Potatoes contain some toxic alkaloids, mainly solanine and mucormycol, but the toxic substances will decompose after being cooked at a high temperature of 170℃. Wild potatoes are highly toxic, and solanine poisoning can lead to headache, diarrhea, convulsions, coma and even death.

Generally, cultivated potatoes contain less than 0.2 mg/g of alkaloids, and generally more than 200 mg will lead to poisoning, which is equivalent to eating 1.4 kg of raw potatoes at one time. If potatoes are exposed to light during storage, they will turn green and toxic substances will increase; The purple eyes of germinated potatoes can also cause the accumulation of toxic substances, which is prone to poisoning incidents.
