Assuming we all know the dangers of undercooked meat, tobacco, raw sea foods, and gun barrels in your mouth. Tempting as it is but should we really put these things in our mouth? Chefs, food scientists, nutritionists, and dentists advices us NOT to be very comfortable in eating these kind of foods; here are some list of things you shouldn’t be putting in your mouth.
There’s really nothing wrong in eating these dried up fruit as long as you chew it thoroughly unless you want to get an intestinal blockage. Dried apricot tends to reconstitute in your stomach when swallowed whole, and this may result to an emergency surgery. A case of a woman swallowing a whole dried apricot was reported in the British Medical Journal
.
Yum! But do you know that a king-cut prime rib contains 982 calories and 78 grams of fats?
Well, it does, the tenderized fat is the reason why the meat just seems to melt in the mouth.
Make sure that you wash the green salad you bought in the store. Don’t trust the labels telling you it’s pre-washed. Most of the outbreaks in food borne illnesses came from unwashed foods. Bacteria and E.Coli tends to thrive in lettuce as well as in eggs, fish, and meats.
The first chip can trigger the person to over eat. The feeling of satisfaction is never met, mostly in stressed person. It gives a psychological effect on the person, making them eat more and more.
Salmonella poisoning may result by eating raw chicken eggs, as well as undercooked eggs. Runny white eggs are the most dangerous part of an uncooked egg. It’s better to eat a thoroughly cooked egg.
Like other organ meats, liver contains high cholesterol and fats, and livers may also contain residues of chemicals and hormones fed to the livestock. A polar-bear’s liver can be lethal since it has toxic levels of Vitamin A.
We sometimes chew on our pens or pencils absentmindedly, but what we don’t know is we are causing tiny stress fractures to our teeth by doing such.
Besides from it looking gruesome, this may also cause some stomach upsets. You wouldn’t know where these insects came from and what they ate. Putting yourself in a very high risk possibility for intestinal problems. People tend to be adventurous and risky when traveling; these exotic food eaters get satisfaction from eating these kinds of foods. Fried insects like grasshopper are very popular in Bangkok. I’ve seen a lot of it when I had my vacation in Bangkok but I never dared to try it.
A mixture of frozen alcohol, sugar, and salt is bad for your liver, arteries, blood sugar, heart, digestion, and energy level. It can lower your blood sugar making you eat more.
Tongue studs can be dangerous since our tongue is laced with networks of blood vessels and nerves. Once you hit a blood vessel and it starts bleeding, this can be a cause of infection. Studs can also chip off your teeth and impairs speech ability.
Ice makes you teeth crack because it is crystal, so as to your tooth enamel. Colliding of two crystals will cause the cracking of your teeth eventually.

Health and Fitness
When people gain weight, we always tell ourselves to go on a diet, exercise, and live healthy. But we never actually do those things and we gain more pounds because we get depressed just by thinking we are getting fatter and fatter. I guess we don’t really get to lose weight because we don’t have the right reasons for it. So let me give a list of possible reason why we should start losing weight.
- If you keep on whining about how you always get tired easily and you think you are gaining weight, then you are probably right. So start listening to yourself and stop eating so much.
- There is more of me to bear is the bedroom translation of there is more of me to love. Meaning the fatter you get, the harder it is for and your partner in bed.
- If you are not doing anything or you are not working, try to exercise instead of watching TV and again eating too much.
- You don’t have to hear someone whispering if you paid for two for taking two seats in the bus or train.
- When you lose weight everything else lose fats including the suprapubic fat pad. So guys if your belly starts to shrink, then something will appear to have grown.
- The ability to reach more places to scratch will be a blast!
- The chance of getting a heart disease, diabetes, prostate cancer, depression, sleep apnea, impotence, back pain, joint problems, gallstones, low sperm count, and high blood pressure will surely decrease when you lose weight.
- For men, the probability of reaching the basketball rim increases.
- You will be able to get closer to women literally!
- The lesser risk of dying in a car accident since there is lesser weight to propel you into the windshield.
- You’ll remember that you used to weigh 20 pounds whenever you pick-up a 20-pound dumbbell.
- It would be a relief to have your pants fall down on their own, it’s a clothing cliché.
- Now you’ll be able to ride the Jet Ski, and a wakeboard with a lighter weight. And you can surf without worrying that the surf board might break in half. So pump it up and hit the beach.
- Our society does respect people who are able to lose weight. Even if you did it in a cool way or just the regular exercising and dieting way, as long as you were able to reach your goal. It means you are one heck of a responsible person.
