It becomes important to differentiate between fake and real, especially when it comes to food and drink. During the month of Diwali, people buy almonds either for their home or to gift someone. There is no doubt that all the nutritious elements found in almonds can prove to be a boon for your overall health. But if these almonds are fake, then your health can be badly damaged. Therefore, it is very important to check the quality of almonds.
Follow this procedure
To increase the color and shine of almonds, chemicals are mixed in them. By eating such adulterated almonds, you may have to face serious health problems. First of all drain the water in a clean bowl. Now dip a handful of almonds in this water and leave it overnight. Keep in mind that the quantity of water should not remain less.
Are almonds adulterated or pure?
Next morning, take out the almonds from water and peel them. If the peel of the almond comes off easily and the skin of the almond appears white inside the peel, then the possibility of adulteration in the almond reduces to a great extent. If the color of almond water remains clear, then there is no adulteration in the almonds. If the color of almond water has turned brown, then understand that there are chemicals in almonds.
Side effects of eating adulterated dry fruits
If you are also taking the adulteration of dry fruits lightly, then you must know about the side effects of eating them. Eating adulterated almonds can badly damage your gut health. To avoid health related problems, it is very important to say goodbye to adulterated almonds. Almonds containing chemicals can also cause allergies.
