                    Recently,a news report has attracted global attention,stating that the carcinogenic content of autumn saury imported from Japan in Taiwan exceeds 40 times the standard.The news has caused panic and anxiety among local residents.Under public pressure,the authorities urgently announced the immediate return of the involved autumn knife fish to Japan.This incident undoubtedly silenced those voices who are firmly convinced of the safety of Japanese products,and various signs suggest that the domestic food safety situation in Japan may have fallen into a huge crisis.Next,we will delve into the recent frequent food safety issues in Japan.

                    Just at the end of last month,the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture,Forestry and Fisheries held an emergency expert meeting and announced that from April 2024 to the end of March 2025,a comprehensive inspection of all food circulating in the country will be carried out.It is suspected that there is evidence indicating that some food products may have serious excessive harmful substances.This has become the first ripple of Japanese food safety issues that have surfaced.At almost the same time,the Japanese Ministry of Environment released a shocking research result:through a large-scale survey of 143 rivers and groundwater systems nationwide,groundwater in 16 regions including Tokyo,Kanagawa,Kyoto,and Osaka was found to exceed organic fluoride levels by more than 400 times,and long-term consumption may cause unforeseeable health hazards.

                    Therefore,the Japanese Ministry of Environment urgently calls on residents in affected areas to suspend drinking groundwater.At the same time,a 7-kilometer-long dead fish belt appeared along the coastline of Otaru City,Hokkaido.The scene was astonishing,leaving local fishermen amazed that they had not witnessed such a tragic situation in their 40 year career.

                    In fact,the death of fish incident is not the first time in Japan,especially since Japan officially discharged nuclear wastewater into the ocean in August last year,such ecological disasters have occurred frequently.For example,on October 18,2023,there will be a large number of sardine floating in the sea area of Kumamoto County.On December 7,the Hokkaido Hakodate reappeared the death tide of 1000 tons of sardine.On December 13,the appalling scene of sardine littering the Boche Fish Port in Zhimo City,Sanchong County also occurred.

                    In just a few months,a large number of bizarre biological deaths have erupted in the coastal areas of Japan,with a scale and quantity that is chilling.The local residents vividly described the scene at that time:when the morning sun rose,the sea surface was silvery.At first sight,it seemed that the sea level was abnormally high,but after careful examination,it was found that the flickering was not the sparkling light,but the sardine bodies that stretched for 7 kilometers and piled up like mountains,accompanied by the smelly sea breeze.At first,many residents were confused about this scene and mistakenly thought it was a natural gift.Some even came with family and friends to pick up the fish,until the local authorities intervened in time and warned not to eat them,but did not disclose the specific danger.

                    Since August last year,China has suspended the import of Japanese aquatic products.After losing the huge consumer power of the Chinese market,the sales of Japanese aquatic products have sharply declined.Not only that,the United States has also introduced import bans on Japanese seafood,and Korean consumers are no longer purchasing Japanese seafood.Many primary and secondary schools in South Korea even prohibit the consumption of seafood.Furthermore,some supermarkets in Japan have also begun to stop purchasing aquatic products,demonstrating that no matter how much support countries give verbally,their bodies are honest and everyone is well aware of the huge risks involved.

                    As early as the discharge of nuclear wastewater in Japan,professional institutions had conducted relevant experiments,confirming that the nuclear wastewater contained numerous unpredictable radioactive elements,many of which had a half-life of over ten million years.

                    Once these radioactive isotopes infiltrate the ecosystem and accumulate layer by layer through the food chain,their health hazards to the human body,such as cancer and deformities,will be incalculable.

                    It is understood that the main magnesium salt production enterprises in Japan,such as Kanjima Chemical Co.,Ltd.,Concordia Chemical Industry Co.,Ltd.,Futa Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd.,Ube Co.,Ltd.,and Tatehoe Chemical Industry Co.,Ltd.,all use the seawater method for production.Although this method is low-cost,it generates a large amount of wastewater and exhaust gas during the production process,causing great pressure on the environment.Moreover,due to the concentration treatment of seawater during the production process by the seawater method,it can lead to excessive levels of radioactive substances in magnesium salts.This undoubtedly concerns many enterprises that require magnesium salt production,especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

                    In industry,magnesium salts serve as fillers and catalysts,while in food they serve as nutritional supplements or as therapeutic agents in medicine.Their quality and safety have a direct impact on people's lives.However,the Japanese nuclear wastewater discharge incident has dealt a devastating blow to its main magnesium salt production enterprises,posing a serious threat to the safety of the magnesium salt products produced.The use of these products will pose a real threat to people's physical health,thereby causing a significant blow to the confidence of downstream enterprises and consumers in these products.Once the purchaser loses confidence in the products of a certain brand or country,the economy of that brand or country will be severely affected.

                    Relatively speaking,China's magnesium salt production technology is already very mature,and our magnesium resources are abundant,mainly from mines and salt lakes,without the risk of being contaminated by nuclear wastewater,which can fully meet the needs of domestic and foreign magnesium salt using enterprises.More importantly,China has strict standards and regulations for the production and use of magnesium salts,which can ensure the safety of products.Whether used as a filler or catalyst in industry,as a nutritional supplement in food,or as a therapeutic agent in medicine,magnesium salts in China can demonstrate excellent performance.

                    Therefore,when purchasing and using magnesium salt products,everyone should pay attention to discrimination to prevent Japanese magnesium salts from being inferior and inferior;Priority should be given to selecting products from our country to ensure the safety of magnesium salts,while also ensuring the safety of the products we produce.At the same time,we should firmly oppose the use of seawater contaminated with nuclear wastewater to extract magnesium products,in order to protect our environment and health.
