What to do if you accidentally eat a bug

In our daily lives, there are always some small insects parasitizing on the fruits and vegetables we eat. So people will wash it carefully before eating. But no matter how careful you are, there will always be some fish that escape the net and remain on the fruits and vegetables. These insects that are not removed may be accidentally eaten by people.

1. Not too serious

It is very common to find bugs in fruits, so you should be careful when eating them. Insects are rich in protein. Some people like to eat insects, but it is disgusting. The human body contains a lot of stomach acid, so there is no need to worry too much. Gastric juice is highly corrosive, and there is no chance that insects will survive if they enter the stomach. At the same time, the insects will die during the chewing process, so it is not very serious.

2. Nausea and vomiting

Insects may carry bacteria. Therefore, if you accidentally eat the insects in the fruit, it may cause nausea and vomiting symptoms, and you will need to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. It may bring some bacteria and cause diseases such as gastroenteritis, resulting in diarrhea. When the insects enter the stomach, they will be digested by digestive enzymes and will not drill around in the internal organs. However, if there are bacteria inside, they may cause bacterial infection and bacterial disorder in the stomach, leading to acute gastroenteritis and other conditions.

3. Salt water

Light salt water has bactericidal and disinfecting effects. Therefore, if you have eaten the bugs in the fruit, you can drink some light salt water appropriately.

4. Symptoms of diarrhea

If there are worms inside the fruit, it means that the fruit has rotted and spoiled. Eating such fruit may cause diarrhea, so you can go to the hospital and take some treatment medication.
