Afraid Of Eating Imported Lai Pigs? Nutritionists Teach 4 Tricks, Foodies Should Remember

As for American pigs containing ractopamine and beef over 30 months old, they will be officially imported on New Year's Day. Although the Ministry of Health and Welfare has repeatedly emphasized that the management of Lai pigs is to "follow the flow at the source, and confirm the labeling of the market", there are still many People are worried that they will eat Lai pigs. Xu Yuhui, director of the nutrition team of the Dong Foundation, proposed that if you are not sure about the source of pork, you should try to eat less pork lo-mei and pork feet when eating out.

Xu Huiyu believes that when the import of pigs/cattle was just opened, all the central and local governments indicated that they would strengthen the inspection and inspection, and even some local governments had "zero detection" or "no detection" of ractopamine. Therefore, in the short term, the probability of people eating pigs should be very low.

Actually, given the fact that Chinese people love to eat pork, Xu Huiyu believes that most of the pigs bought in traditional markets are domestic pigs, and there is little chance of buying imported pigs, and the meat products sold in supermarkets are also strictly required. The source needs to be clearly marked, and consumers can choose and decide by themselves. On the other hand, when it comes to processed pork-related products and eating out, especially for those who eat out, it is more difficult to identify the ingredients.

To reduce the consumption of pork containing lysine, Xu Huiyu believes that the first step is to reduce the amount of red meat. Whether it is pork or beef, it is recommended that adults eat about 70 grams per person per day, with a maximum of 100 grams per day. After all, red meat has been shown to be a carcinogen and has health risks. Eat less red meat and be healthier.

Secondly, she believes that most domestic pork can be supplied to Chinese peopleEdible, but Chinese people eat a lot of large intestines, pig feet, mouth meat, liver and so on, especially pig feet, large intestines, etc. are often in short supply, and foreigners hardly eat these, it may be in the name of "pork offal" It is imported from abroad, so there is a greater chance of eating the lysate, especially the braised large intestine and pig's feet cooked with heavy flavors, and it is more likely that you will not be able to eat it. Be careful when you eat this type of food out in the future.

As for minced meat products such as meat buns, dumplings and pot stickers, Xu Huiyu said that because it cannot be seen by the naked eye, it may be mixed with various meats. The source, it is recommended to eat less." Xu Huiyu said.

Xu Huiyu mentioned that many processed red meat products have too many substances added during the process. "You think you eat meat floss, but you actually eat a lot of corn flour." It is not recommended to eat it originally, especially over-processed food, such as the meat used in the tribute balls, may use Lai pig in the future, and it is recommended to eat less.

But if you look at it, Xu Huiyu believes that because the production requires fresh pork, and imported pigs cannot be made because the pig fiber is destroyed and cut during freezing, so this kind of "visible" meat floss is not possible. can eat.
