Can it be prevented
Come and learn about it quickly
What is "wide bean disease"
"Broad bean disease" is glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency". The lack of G6PD, an enzyme, will lead to a decrease in the production of substances that maintain the stability of the red blood cell membrane, making red blood cell unable to resist oxidative damage, and eventually lead to red blood cell destruction and hemolysis.

glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is an X chromosome-linked genetic disease. Its disease is often induced by 's mistaken eating broad beans, commonly known as "broad bean disease".
Why does "Broad bean disease"
"Broad bean disease" is different from general sensitivity. belongs to the genetic defect and is inherited by parents to children. The red blood cell membrane in these people's blood is naturally lacking an enzyme called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). Some oxidative substances contained in broad beans can easily cause acute hemolytic jaundice and hemolytic anemia , and broad beans become a fatal "toxic".

html l0 "Broad bean disease" about 400 million people are affected worldwide, and more men than women. The incidence rate in southern regions such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou is high in recent years.Guangxi G6PD deficiency gene carrier rate exceeds 15%, with an incidence rate of 8%-11%, and in some regions as high as 20%, ranks first in the country.
Symptoms of "Broad bean disease"
1. Initial symptoms
1. Initial symptoms
vascular hemolysis occurs within 1-2 days, and it is fierce, manifested as general discomfort, pale face, slightly hot, dizzy, and fatigue. Weakness, anorexia, abdominal pain, nausea, deepening urine color, etc.
2. Subsequent symptoms

3. Complications
3. Complications
3. Vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain, enlargement of liver, and abnormal liver function, about 50% of patients splenomegaly . In severe cases, it may lead to coma, shock , and systemic failure. If first aid is not timely, life will be in danger.
"Broad bean disease" prevention
When parents give their babies the first time to eat broad beans, they should pay special attention to their children's reactions. If they experience symptoms of general discomfort, fatigue, and darkening urine after eating broad beans, they must take their children to the hospital in time.
In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to:
1. When broad beans are pollinated and mature, parents should avoid taking their children to the broad bean field.
2. Purchase camphor The pills cannot choose products containing naphthalene.
3. When taking the child to medical treatment, bring the G6PD biochemical enzyme activity test and the G6PD gene test results. You must clearly tell the doctor that the child is a patient with "broad bean disease". Please ask the doctor to take the medicine reasonably.
4. The baby has a history of medical treatment. Drink more water, contact the sun more frequently, and pay attention to daily care.
Foods that should not be eaten:
"broad bean disease" cannot be eaten pearl powder , honeysuckle , coptis chinensis, beef husk , wintersweet flowers, bear galls, and infant protection pills. Remember to fast for broad beans or broad bean processing products. Avoid going to the broad bean field during the blooming, fruiting or harvesting season. As for other fruits and vegetables, it is generally not prohibited.
Items that should not be touched:
1. Prohibited items less contact
0 Daily necessities that are prohibited: camphor , stinky pill , holly oil , pigment, mint paste, thrash wine (including beef yeast), white flower oil , panacea oil, etc.
2. Be careful of pesticide spray
Some pesticide sprays can dissolve blood, so pay special attention when using it.
3. Do not use oxidative drugs
. It is not advisable to take oxidative drugs, such as primary quinoline, sulfonamides, furans, vitamin K3, vitamin K4, fenacidine , aminopyrin , sulfone and other drugs.
Because "fava bean disease" is hereditary and corresponding risk of disease, it is recommended that pregnant couples and/or newborns undergo screening for G6PD enzyme deficiency and gene detection .
