Spinach makes clothes brighter and whiter.

Last summer, I bought a lot of white T-shirts and shirts. Because I left them for nearly a year, I found that these clothes had yellow stains in some places, which made me feel depressed. Later, when my mother learned about this situation, she asked me to buy a handful of spinach, boil it in hot water, and then take it out and put it in water for later use. Then, she put the yellow stain in the spinach water and wiped it. After soaking for more than ten minutes, she took out her clothes and washed them with normal laundry procedures, and the clothes turned white again in an instant.

(According to the layout, the following two items can be put into the next issue) Plastic container for deodorizing tomato juice.

Many people have some plastic containers for food in their kitchens. However, due to the wide variety of food usually packaged, it is easy to have a cross smell or even a bad smell, which often makes people feel annoyed. Later, I learned that tomato juice can be used to deodorize this situation. The steps are as follows: first pour some tomato juice on the sponge, then wipe the tomato juice inside the container with the sponge, then clean the container and lid with warm water and detergent, then clean it with clean water, and put it in a cool and ventilated place to dry naturally. After two days, the smell in the plastic container is gone and can be reused at any time.

"Dangerous" foam tea

A few days ago, a doctor from Children's Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine told a case in Weibo: a 4-year-old child was diagnosed with acute intestinal obstruction after seeing a doctor. During the operation, the doctor found that the small intestine was blocked by a pile of colloidal objects. Under the doctor's inquiry, parents finally remembered that their children had a cup of bubble tea two or three days ago.

The doctor said that children under 3 years old are not good at chewing and like to swallow directly, so they are more prone to intestinal obstruction caused by foreign bodies, such as melon seeds with shells, dried radishes and pearls in milk tea, which are potentially dangerous. In addition, fresh persimmons and candied dates are also easy to cause intestinal obstruction in children. Children's digestive function is weak, and persimmon and candied dates contain tannic acid. After tannic acid reacts with gastric acid, it will form a water-insoluble block and cannot be digested.

Nutrition experts also suggest that preschool children should drink bubble tea as little as possible. Except that pearls are difficult to digest and easily inhaled into the trachea, trans fatty acids, saccharin, artificial colors and preservatives in milk tea are harmful to children.

These nutrients make the baby's eyes brighter.

Vitamin A: Vitamin A is an important raw material for synthesizing visual sensitive substances. Lack of vitamin A will reduce the ability of eyes to feel weak light, so that babies can't see clearly in the weak light environment. Supplementary sources: carrots, animal liver.

Taurine: Taurine is rich in human retina, which can improve visual function and promote the development of retina. At the same time, it can also improve the self-repair ability of human cornea and fight eye diseases. When taurine content in retina decreases, the structure and function of retina may be disordered, which is extremely unfavorable to visual development. Supplementary sources: animal liver, fish and shellfish.

Antioxidant: If the eyes are sensitive to light, they will be easily oxidized. At this time, you can supplement some antioxidants in time, such as vitamins O, E and lutein. Supplementary sources: dark green vegetables, vegetable oil and wheat germ.

Peanuts and allergies

Doctors at Mount Sinai Medical College in the United States recently found that expectant mothers eating peanuts during pregnancy may increase the probability of positive peanut allergy test after birth. Dr. Scott H.Sicherer, a pediatrician in this hospital, and others studied 503 infants who were born at 3- 15 months and had the possibility of peanut allergy, and analyzed whether the mother's consumption of peanuts during pregnancy was related to the baby's allergic test results.

The results show that the more peanuts the mother eats during pregnancy, the higher the possibility that the baby will be positive in the allergy test results. But that doesn't mean they are allergic to peanuts. Sichler also said that even if some mothers don't eat peanuts, their babies will have allergic reactions to peanuts in the future. Therefore, pregnant women still need to relax and eat healthily.
