A number of ingredients found in processed foods can have an extremely toxic effect on human health and can cause serious health problems.

Poisonous foods

In today’s article we present an overview of some of the most toxic foods that you have in your kitchen without actually realizing it.

Nutmeg

Nutmeg has hallucinogenic effects. A mere 5.5 grams can cause convulsions and 8 grams can even trigger a seizure. And just one nutmeg a day is enough to develop psychosis.

Rhubarb

Rhubarb leaves are extremely toxic because they are full of oxalic acid, which can cause the formation of kidney stones.

Consuming a small amount can lead to serious health problems, but eating 5 kg of this plant can already have fatal consequences.

Potatoes

Potatoes with green skins are extremely toxic. These potatoes and their sprouts contain glycoalkaloids, which can cause diarrhea, coma and even death.

Tuna

Tuna is a highly toxic food because it contains mercury. If mercury reaches the brain, it can cause serious brain damage. According to the Food and Drug Administration,  women and children should completely avoid consuming tuna.

Almonds

There are two types of almonds: sweet and bitter. Bitter almonds contain hydrogen cyanide, and eating 7 out of 10 nuts can cause serious health problems in adults and even death in children.
