A 13-year-old social media influencer in Egypt has died.
The teenager was hospitalized with severe stomach pain and vomiting complaints shortly after eating three packets of uncooked noodles. Despite medical interventions, it was not possible to save his life.
During the autopsy, it was determined that the young person had an intestinal obstruction due to eating a large amount of raw noodles. Specialists noted that uncooked noodles can swell in the stomach and intestines and cause serious health complications.
The products involved in the incident were tested in a laboratory. The investigation found no toxic or hazardous substances in the noodles.
Authorities stated that the tragedy was related not to the quality of the food but to the method of consumption and excessive quantity eaten.
Doctors and food safety experts have stated that processed products like instant noodles should only be consumed after being cooked. They emphasized that dangerous trends rapidly spreading on social media pose a life-threatening risk especially for children and teenagers.//Milli.Az
