We eat whatever we like without knowing their impacts on our health.

Do you believe that food like mushrooms can be very dangerous for our health? But if eaten incorrectly, even some of the healthiest foods, like honey, can have a deadly effect on our health.

We want to share some healthy foods that can be hazardous for our health if we’re not extra careful.

Meat, poultry, and seafood

point 23 |

When we grill meat, poultry, or seafood, the high temperature makes the proteins in the meat change and it becomes dangerous for your health.point 251 |

To avoid any health risks, you should cook your meat at a lower temperature.point 63 | The low temperature will reduce carcinogen build-up in your food.point 119 | You can also marinate the meat and flipping it frequently.point 168 | This can help minimize cancer-promoting compounds.point 213 |

Honey

Cashews

point 0 |

Eating raw cashews can have a deadly impact on our health, especially to those people who are allergic to poison ivy.point 207 |

We buy raw cashews at the store, but the truth is, they aren’t actually raw.point 64 | They’re steamed in order to remove a chemical called urushiol which can also be found in poison ivy.point 149 | If you found raw cashews out in nature, don’t even think about eating them, as little as a handful of raw cashews can seriously damage your health.point 272 |

Almonds

There are 2 different kinds of almonds: sweet and bitter. The bitter almonds contain large amounts of hydrogen cyanide and eating just 5 to 10 raw, can cause problems for adults and could have fatal consequences in children.

However, processed bitter almonds are safe to eat as long as all the hydrogen cyanide is extracted during the refining process. But, if you see an almond tree, don’t take the risk of eating its nuts.
