Abstract: Introducere. Deşi în alimentaţie şi în tratamentele tradiţionale plantele sunt extrem de utile, ele pot fi şi dăunătoare. De asemenea, poate deveni periculoasă folosirea altor părţi ale plantei decât cele cunoscute ca având efecte terapeutice. De aceea este necesar să cunoaştem modul de administrare al plantelor medicinale, dar şi felul de pregătire şi consum. Scopul lucrării. Evidenţierea celor mai utilizate plante din alimentaţia noastră cotidiană cu potenţial toxic. Material şi metode. Sinteza şi analiza datelor bibliografice referitoare la produsele vegetale ce se utilizează în alimentaţie si evidenţierea celor care 3 S S conduc la o eventuală intoxicaţie şi măsurile care pot fi întreprinse pentru a evita manifestările neplăcute. Au fost analizate top 15 alimente vegetale descrise de Environmental Working Group. Rezultate. Acidul cianhidric din seminţele rozaceelor, solanina din cartofii păstraţi necorespunzător, aflatoxinele prezente în alimente pot avea efecte letale. La fel şi glutenul din cereale poate provoca alergii, iar grapefruitul consumat concomitent cu medicamente, interacţionând cu Citocromul P450, conduce la o intoxicaţie medicamentoasă. Concluzii. Unele plante sunt folosite în mod salutabil, dar pentru a preveni ingerarea fitotoxinelor este necesar de a informa populaţia cu privire la toxicitatea alimentelor. Aceasta va promova încrederea consumatorilor în alimentaţia bogată în fructe şi legume, dar inofensivă.
Introduction. Although plants are extremely useful in alimentation and traditional medicine, they can also be harmful. Moreover, the use o f plant’s parts that are not defined as medicinal vegetable products may be dangerous. That is why it is highly important to be aware of their intake ways as well as their processing and consumption. The aim of the study was to highlight the most widely distributed plants in our daily diet, which may be potentially toxic. Material and methods. Synthesis and analysis of bibliographical data concerning vegetable products used in alimentation were applied in this research as well as analyzing the reasons that lead to potential poisoning and measures that can be undertaken in order to avoid unpleasant consequences. Also, it has been analysed, the top 15 vegetable foods with increased doses of pesticedes, according to Environmental Working Group. Results. Hydrocyanic acid present in the Rosaceae seeds, solanine appeared from the improperly stocked potatoes and aflatoxins in food can cause a lethal outcome. Likewise, cereal gluten can cause allergies. Simultaneous consumption o f drugs and grapefruit leads to drug intoxication because o f the interaction with Cytochrome P450. Conclusions. Some plants are consumed by people to improve health. It must suffice to inform population about potential food toxicity in order to prevent the consumption of phytotoxins. This will promote people’s eagerness to keep a safe diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
