'Family of Four Die Successively from Liver Cancer' ,,,,,,,, "The Cause Is Long-Term Reuse of 'Wooden Chopsticks'"

According to Hong Kong media HK01, Tan Denzi, head nurse of the Clinical Toxicology Department at Linkou Changgong Hospital in Taiwan, recently appeared on a TV medical program and emphasized the importance of washing and replacing wooden chopsticks. He pointed out that reusing wooden chopsticks without replacing them for too long can be fatal to health. The most notable episode on the broadcast was the 2013 case in China where a family of four died one after another from cancer , and the mold was used for a long time to increase aflatoxin, a Group 1 carcinogen. This prolonged intake of carcinogens ultimately led to liver cancer in the entire family. Tandentz   emphasized that if a crack or crack appears in wooden chopsticks, you must discard the old chopsticks and replace them with new ones, and also guide you on how to wash chopsticks thoroughly. Especially since bamboo chopsticks have   patterns on the top, you must make sure to They said they should wash thoroughly according to the rules, and if they do not scrub the whole tooth, it is virtually impossible to clean thoroughly. The choice of chopstick material is also important, as melamine or plastic chopsticks are sensitive to heat and prone to deformation, so they should not be soaked in hot broth, as heat can release substances harmful to the liver and kidneys.
