Have you ever thought of making tomato paste and fruit leather out of your crushed and watery fruits?
Or use low-quality lemons to get lemon juice?
Or, have you ever opened the refrigerator door and seen moldy parts of some fruit, thinking that you can only remove the spoiled part and consume the rest?
You may think to yourself that washing and removing moldy parts, or cooking fruit will help recover its health!
But you need to know that these fruits contain a toxin called patulin, which is heat-resistant and does not disappear even with cooking and pasteurization, and can be transferred to fruit-based food products.
Patulin can cause cancer, increase male infertility, and abnormality in the fetus.
So if you care about your health, don't use these deteriorated fruits and don't buy products that are sold under the name of homemade and that have no supervision.
