Before buying juicy and bright berries or fruits, there is always a desire to try them.
Especially if the shopping is done at the market, where everything looks delicious and beautiful, and a kind seller offers to taste the cherries or strawberries before buying the delicacy.
But doctors recommend not to try products at the market.
Gastroenterologist Vladimir Neronov spoke about this in more detail in an interview with RIA Novosti .
As the expert noted, unwashed food products cause various diseases.
For example, if you eat dirty fruit, you can catch Botkin's disease or encounter viral hepatitis A.
The chances of catching the disease increase for those who often vacation in Thailand, India, Turkey, Egypt, Mexico. Therefore, it is important to make an appointment with a doctor in advance and get the necessary vaccinations before your vacation.
Neronov added in a conversation with journalists that if a person does not observe simple safety measures, wash berries and fruits, forget to wash their hands, and so on, then symptoms may appear in 2-4 weeks. This includes nausea, heaviness in the stomach, vomiting. The skin, urine, and whites of the eyes turn yellow.
