Seafood with beer causes gout? is that true?

Nowadays, there are many news related to food safety and health diseases circulating in the circle of friends. Such rumors often include such words as "carcinogenic," "toxic," and other exaggerations. Many netizens said that it is too difficult to distinguish! Today, CCTV news once again sorted out two recent news that are widely circulated.

Clean toilet block polluted water can cause cancer?

Recently, a message “Please do not put a blue toilet block in the water tank of your own toilet and cause harm to others”, the news says:

The toilet block is only suitable for foreign buildings with double water supply systems. There is almost no such water supply system in China. Since the main valve and the sub-valve do not have a one-way check valve, under the influence of negative pressure, the contaminated water with strong carcinogenicity will flow back into the tap water system and cause several diseases including cancer, leukemia and severe visceral allergy. Ten kinds call for an immediate stop of this suicidal act!

This seemingly credible argument has caused many people's concerns. Is this really the case?

Truth: Caring for cancer is an alarmist

There is a basis for the claim that the toilet block is polluting the tap water, that is, the water in the toilet tank will reverse. This is possible, but the probability is low. "Backflow" refers to the siphon effect. When the water is suddenly stopped, the tap water management is in a "vacuum" state. If there is water in the toilet tank, the water may be sucked into the tap water pipe. However, toilets that are prone to backflow are generally old-fashioned toilets. Toilets currently on the market have basically anti-siphon functions!

If the "blue water" reversed, do not worry, there is no evidence that the "clean toilet block" caused cancer. According to experts, the main components of the toilet block are detergents, bactericides, and flavors, which are common chemical substances and basically do not interfere with the human body. Among them, the benzene compounds in the fragrance have a certain impact on the human body, but its content is small, and after dilution with water, even if the content into the water supply pipeline is minimal, there is no need to worry too much.

Therefore, there is no need to worry too much even if you use a “cleaning toilet block” under a single water supply system. Even if there is an occasional "blue water backflow," just put "blue water" on it!

Eating seafood with beer causes gout?

In the summer, beer and seafood can be said to be quite cool! But online there are rumors that eating seafood can not be beer, or it will lead to gout. The news said:

Seafood contains a large amount of a substance called purine, which is converted to uric acid after metabolism. Excess uric acid can cause gout, so you must eat less seafood, especially not to eat seafood while drinking beer.

Gout is really uncomfortable, but is this really true?

Truth: To see the situation, gout patients need to pay attention

This statement cannot be said to be wrong, but it is not a complete picture of the problem. Purine does metabolize to uric acid, and the accumulation of uric acid does cause gout, and seafood does contain quite a few purines. However, purines are widely found in food, except for seafood, meat, animal organs, and soy products. Gout patients do eat less.

The most common explanation for the reason why “fish can't drink beer” is that vitamin B1 is contained in the yeast used in production, and vitamin B1 causes the conversion of purine to uric acid. Although the yeast used to produce beer contains a lot of vitamin B1, it is used in small quantities. Therefore, the content of vitamin B1 in beer is very low and completely negligible. Therefore, this "reason" makes no sense!

Another argument is that the metabolites of alcohol in beer will compete with uric acid for excretion and affect the excretion of uric acid. This argument is reasonable. However, eating any food with a high purine content and then drinking alcohol can theoretically lead to such consequences, and alcohol is inherently an important factor in increasing the risk of gout.

So, can seafood be equipped with beer in the end? For anyone who has symptoms of gout, any high-purine foods should be avoided. Seafood and alcoholic beverages should not be touched. For healthy people, if it is to be "absolutely safe," seafood, animal organs and wine should all be eaten less. If you want to "appetite," do not worry too much about seafood, beer, although it will increase the risk of gout, but compared with ordinary drinking and eating meat, this risk is not necessarily greater.
