Don't touch it!

These rumors are lying to you!

The news of eating mushroom poisoning is countless every year, but there are still countless people taking risks to taste delicious. One reason is that there are many "great gods" among the people, who think they have a set of secrets to identify good mushrooms and poisonous mushrooms.

These tips have been circulating on the Internet, but they are actually pits.

Are brightly colored mushrooms poisonous?

In fact, just looking at the appearance of mushrooms, there is no absolute safety standard. The white gooseberry looks ordinary, but it is a deadly "white poison umbrella"!

The small fleshy brown scale umbrellas and autumn helmets, which are not bright in color and not good in appearance, are also extremely toxic. But the equally beautiful orange goose paste is a famous edible fungus.

Is it toxic to grow in dark and humid places?

Some people say that edible non-toxic mushrooms mostly grow on clean grass or pine and oak trees; Poisonous mushrooms often grow in dark, wet and dirty corners.

This is also wrong!

All mushrooms tend to grow in "dark and humid" places, which has nothing to do with toxicity. Edible coprinus often "blooms" on animal dung such as cow dung; Many poisonous mushrooms, including "White Poison Umbrella", grow on the ground in clean forests.

Is it poisonous if you don't have maggots or insects?

In fact, the famous poisonous fungus, the leopard poison umbrella, is often eaten by slugs, and many poisonous species can also produce maggots.

Is it toxic that silver and garlic will turn black when boiled together?

In fact, mushroom toxins will not react with silverware, garlic, etc.

Wouldn't it be toxic to be injured, discolored, and juicy?

This is not absolute, for example, Lactarius matsutake, Lactarius eryngii and milk all turn blue green, but they are delicious edible mushrooms.

Is it poisonous only when there are warts on the cap, rings on the handle, and fungus trays?

Although the proportion of toxic species of such bacteria is large, it is not absolutely the case. Many poisonous fungi have no unique characteristics, for example, the mushroom with ordinary appearance is very poisonous.

What if I accidentally get poisoned?

1. Call an ambulance immediately;

2. Immediately induce vomiting. First, let the person who eats by mistake take a large amount of warm salt water, and then stimulate the pharynx with his fingers (preferably wrapped with a cloth) to promote vomiting, so as to reduce the absorption of toxins. Pregnant women should use emesis cautiously; If the poisoned person is in a coma, it is not advisable to induce vomiting artificially, which may cause suffocation;

3. Blanket insulation;

4. Send to the hospital immediately. People who have eaten the same mushroom together, whether they are sick or not, also need to go to the hospital immediately for inspection;

5. Keep samples of poisonous mushrooms. The remaining mushrooms eaten should be kept for inspection to find out the cause of poisoning.
