It's True! You Eat Poison Every Day - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: hat’s not all. There are poisons in the fruitbowl and the pantry. You could die of coffee poisoning, salt poisoning or potato poisoning. Why don’t you? Because you don’t eat or drink enough of them. We know that 100 cups of coffee, 250 grams (9 ounces) of salt or 200 kilograms (440 pounds) of potatoes will kill an adult if taken all at once. There’s cyanide in apple pips – not a lot, but enough to give pips a bitter taste. Enough to kill a really determined apple-pip chomper. Even the oxygen we need to breathe can be lethal – pure oxygen, that is. If you breathe pure oxygen, your Vitamins, anyone? Australian explorer Douglas Mawson led an expedition to the Antarctic. He and two companions, Belgrave Ninnis and Xavier Mertz, were struggling back to base camp when Ninnis fell into a deep crevasse. With him went the sledge containing most of the food. Mawson and Mertz soon had nothing left to eat but their husky dogs. The meat was stringy, so they ate the soft livers, which were easier to chew. They became very ill – dizzy, nauseous and irritable. Strips of their skin and hair peeled away, and so did the soles of Mawson’s feet. Mertz died before they got back to base, and Mawson nearly did. We now know that the dogs’ livers contained large amounts of Vitamin A – far too much for a human to eat safely. Mawson learned the hard way that we all need a small amount of Vitamin A, but too much will kill us.آیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
