Do not drink beer while eating seafood

It's quite common for many people to enjoy a cold beer while eating seafood. However, what many don't realize is that this combination can pose serious health risks, especially when it comes to conditions like gout, gallstones, and kidney stones. Seafood is rich in protein and low in fat, but it also contains purines and glycosides. Beer, on the other hand, contains vitamin B1, which acts as a catalyst in the breakdown of these compounds. When consumed together, the mixture of purines, glycosides, and vitamin B1 can trigger a chemical reaction in the body, leading to an increase in uric acid levels. This disrupts the body’s natural balance and, if not properly excreted, uric acid can accumulate and form crystals—leading to painful conditions like gout or kidney stones. In severe cases, it can cause redness, swelling, and even difficulty walking. As the saying goes, "A moment of greed can lead to a lifetime of pain." So, what should seafood lovers do? Besides avoiding beer while eating seafood, there are several additional steps you can take to protect your health: 1. **Boil the seafood first** and discard the broth, as it contains a lot of purines and glycosides. 2. **Drink plenty of water**—around 2000 to 2500 milliliters per day—to help flush out uric acid from the body. 3. **Pair your seafood with fruits and vegetables** rich in vitamins A, C, and E, which have antioxidant properties that can reduce the formation of urate crystals. However, avoid cauliflower, spinach, and mushrooms, as they are high in purines themselves. By making these small changes, you can still enjoy seafood without putting your health at risk. It's all about balance and awareness.

Thickening Agent

Thickening Agent, also known as rheological modifier/shaping agent/texture shaping agent/gelling agent/binder, is a new type of functional polymer material that has rapidly developed in recent years. It can improve the viscosity of the system and keep it in a uniform and stable suspended or cloudy state. Meanwhile, most thickeners also have emulsifying properties, which can alter the fluidity and texture of the product, making it easier to use and apply, and providing better stability.
