Potatoes, also known as potatoes, are a food in the family Solanaceae family. The growth process produces solanine (also known as solanine or solanine) to naturally resist pests and diseases. However, solanine is a natural toxin. Eating too much may lead to acute poisoning. Common symptoms include headache, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms. It is generally recommended that the solanine content of potatoes should be less than 200 mg per kilogram, which is harmless to the human body at this dose. Since the content of solanine in mature potatoes is about 50-100 mg per kilogram, it will not cause harm to the human body and will not cause poisoning; however, when the potato germinates, this toxin may increase by 5-6 times. Even if the germination part is dug, the toxin still exists. Because solanine is stable to heat, it will not be damaged during cooking, and excessive toxins will still be eaten after cooking, which will lead to poisoning. Therefore, sprouted potatoes must not be eaten. Below, the editor will share some tricks of potato skin. Maybe it can help you solve your daily worries~
