To eat prey, poisonous snakes must go through stages:

Shut up and accumulate toxic substances : During this period, snakes escaped to the fasting cave to secrete and accumulate venom. Many poisonous snakes have many venom and venom too toxic, making snakes have to drown into the water to detoxify themselves.

Hunting : When the venom reaches its peak in quality and quantity, the snake comes out hunting. Some species are welcome, there are species actively chasing, hunting bites. They inject most of the venom into the prey to soon paralyze the nerve and kill the prey.

Digesting prey : When swallowing prey, snakes into dark cave slowly digesting food and of course they also digest their own venom. In order to adapt and digest bone meat of prey, in the esophagus, the stomach and intestines of the snake secrete various types of fluids and enzymes capable of neutralizing toxins. The toxin is absorbed back into the blood and then filtered to accumulate back into the venom container.

Thus, when eating snake meat in the period of high levels of toxins in the blood, high meat and unprocessed, accidentally accidentally swallowed the poison of the snake. The highest risk is solid drink, solid bile, solid bone fracture.

Snake venom causes two harms: large amounts of poisoning die immediately; small amounts cause cardiovascular stimulation (feeling of acute energy) and also cause necrosis of wounds, scratches and inflamed spots (especially in the gastrointestinal tract). People with gingivitis, pharyngitis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, intestinal necrosis, hemorrhoids . are more susceptible to poisoning venom, resulting in necrosis and anaerobic infection.

There are cases of solid bone tumors that cause long-term necrosis and lead to throat cancer. Most of these cases were too late in the hospital and had serious complications, so the mortality rate was very high.

In addition to snakes, some other food fads also pose a health risk:

Eat scorpions, crickets

The content of protid in these animals' bodies is not high but many people like them because they want to be considered sophisticated in cuisine. Their bone shells are chitin, very hard and resistant to acids. When in the gastrointestinal tract, if not chewed well, these chitin fragments can damage the gastric mucosa, causing ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding. The most dangerous is for young children, the gastrointestinal tract is still weak. Many cases when taken to the hospital were ragged of the small intestine and colon.

Eat insects, jellyfish porridge

Many patients are allergic to these items, hospitalized. There are cases of cardiac collapse, severe urinary retention, death on the emergency.

Drinking rabbit blood
