What Is Protein Poisoning?

Some people, such as those who are physically weak, those with advanced illness, those who have recently recovered from their illness, those who have been chronically hungry, and women who are pregnant, etc., will experience abdominal distension and nausea if they eat a lot of protein foods (eg eggs, lean meat, dairy products, etc.) , Headache, dizziness, fatigue and weakness of the limbs, etc. In severe cases, there will be exacerbations, coma in shock, and even death. Modern medicine calls this the "protein poisoning syndrome."

Proteinosis syndrome

Some people, such as those who are physically weak, those with advanced illness, those who have recently recovered from their illness, those who have been chronically hungry, and women who are pregnant, etc., will experience abdominal distension and nausea if they eat a lot of protein foods (eg eggs, lean meat, dairy products, etc.) , Headache, dizziness, fatigue and weakness of the limbs, etc. In severe cases, there will be exacerbations, coma in shock, and even death. Modern medicine calls this the "protein poisoning syndrome."

For those who are physically weak, those who are seriously ill, those who have recently recovered from severe illness, those who are chronically hungry, and mothers, etc., the digestion, absorption, and metabolic functions of the same organs such as liver, gallbladder, and stomach and intestines are weakened due to various reasons. If you eat a lot of protein food at this time, a large amount of protein accumulates in the gastrointestinal tract, abnormally ferments and spoils in the gastrointestinal tract, decomposes and produces a large amount of ammonia, and the increase in blood ammonia is very harmful to the human body. Excessive blood ammonia can cause dizziness ,coma. At the same time, incompletely digested and absorbed proteins ferment and spoil in the gastrointestinal tract, decompose and produce a large number of harmful hydroxyl, phenol, indole and other toxins, which have a great toxic effect on the human body, thereby showing the "protein poisoning syndrome". All kinds of clinical symptoms.

Egg poisoning has a lot to do with glutamic acid. Glutamic acid poisoning can occur half an hour after eating and last for several hours.

Consuming MSG 25 mg / kg body weight on an empty stomach, headaches, sweating, nausea, soft body, thirst, cheek flushing, abdominal pain and other symptoms will occur after 25-35 minutes, but these symptoms usually occur within a few hours disappear.

Eggs contain a lot of glutamic acid (the specific content of which has not been measured). After glutamic acid is absorbed by the human body, it affects the human body's metabolism. The food industry recommends that the concentration of glutamic acid in food is 0.2% -0.5%, and the allowable daily intake (AD1) per person is 0-120 g / kg (based on glutamic acid). Therefore, eating too much eggs will at least lead to glutamate poisoning.
