Samyang turkey noodles in South Korea should be a fast food product that many young people love for ten minutes.
Compared to other instant noodles, Samyang turkey noodles have always been known for their spiciness.
There are amazing sweet and then spicy, there are double spicy that people can't stop trying to stop, and even triple spiciness turkey noodles that are daunting but can't help but challenge.
Relying on the unique "spicy" degree, Samyang turkey noodles have attracted a group of spicy lovers and occupied a piece of the world in the field of instant noodles in China.
But recently, Samyang turkey noodles have gotten into a bit of trouble.
Its most famous "spicy" overturned, and the capsaicin was exceeded, which may be harmful to the body.
According to media reports, South Korea's Samyang turkey noodles were urgently recalled by the Danish food regulator because of excessive capsaicin.
The three products are 2x spicy turkey noodles, 3x spicy turkey noodles, and another spicy noodle soup.
The Danish food regulator said it brought the product into a laboratory for testing after receiving a complaint from a consumer that the product was too spicy.
During the test, it was found that the capsaicin content of these three products was too high, which may be harmful to health and even cause acute poisoning in those who consume them.
Here's a science popularization of what is capsaicin?
Capsaicin is a food additive, but don't smell the discoloration first, this "food additive" is not the other "food additive".
Capsaicin is a green and natural food additive made from chili peel and its products through a special process.
In general, normal consumption of foods containing capsaicin usually does not cause serious harm to the body, but may bring some benefits, such as improving blood circulation.
However, excessive intake of capsaicin may cause some discomfort.
For example, the burning sensation and pain in the mouth and throat may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, which may have a more obvious impact on people with weak gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal diseases.
Studies have also shown that excessive intake of capsaicin may increase the risk of cancer, such as stomach cancer, esophageal cancer and liver cancer.
Because the spicy taste of capsaicin can stimulate the secretion of stomach acid, leading to acid reflux and damage to the esophageal mucosa, which can promote the growth and spread of cancer cells.
It can be seen that although capsaicin is good, it cannot be greedy.
The incident of Samyang turkey noodles being urgently recalled by the Danish Food Control Bureau due to excessive capsaicin content is actually relatively serious.
This can't help but remind people of another incident of Samyang turkey noodles exceeding the standard, that is, "hydrogen peroxide" exceeding the standard.
The reason is that some bloggers broke the news that South Korea's Samyang turkey noodles are engaged in double standards.
The same product was sold in Korea with a shelf life of 6 months, but in China, the shelf life has changed to 12 months.
Why does the shelf life of the same product in China increase by half a year? Could it be that Samyang has added some "high-tech" to the turkey noodles exported to China to extend the shelf life of instant noodles.
Some bloggers really sent the turkey noodles to a professional institution for testing, ready to explore the cats inside.
For this reason, the blogger specially selected the turkey noodles that have only expired for 2 months, who knows that there is no high-tech at all, and the hydrogen peroxide value of instant noodles has exceeded the standard.
In other words, it is expired, and Samyang is blatantly playing double standards.
So what are the consequences of long-term consumption of expired instant noodles?
Not only can it cause hair loss, but it can also induce stomach cancer.
In response, South Korea's Samyang Corporation issued an urgent statement, saying that the products had been tested by professional institutions and that no hydrogen peroxide value was found to exceed the standard, and all of them were compliant products.
However, I don't know how Samyang explained the shelf life of the products sold in China and South Korea by saying that the products used by Samyang for testing are still a few months away from their expiration date.
With the development of society, everyone is paying more and more attention to food safety issues, and more and more pursuing food with zero additives.
Developed by the China Astronaut Research and Training Center, the astronaut energy meal was originally mainly used for astronauts who accidentally lost contact with ground personnel during special circumstances or during the return journey and needed to live alone for a period of time.
The astronaut energy meal can also quickly replenish the energy of the astronaut's body, improve the astronaut's physical endurance, and provide energy for their body for 6 hours.
As an aerospace food, astronaut energy meals are also made of exquisite materials.
Made with imported oats, imported whey protein and pure cocoa butter.
Oats are rich in dietary fiber, which can not only promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, but also stabilize blood sugar and maintain metabolism.
And whey protein, as a high-quality protein extracted from milk, has always been known as the king of proteins.
Not only is it rich in nutrients and a variety of active substances, but it also promotes muscle growth and recovery, making it ideal for fitness enthusiasts.
Pure cocoa butter makes the astronaut energy meal more mellow and sweet.
The astronaut energy meal is not only nutritious, but also follows the aerospace hygiene requirements far higher than the national food industry standard, achieving 0 trans fatty acids, 0 preservatives, and 0 sucrose, which has little burden on the body.
