Nutritionist names dangerous consequences of unwashed berries
Some people try to taste berries before buying them. As a result, they boldly eat a couple of berries in the store or at the market. But you can’t do that.
In addition, many summer residents can pick a berry from a bush and eat it while working in the garden. And this is dangerous.
Dr. Alla Poniatkina spoke about this in more detail in an interview with Gazeta.Ru .
She reminded that berries that are not washed before consumption contain various bacteria on their surface, which can provoke a lot of unpleasant diseases.
Viruses enter through contact with dirty water, soil, and can also be carried by animals and insects.
As a result, a person risks encountering hepatitis A, salmonellosis, dysentery, and so on.
Ponymatkina emphasized that this is precisely why one should not eat fruits that have not been thoroughly washed beforehand.
She also added that for more thorough cleaning, you can use special products for washing berries.
