Fun Facts of Food: They are going to surprise you

The choice of our food is kept changing. Like season-wise we shift our food styles, cooking styles. But have you given a thought that these all foods can also have something else. 

Like we always say that this food will give you that nutrient and they will keep you hydrate and all. But like us, science doesn't think like us. They always found something else in foods. 

Like if how our body reacts to foods, how we know about the taste and smell, why do we react so fast after touching hot things. Science has all these answers but along with that, science also has given us why we react to spicy foods, what can cause us hallucination along with that they have given us many amazing facts about foods. 

We have eaten many foods to date. But we don't about their facts also. Which definitely blow our minds and in fact, it was a surprise for me also.

So, let's start with it

1. Nutmeg 

The great effect of nutmeg is it create hallucination. If you ingest a high amount of nutmeg then it will work as a hallucinogen. Because it contains the compound name of myristicin. Myristicin has an effect on Central Nervous System (CNS) and leads to hallucination. 

2. Chillies

Chilies actually don't burn your mouth it's only in your head. Chilies contain a compound named capsaicin which will actually have an effect on your brain not in your mouth. I know Right, chilies do not have any effect on your mouth and that's why whenever we eat spicy foods we feel like our mouth is on fire. Remember next time that it's not your mouth in fact it's your brain that is feeling spicy. 

3. Water bottle

Water bottles have an expiry date but it's really don't have any relation to water. Right, that sounds strange. The bottles can expire and after that, they will start leaking some chemicals in the water and that's why the water may taste a little less fresh. The water never gets expired.

4. Banana 

Banana and human beings are quite similar like they share 60% same DNA. We always thought humans are unique but guess what not in DNA at least. In the human body, there are almost 3 billion DNA in a person. Human genome functions similar to other organisms like we are 96% similar to chimps and 60% similar to banana research have found. 

5. Fast Food

Eating fast food every day will lead you to develop diseases of the liver. It all can happen because of fat and saturated fat. Fast food contains lots of fats in their item. If you eat fast food regularly for one month it will store all the fat in the liver and eventually, it will lead to hepatitis. Hepatitis is a condition of the liver that can cause by many reasons like virus, infection, or eating habits and the liver becomes inflamed. 

6. White chocolate 

White chocolate is only made up of some ingredient and the fact is they don't contain chocolate bars in it. Strange right, let me explain. White chocolate is only made up of milk, sugar, vanilla and cocoa butter, and other dairy product. But there is no use of a specific chocolate bar. Most chocolates are made up of cocoa beans, cocoa butter, milk, sugar. The ingredients are different for both the chocolates. 

7. Brown sugar 

We many time wonders that the difference between brown sugar and white sugar but guess what there is no difference between them. White sugar is all processed and they removed molasses from it. Meanwhile, in brown sugar, they add the molasses which were removed from white sugar. That's the only difference between both of them. 

8. Music

Music has an effect on the human mind. If you listen to high-frequency sounds it will lead you to eat more and you will think the food is sweet. On the other hand, if you will listen to slow frequency then you will eat less and in fact, the food will become bitter for you. 

They did surprise me, and I hope you will like this amazing fact about food. 

Stay healthy and stay safe
