"Gold-plated food" is poisonous, say "no" to the wind of eating gold

Recently, online media exposed that some merchants produce and operate "gold foil food".

In essence, the "net celebrity phenomenon" of consumers blindly pursuing gold and silver foil powder agricultural products is mainly due to the fact that consumers do not fully understand gold and silver foil powder

Improper use of gold and silver foil powder promotes extravagance

Gold has excellent ductility and ductility, second only to platinum, and is one of the most ductile metals

The health and safety hazards of gold and silver foil powder cannot be ignored

It is not necessary to add gold and silver foil powder to food or edible agricultural products

On the one hand, gold has excellent corrosion resistance, but it does not mean that it cannot be absorbed by the human body

On the other hand, gold itself is not an essential element for the human body, and there is absolutely no need to eat it

The risk of heavy metal impurities in gold and silver foil powder is always present

What's more, 100% "pure gold" does not exist in the real world
