What happens if you eat leaky food

In life, we often encounter some troubles, especially troubles with food. Sometimes we fail to discover in time that some food packaging is leaking, but the children eat it. Sometimes it is fine, but sometimes it causes stomach pain, bloating or diarrhea, etc. If these phenomena occur, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to prevent it from getting worse.

What should I do if the food packaging leaks?

It is best not to eat food that has leaked. Inflatable packaging is generally filled with nitrogen, which serves to protect fragile food and prevent corrosion. Once it leaks, the food will oxidize and deteriorate when it comes into contact with the air. If the leak is short, it's ok. If it's long, the food inside cannot be eaten. The key point now is that you can't tell how long the leak has lasted, so there's no way to tell whether the food inside has gone bad. It's best not to eat it.

There are most common symptoms of food poisoning: violent vomiting, diarrhoea, accompanied by upper abdominal pain, leading to acute gastroenteritis.

How to treat acute gastroenteritis:

1. Stop eating and drinking, otherwise it will get worse. Generally speaking, if you have acute gastroenteritis, no one will ask you to eat or drink. You should starve yourself, eat less, and drink more water.

2. Eat mainly porridge and easily digestible pasta. Remember to add salt to the porridge and pasta to replenish the body's salt and prevent dehydration. You should also eat less of these things, eat them more often, and eat small meals frequently.

3. Drink more water, add honey or salt to the water to ensure the normal functioning of your body and avoid fainting. Drink boiled water at appropriate temperature and do not drink mineral water.

4. Eat something that helps digestion, such as hawthorn slices. There is also tangerine peel. Boil the tangerine peel or soak it in boiling water, and drink the tangerine peel soup, you will feel better.

5. Taking medicines, such as Shenqu, Metoclopramide, Jianweixiaoshi tablets, etc., are very effective for acute gastroenteritis. I found that Huoxiang Zhengqi Water is actually very good, but of course don’t try it randomly.

6. Generally speaking, you should also take cold medicine at the same time, because most acute gastroenteritis is caused by catching a cold, so cold medicine should also be taken appropriately.
