Mushrooms are food that stays in the middle between healthy and dangerous. They are tasty all the time, but it is necessary to have some knowledge before eating them. Many of the eatable mushrooms have poisonous doubles and if you can’t tell the difference you may be in trouble. Fortunately, the mushrooms sold in stores are grown in farms and therefore the danger of food poisoning is practically nonexisting. On the other hand, if you go on a hiking trip and intend to eat a wild mushroom, make sure that it is not poisonous. Bring with yourself a book about edible mushrooms, or a survival manual. Either way, it is best if you also travel with someone who has experience with wildlife and mushrooms.
ShellfishShellfish are tasty and good for the health. Still, you must keep in mind that there are more people allergic to seafood than to anything else. If this food is not part of your everyday meal, then don’t eat a large quantity on one meal. Keep in mind that shellfish spoils quickly if not stored properly. If you buy it from the fisherman’s market, then purchase from a tradesman that offers fresh products every day. If you buy them deep frozen, then cook and consume as soon as the defrost is over.
Brazil nuts generally are good for the health and the thyroid. The selenium inside the brazil nut makes it so healthy and dangerous in the same time. When eaten in large amounts or for a prolonged time the selenium remains in the body and may damage the health permanently or even lead to death. There may be many articles to help you learn a lot about nuts, but this is something I first learned from House MD.
