Beware Of Arsenic Poisoning In Foods by HerexG(m): 2:08pm On Jan 18, 2013
Please read if you eat shrimps - Very Educative:
A woman suddenly died unexpectedly with signs of bleeding from
her ears, nose, mouth & eyes.
After a preliminary autopsy it was diagnosed that death was due to
arsenic poisoning.
Where did the arsenic come from?
The police launched an in-depth and extensive investigation. A
medical school professor was invited to come to solve the case.
The professor carefully looked at the contents. In less than half an
hour, the mystery was solved.
The professor said: 'The deceased did not commit suicide and
neither was she murdered, she died of accidental death due to
ignorance!'
Everyone was puzzled, why accidental death?
The professor said: 'The arsenic was produced in the stomach of the
deceased.' The deceased used to take 'Vitamin C' everyday, which in
itself is not a problem.
The problem was that she ate a large portion of shrimp/prawn
during dinner. Eating shrimp/prawn is not the problem that's why
nothing happened to her family even though they had the same
shrimp/prawn. However at the same time the deceased also took
'vitamin C', that is where the problem was!
Researchers at the University of Chicago in the United States , found
through experiments, food such as soft-shell contain much higher
concentration of five
potassium arsenic compounds.
Such fresh food by itself has no toxic effects on the human body.
However, in taking 'vitamin C', chemical reaction occurs and the
original non-toxic elements change to toxic elements.
Arsenic poisoning has magma role and can cause paralysis to the
small blood vessels. Therefore, a person who dies of arsenic
poisoning will show signs of bleeding from the ears, nose, mouth &
eyes. Thus as a precautionary measure,
DO NOT eat shrimp/prawn when taking 'vitamin C'.
After reading this; please do not be stingy.
Its our duty to take care of our friends
