Many people prefer steaks with blood. This undercooking degree means that red fibers remain on the piece. But it is important to understand that such a dish cannot be called safe.
Still, undercooked steaks can be harmful to your health.
This statement was made by surgeon Alexander Umnov in a conversation with representatives of the publication “ Life ”.
According to him, such a product could be a source of bacterial infection.
Usually, after freezing and well-roasted, most bacteria die, but if we talk about Medium or Medium Rare roasting, then the risks only increase.
Even if the meat is of high quality and does not contain parasites, it is often still not possible to eat steaks with blood.
Raw fibers contain purine bases, which turn into uric acid and cause gout or urolithiasis.
Therefore, such a dish should be eaten rarely, the product should be selected from trusted places, and when cooking, the meat should be well-done.
