When it comes to "overnight," it's like magic.

Add it to any food and everything becomes the root of all evil.

Especially now that it is summer, unlike humans, bacteria prefer this sultry heat.

However, if you cook too much, you can’t eat that much, and feel that it is a waste. Therefore, some people will be more economical and choose to keep it for the next day to heat it up and continue to eat, but they don’t know that eating overnight dishes will affect people’s health and even cause serious diseases.

What counts as an overnight meal?

Whether you can eat leftovers overnight depends on how you store them properly.

Especially in this big summer, if the leftovers are left at room temperature like this...the next day, the taste is just... sour!

Especially the following overnight dishes are more prone to bacterial contamination:

First, overnight seafood

Seafood is the favorite of many people. Crabs, shrimps, shellfish, and fish taste very delicious, but at the same time, they are also very perishable foods.

Because seafood is very rich in protein, it is easy to cause bacterial poisoning if it is not stored properly. They have some bacteria and perishable substances in them. If they are left for too long, these unfavorable factors will grow. In addition, the coldness of seafood will cause some gastrointestinal diseases.

Second, overnight soft-hearted eggs

Half-boiled eggs are called soft-hearted eggs, and many people like this special egg texture. But after all, some of the eggs are still undercooked, and there are bacteria or parasitic eggs in them, which will pose a risk of Salmonella infection.

Once a person is infected with these bacteria, symptoms such as fever, high fever, headache and fatigue will occur, and even local ulcers or necrosis of the intestine will occur. Soft-hearted eggs are not easily digested, and overnight prevention can also lead to diarrhea. One of these substances is called biotinoids, which can affect the body's absorption of protein.

Undigested protein will produce toxic substances in the large intestine due to Escherichia coli, and some of it will enter the liver, which may increase the burden on the liver.

Therefore, you must eat eggs carefully, and it is best to discard them.

As for fully hard-boiled eggs, if you refrigerate them in time, you don't have to worry about them overnight, and they can even be eaten for 3-4 days.

Third, overnight leafy greens

It is rumored on the Internet that overnight vegetables can breed nitrite, which can cause cancer.

However, compared with meat, vegetables themselves have more nitrates, and it is indeed easier to produce nitrites, but the amount is not large. Even if the nitrites are not exceeded overnight, there is no need to worry.

The real concern is that if the overnight dishes are not stored properly, they will be more susceptible to bacterial contamination.

Vegetables are rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, such as lettuce, cabbage, lettuce, and small greens, which are very popular among people. But overnight green vegetables not only look ugly, but also tend to breed bacteria, oxidize, and lose nutrients.

As for those soy milk, white fungus soup, seafood... whether you can eat it overnight or not, the key depends on your preservation method.

Overnight dishes can cause disease, and the most important thing is bacteria

Food is originally rich in abundance. If it is placed for a long time (8-12 hours), if there is bacterial contamination, as long as the temperature and humidity are suitable, it will rapidly multiply and grow, causing food spoilage.

Once eaten, it may cause foodborne poisoning.

Overnight dishes have a lot to do with storage time and conditions. In daily life, we need to clean the refrigerator regularly, store different types separately, put them in the refrigerator to cool thoroughly, and warm them thoroughly before eating.

It’s better to make it now and eat it while it’s fresh. It’s not wasteful and healthy, and develops good eating habits.

If you say, you don't have a refrigerator at home?

Then, except for the cool white, throw everything else away!
