Introduction
After consuming a small amount of unclean fish or shellfish, mild nausea or abdominal pain may occur, or physical discomfort may be caused by exposure to wind-cold. In such cases, appropriately consuming perilla leaves cooked with eggs may help alleviate the discomfort and provide certain auxiliary effects by utilizing the properties of perilla leaves. At this time, it is necessary to observe the body's reaction; if symptoms improve, continued observation may be considered. However, for severe poisoning or issues caused by other toxins, detoxification may be difficult.

Generally, cooking eggs with perilla leaves may have a certain auxiliary detoxification effect for mild discomfort caused by slight cold invasion or consumption of fish and crab. However, it may not effectively detoxify in cases of severe poisoning or issues caused by other toxins. If abnormalities occur, prompt medical attention is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:

If mild nausea or abdominal pain occurs after consuming a small amount of unclean fish or crab, or if bodily discomfort is caused by exposure to cold, appropriately consuming eggs cooked with perilla leaves may help alleviate the discomfort due to the properties of perilla leaves and provide some auxiliary benefits. In such cases, monitor your body's response, and if symptoms improve, continued observation may be appropriate.

If severe food poisoning, drug poisoning, or contact with toxic substances leads to serious symptoms such as vomiting or coma, eggs cooked with perilla leaves will not be able to detoxify. Immediate first aid measures and medical treatment are required in these situations. Relying on dietary methods alone cannot eliminate toxins, and delays may worsen the harm.

Maintain good dietary hygiene and avoid contact with toxic substances. If symptoms suggesting poisoning occur, seek immediate medical attention. Do not rely solely on dietary interventions for self-treatment, and ensure timely access to professional medical care.
