Symptoms of beans poisoning

Green beans are a kind of vegetable that we can often eat in real life, and many people also like to eat them. Everyone basically knows that raw beans are poisonous, so few people eat them without cooking them. So, if you accidentally eat raw beans, what are the symptoms of poisoning? Most people would be blank on this point, because no one would eat raw beans. After all, life is something that none of us can repeat.

Beans are a plant and also a food. You can often buy them in the vegetable market because they are relatively common. Most people eat beans by blanching them in water before cooking them, which makes them easier to cook. However, some people may accidentally eat raw beans and get poisoned. Let's talk about the symptoms of bean poisoning.

Beans are a general term for the fruits of various leguminous plants, including beans, soybeans, cowpeas, etc., or specifically cowpeas and beans. It is a vegetable that grows in abundance in summer. Contains various vitamins and minerals, etc. The tender bean pods are fleshy and crispy when fried, or they can be blanched and served cold or pickled. The bean pods are long and tubular, crispy and soft. The common types are white beans and green beans.

Legume vegetables mainly include lentils, beans, peas, cowpeas, etc.; most people only know that they contain more high-quality protein and unsaturated fatty acids (good fats), and that the content of minerals and vitamins is also higher than other vegetables, but they do not know that they also have important medicinal value. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the common characteristics of bean vegetables are that they are mild in nature, have the effect of removing dampness and tonifying the spleen, and are especially suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach. However, their therapeutic effects vary depending on their species.

Symptoms of poisoning usually appear several dozen minutes after consumption, but no more than 4 hours. The main symptoms are gastroenteritis, such as nausea and vomiting, several times or even dozens of times a day. There are also abdominal pain, diarrhea, and upper abdominal distension. In severe cases, neurological symptoms such as dizziness, headache, sweating, chest tightness, cold sweat, palpitations, burning sensation in the stomach, and numbness of the limbs may occur.

For those with mild poisoning, vomiting and diarrhea can heal on their own without treatment. However, there is currently no specific medicine for bean poisoning. For those with severe poisoning, apart from inducing vomiting, catharsis, and gastric lavage, they can only be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, but the hope of escape is slim. Therefore, be especially vigilant.

To prevent bean poisoning, make sure to stir-fry and cook beans thoroughly before eating them. Do not just blanch them in boiling water and then make a cold dish, let alone make it directly into a cold dish. This way you can avoid poisoning.

Therefore, through the above detailed introduction to the symptoms of bean poisoning, I believe everyone should have a certain degree of understanding of the symptoms of bean poisoning. After learning about this, everyone must avoid eating raw beans, because if you accidentally eat raw beans and get poisoned, it will be very troublesome, because if you are poisoned, your body will be very uncomfortable, especially the gastrointestinal area. In addition, if someone already has gastroenteritis, it will be even more uncomfortable. Therefore, if you accidentally eat raw beans and get poisoned, you should go to the hospital for treatment immediately.
