The Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) of FAO and WHO confirmed that the artemisinin component will directly lead to liver cancer. . . Estriol and its metabolites have been proved to be mutagens in bacterial experiments and can cause liver cancer in mice. However, the existing toxicity studies are not enough to give the daily allowable intake. The Committee suggested that the potential carcinogenicity of this substance should be studied for a long time before determining the daily allowable intake. "(World Health Organization, 198 1). In the oil of sweet basil (the seed of this plant is Gleditsia sinensis), the content of Artemisia brain is 20%-43%. If calculated by 30%, the safe intake of basil oil per day for a person weighing 50 kg should not exceed 8 mg. According to the online introduction, the fat content of 10g Gleditsia sinensis seeds is 1.9g. That is to say, if you eat 10g a day, the intake of basil oil is1.9g, which is equivalent to 1900mg, which is more than 200 times the recommended standard of the European Union. But if you eat 10G bright seeds every day, you will eat 1900mg carcinogen, which is more than 200 times of the safety standard. Consequences . . In 2000, the European Commission of Experts on Flavoring Substances (CEFS) concluded that Artemisia scoparia is a natural product, which has genotoxicity and carcinogenicity to experimental animals after long-term contact or repeated use. In human experiments, if the intake dose is 1 μ g/kg body weight (equivalent to normal human exposure), the known carcinogen 1 '- hydroxyestriol can be detected from urine samples. In order to judge the risk of estriol more accurately, it is suggested that rats and mice of different sexes should be observed for a long time with different doses. At the same time, the recommended maximum intake is 0.05mg/kg.
