Refrigerator is undoubtedly a very great invention. With it, you will no longer be afraid that food will be broken in a hot summer. But food will deteriorate after being stored for a long time, and the food in the refrigerator will not be sealed and isolated, it will smell, and what is more terrible is that it will breed some deadly bacteria.

The germs that breed in the refrigerator are more likely to be overlooked, because many people think that food is safe to put in the refrigerator and can be eaten with confidence. In fact, a kind of deadly germs that breed in the refrigerator is very terrible, not only harmful, but also specifically pick pregnant women and newborns.
And this kind of bacteria is very common.

This kind of bacteria that is particularly harmful to pregnant women and newborns is Listeria , and it exists in many foods.

Listeria's favorites are ice cream, seafood, vegetable salad and other raw and cold foods. Everyday people don't worry about the deterioration of these frozen foods.

Listeria grows and multiplies very fast in a frozen environment and survives for a long time. If you don't pay attention to protection, your refrigerator is likely to become the cradle of Listeria.

So, how to protect from Listeria?


Food should be reheated or cooked thoroughly


Although Listeria is terrible, it also has its nemesis, which is high temperature. Therefore, the food taken out of the refrigerator can be completely killed by high temperature treatment to avoid harm to family members.Those raw fruits and vegetables need to be cleaned carefully.

Don't let food stay in the refrigerator for too long


Long-term freezing can only ensure that the food is not moldy, but the taste and nutrition will be affected, and Listeria prefers long-term frozen food. When buying ingredients, you need to be in moderation. Now whether it is a vegetable market or a supermarket, it is open almost all year round. It is very convenient to buy ingredients. Fresh ingredients taste good and healthy. Another problem is that the frozen food you buy will be thawed during the journey, and when you get home and freeze it again, there are health hazards, especially for meat, which will become bad meat if it is frozen repeatedly, which is not good for your health.

Pay attention to summer diet


Almost every household will store ice cream and sorbet in the refrigerator, especially in summer, these delicious and cool ice cream and sorbet are very popular. Long-term frozen ice cream is easy to breed Listeria. Those who like to eat should pay attention to the storage method. The ice cream in the refrigerator must be stored in a separate drawer, not mixed with other things, and don’t store it for too long. Drinking more cold water is the best way to relieve heat and thirst.

Listeria is a very bad bacteria, because it has strong stealth ability and because it focuses on people with weak resistance. For example, the elderly and people with low immunity are easy to get recruited, especially pregnant women and newborns. Pregnant women will experience fever and abdominal pain after being infected with Listeria , leading to serious harm such as miscarriage and premature delivery. Newborns who are infected with Listeria in their mother’s stomach will probably not see the world at all, even if they are born smoothly, they will get sick. The common disease is sepsis, and the fatality rate is extremely high. Such dangerous Listeria must be taken seriously.
