Chapter 36: Scurvy
When Heungwoo woke up the next day, he saw that Mia, who had been crazy yesterday, was still asleep. Xingyu looked at Miya with pity, and unconsciously carefully appreciated every detail of Miya. Xingyu looked at it and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Xingyu noticed that small red spots appeared in many places on the skin of Mia's thighs. Heung-woo immediately leaned in to take a closer look, and Mia woke up at that moment. Mia found Heungwoo staring at her thighs, and immediately blushed. Miya noticed that Xingyu was fascinated, but she didn't realize that she had woken up, and continued to stare at her thighs, and immediately yelled shyly: "What are you doing!" Early in the morning, they don't do good things. But Xingyu frowned solemnly and leaned over to open Mia's lips. Xingyu saw that Mia's gums were slightly bloodshot, and immediately pulled down Mia's eyelids worriedly. Under Mia's eyelids, a trace of black blood appeared.
Miya was puzzled by Xingyu's actions, and asked angrily, "What are you doing?" Are you sick or am I sick? Xingyu said in a worried tone, "You seem to have signs of scurvy." Xingyu then said, "Strange! You are obviously basking in the sun, how can you still be like this? Hearing Xingyu say this, it was Miya's turn to wonder: "What does scurvy have to do with the sun?" Xingyu replied puzzledly: "Sunlight can supplement vitamin C!" When Miya heard this, she stared at Xingyu in shock: "Your chemistry class was taught by the physical education teacher!" Sunlight is a vitamin D supplement, not vitamin C. ”
"Ahh I was mistaken. Xingyu didn't know until he had made a mistake with vitamins: "Alas! I'm a chemical idiot. Where can I get vitamin C? Xingyu looked at Mia anxiously. Mia immediately said like an endorsement: "Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin. Vitamin C is widely found in fresh vegetables and fruits. Foods rich in vitamin C include tomatoes, pumpkin, kiwifruit, peppers, carrots, oranges, grapefruit, sweet potatoes... ”
"Stop! Stop! Stop...! Xingyu heard Miya talk endlessly like a top student, and immediately said with a big head: "Of course I know that fruits are rich in vitamin C." But where do we go to find fruit? What's in the sea that has vitamin C? Miya glanced at Xingyu angrily: "I was just about to speak, but you shouted to stop." Fish eggs, fish liver, and fish brains all have vitamin C. In fact, cod liver contains various vitamins, but the amount is very small. ”
Xingyu looked at Miya in surprise, and when he remembered that Miya had fish, he would keep fish eggs. Xingyu always thought that Miya didn't want to waste it, but now he understands that Miya has long noticed the problem of vitamin C. Thinking of this, Xingyu blamed himself in annoyance: "I always thought that you didn't want to waste, so you kept the fish eggs." I'm afraid you won't get used to it, and I've eaten most of the eggs. As a result, you are deficient in vitamin C. Xingyu remembered that Miya said that fish liver and fish brain have vitamin C, so he said categorically: "In the future, you will eat fish eggs and fish liver, and I will eat fish brain." At this time, Xingyu noticed Miya's gaze wandering, and Xingyu immediately glared at Miya with his mouth wide as if he wanted something. I saw Mia weakly say, "Hehe! Don't you notice the fishy smell in the chocolate water? Miya then teased Xingyu: "Men really love to eat fishy." ”
Hearing this, Xingyu immediately understood that Miya gave himself most of the vitamin sources. No wonder Mia has signs of scurvy. Thinking of this, Xingyu's eyes immediately turned red. Xingyu hugged Miya tightly excitedly, and his eyes were involuntarily wet. Who said that girls nowadays have princess disease, it's just that careless men don't find out about women's silent dedication.
After Xingyu learned from Miya about supplementing vitamins, he understood in his heart that although cod liver contains various vitamins needed by the human body. But the portion size is too small, unless there is a large amount of cod liver available. Otherwise, it is only a supplement, which is not enough for the normal needs of the human body. Fortunately, fish brains are rich in vitamin C, and fish eggs are rich in vitamins A, B, D and a small amount of vitamin C. Fish contains vitamins A, D, E, etc. So humans can barely survive on the vitamins found in fish.
Of course! Growing is the fastest way to get enough vitamins. But in the vast sea, if you want to get seeds, you can only look at the next opportunity.
