soak it in the refrigerator. Moreover, in order to prevent gravy from dripping on other foods or polluting the surface of the refrigerator, thawed or pickled meat should be placed at the bottom of the refrigerator, and paper towels should be laid under the basin or tray containing meat to absorb dripping juice at any time.

Extended data:

Characteristics of food poisoning:

1, the incubation period is short and the onset is sudden. After eating a certain food, it can happen within ten minutes to ten hours, which is sudden and explosive. Many people get sick at the same time or successively in a very short time, and will soon reach the peak.

2. The symptoms of patients are roughly the same or similar, which are more common in gastroenteritis symptoms, and some are mainly neurological symptoms.

3, food poisoning has the same pathogenic food, patients have eaten some pathogenic food in a similar period of time, the scope of the disease is limited to people who have eaten some toxic food, that is to say, there is an obvious relationship with food, and people who have not eaten this food will not get sick even at the same table. But once you stop eating this food or the pollution source is removed, the disease will stop immediately.
