Never reheat these 7 foods, they may pσísσn your family
We all sometimes prepare more food than we are able to eat, and we usually leave the leftovers for tomorrow. The next day we usually reheat the food and eat it.
But some foods change their composition, lose important properties and can even become toxic after being reheated. Try to avoid reheating the following foods:
1. Mushrooms
Mushrooms are rich in proteins. They should be consumed the same day they are cooked. As they are enriched with proteins, their structure changes when reheated, which can be harmful to our body. When you eat reheated mushrooms, you put yourself at risk of digestive and even serous heart problems.
2. Chicken
Just like mushrooms, chicken is highly rich in proteins, which get negatively impacted by reheating. This can actually cause digestive troubles. If you really want to reheat cooked chicken, you can do that at low temperature for a longer duration.
3. Potato
Potatoes lose their nutritional value if reheated. Even if you let them rest at room temperature for a long time they can actually become toxic and cause nausea or illness, and even food pσísσning.
4. Spinach
Above all else, you ought to eat spinach just after it’s cooked Spinach is rich in nitrate, but when heated again the nitrate becomes nitrite. Nitrite is a carcinogen so it is recommended to consume only fresh spinach.
5. Beet
Just like with spinach, beets contain nitrate and is therefore dangerous to reheat. That does not mean you should avoid this food. It is simply not recommended to heat it again.
6. Celery
Celery is mainly used in soups. It also contains nitrate, so it is not recommended to heat it again as well. It is better, as it were, to remove the celery from the soup and warm it. Exactly the same thing goes for carrots also.
7. Eggs
A morning staple and powerhouse of protein, reheating eggs at a high temperature can make them toxic which can cause havoc in your digestive tract.
