Can paper be digested?

Many children often swallow tissue paper into their stomachs because tissue paper cannot be digested by the human body and eating tissue paper will affect gastrointestinal digestion, so the tissue paper should be cleaned out. At this time, you can give the baby some bowel-moisturizing foods such as honey and oils, which can promote the baby's bowel movements, thereby expelling the tissue paper from the body and avoiding the situation where the tissue paper cannot be digested.

The components of paper are not easy to digest, and the papermaking process requires chemical treatment. Paper contains chemical elements that are harmful to the human body. Eating a small amount will make the body uncomfortable, and eating too much may affect life, so it should not be eaten.

2. Paper is mainly composed of plant fiber, filler, glue, pigment, etc.

1) Commonly used plant fibers for papermaking include: straw, wheat straw, reed, bamboo, wood, hemp, cotton, etc. Waste cotton, waste cloth, waste hemp, waste paper, etc. are also the main raw materials for papermaking.

2) Commonly used fillers include kaolin, talcum powder, gypsum powder, carbonate and barium sulfate. Talc is used for general printing paper, and kaolin and barium sulfate are used for high-grade printing paper.

3) Commonly used sizing materials include rosin, aluminum sulfate, alum, starch, water glass, casein acid, etc.

4) The commonly used colorants for making white paper are royal blue, ultramarine, etc., and a certain amount of fluorescent brighteners must be added to make high-grade paper. When making colored paper, colorants are also needed, mostly inorganic pigments or organic dyes.

Wafer paper is edible paper, also called rice paper, which is made of glutinous rice.

With edible paper, our lives become more convenient, pollution problems are alleviated, thus protecting our home and the earth on which we live.

Made from glutinous rice flour, edible. The main reason for using it to wrap foods such as candies is that it is smoother and more hygienic, and it has a slight moisture-absorbing effect. Prevent the toffee from absorbing moisture, reducing its hardness, sticking to the outer packaging, deforming, or even deteriorating. That is edible paper. The film that wraps the candy is usually on toffee candies, and then wrapped in candy paper. That film is edible.
