近日,广东省回应网友建议禁止销售槟榔上了热搜。广东省委办公厅信息综合室在人民网领导留言板上回应称,网友反映的关于禁止销售槟榔的问题已转相关部门阅研。
《2021-2026年槟榔行业深度分析及投资价值研究咨询报告》显示,我国槟榔消费者已经超1亿。一项刊登在《中国牙科研究杂志》的论文预测,到2030年全国将有超过100万人因嚼食槟榔而患上口腔癌。
Over 1 million people might get mouth cancer by 2030 because of betel according to a journal published in Chinese Journal of Dental Research.
9月10日,歌手傅松因口腔癌(oral cancer)过世,终年36岁。据了解,湖南籍的傅松很爱嚼槟榔(betel nuts),其口腔癌就是槟榔导致的。
今年6月,傅松透露,自己口腔癌复发三次,还向网友展示自己的伤口,整个左脸溃烂。他痛苦地表示,自己最大的幸福是希望夜晚的时候伤口不疼,这样他就能睡个好觉。此外,他还劝喜欢嚼槟榔的网友不要抱着侥幸的心理,要远离槟榔。
Before his death from mouth cancer on Sept 10, Fu Song, a 36-year-old singer, warned the world to stay away from betel nuts, a carcinogenic substance he chewed regularly; in fact he was so addicted he could not give it up even after his diagnosis.
傅松的离世为各地敲响了警钟。据报道,今年9月中旬以来,浙江义乌、四川营山等地相继发文要求,食品经营者不得将槟榔制品作为食品销售。
His death triggered calls for banning betel products. Reports say betel nut sellers in Yiwu, Zhejiang province, have been asked to remove all betel products from their sales list, while Yingshan county in Sichuan province has banned it altogether.
Research studies have revealed the serious impact of chewing betel nut on oral health, which includes tooth decay, a permanent discolouration of teeth and loss of jaw mobility. Once your gums start to get affected, it can gradually increase the risk of oral cancer. A study published in the American Society for Clinical Nutrition mentions the heightened risk of oral submucous fibrosis in people who consume betel nuts daily.
Eating betel nut not only affects health but it also slows down the efficacy of any medication. So, if you want to restore and maintain good health, the best you can do is avoid betel nuts. Alarmingly, betel nut addiction has proved hard to get rid of completely.
The American Food and Drugs Association has revealed that when betel nut is combined with tobacco, the user’s risk of oral cancer, throat cancer, oral submucous fibrosis and breathing problems increases significantly.
Excessive chewing of betel nut has a narrowing effect on your airways, which can lead to asthma and emphysema.
Regular use of betel nut is damaging for the heart. It can increase your heart rate, which is a common risk factor for heart issues. If you are already suffering from heart-related problems then it is better to eliminate its use completely.
Betel nuts have a scraping and irritating effect on your oral mucosa. It also increases acid secretions in your stomach. Consequently, habitual chewing of betel nut can lead to mouth ulcers and stomach ulcers.
《健康口腔行动方案(2019-2025年)》提到,在有咀嚼槟榔习惯的地区,以长期咀嚼槟榔对口腔健康的危害为重点,针对性地开展宣传教育和口腔健康检查,促进牙周、口腔黏膜病变等疾病早诊早治。
2019年3月7日,湖南省槟榔食品行业协会发布通知,要求所有槟榔企业即日起停止国内全部广告宣传,且必须在3月15日前全部完成此项工作。2021年9月17日,国家广播电视总局办公厅发布通知,要求停止利用广播电视和网络视听节目宣传推销槟榔及其制品。
In 2019, the Hunan provincial betel society required all companies to suspend advertisements featuring betel products, a ban that was extended by the National Radio and Television Administration in 2021.
Thailand, Singapore, Canada and Australia have banned betel products.
