Which was affected by consuming raw fish bile. His friends are very sorry for their lack of knowledge and almost putting someone else’s life in danger.
“Fish bile” is more poisonous than arsenic, but many people still believe it is a tonic.
According to Dr. Zhu Tian, a doctor from the hospital’s emergency department, many people mistakenly believe that consuming raw fish bile is an “elixir of life.” In fact, fish bile is a highly toxic organ, filled with dangerous toxins. Just 1 gram of fish bile can cause severe poisoning. Especially in larger fish, where the toxin content is even greater.
Fish bile is the gallbladder of fish, which is located in the belly of the fish body. It stores bile secreted from the liver and pancreas of the fish and plays a role in digestion. Consuming fish bile is a serious food poisoning because it contains cholic acid, taurocholic acid, cyanide, water-soluble sodium capryl sulfate, histamine and other toxins. The most dangerous substance is “cyanide” which is more toxic than the poison of arsenic (arsenic) in equal amounts.
“These toxins cannot be destroyed by boiling or cooking, or even drinking alcohol. So whether it is fish bile that has been steamed or fresh fish bile that has been soaked in alcohol. It can still cause poisoning. It can cause many serious effects, for which there is no specific antidote. And it can even cause death,” the doctor said .
People who are poisoned by fish bile usually have a short incubation period, between 30 minutes and 6 hours, with symptoms such as stomach pain, vomiting, jaundice, difficulty urinating, and eventually leading to multiple organ failure. If not treated in time, it can progress to shock and death. Therefore, fish bile should not be consumed in any form.
