All forbidden is desirable. This is a completely correct statement we can not dispute! It is a curious thing, or it burns a dose that is beyond the normal limits of pleasure; but the forbidden is always able to give you what you can not afford ... not without consequences, of course. Thus we find a long list of prohibitions by law, religion or custom; in our article we will deal with one of these prohibitions, but by virtue of medicine.
Here we have a tree named Scientific "Dipterix odorata" growing in Central America and North South America and the family of Peas. Is a tree unknown to non-specialists, but its fruit is the most famous and important in the world of the manufacture of food and perfume ... Tonk beans
As you can see in the previous picture, these are black rectangular, skin-roughened and with a resinous heart but what you do not know is that it has a flavor and aroma that combines vanilla, cherries, almonds, warm cinnamon, cloves and perhaps a small tart of rainbow as well! Not only that, but its taste is strong that its fridge (the way it is usually consumed) is extracted from a single grain of 80 grams!
This is a nutritional component that many experts claim to be the most delicious in the world, even though you do not know it; they taste like opium inhalation, however it is banned in a number of countries around the world, especially in accordance with the Food and Drug Administration Ordinance of 1954; Is the chemical component contained in the Tonka bean Coumarin Coumarin.
Coumarin is a vegetarian chemical compound with a vanilla-like aroma. It is found in varying degrees in many plants, including legumes, lavender, sesame, strawberry, apricot, and cinnamon. About 90% of the modern perfume contains coumarin, and you can easily detect it by reviewing the ingredients list on the perfume package; it is widely used in the food industry, confectionery, spices, pipe tobacco and cigarettes. The smell of coumarin is now associated with the aroma of tobacco. For the same.
Tuna contains 90% of the coumarin, and in the old Tonka bean, you will notice small white crystals on it ... This coumarin is in its raw form and practically pure! So it was obvious that the use of coumarin or tuna extract by the US Food and Drug Administration would be banned in the food industry, although cumin in cinnamon would be found to be 1 percent. But did not this ban despite the charming and amazing qualities of tuna and kumarine pills ?!
Death is tasty!
Although the tuna is legally banned in the United States, you will still be able to get it on the menus of the best restaurants and stay there. In fact, the United States is the largest importer of tuna in the world! It is clear here that the tuna taste and flavor of the magnificence to risk the biggest chefs and most famous smuggled to the country and used in their dishes.
The charge for Tonka pills is that they, or coumarin in fact, are very toxic, and may cause death if consumed in large quantities. But as long as you eat it moderately and at intervals, you will notice only its taste is very wonderful and tasty. In fact, taking any food whatever is safe in too large quantities may lead to a health damage between the medium to the serious, so what with toxic substance such as coumarin ?!
According to recent studies, relatively small doses of coumarin have been shown to damage the liver in cats and dogs within a few weeks, but as we have noted, these small amounts of coumarin are already present in other foods such as cinnamon that you keep in your kitchen. Coumarin is also found in tobacco, electronic cigarettes, cosmetics, deodorants, liquid soap and other antiseptics as well as perfumes. However, there are no reported deaths from coumarin consumption, prompting many to demand a lifting of the ban on coumarin and volcano.
However, it should not be said that coumarin is a non-hazardous substance; only to highlight its dangers and the extent of its toxicity is what appears to be very deceptive. According to a report by Atlantic News, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned Foul Tonka and Kumarin after making a mistake in the name of the coumarin for another blood clotting agent called Coumadin. This may seem difficult to certify with a giant entity such as the FDA, but nothing is entirely ruled out, especially since the ban is dated back to the 1950s.

If we go to the European Food Safety Authority, we have another opinion regarding cocaine and tuna. According to a report, the consumption of the coumarin is very safe as long as it is "Ultra Conservative", which means that consuming as much as 0.1 mg per kilogram of the weight of the person taking it will not cause any health problems, and the body will be able to deal with the toxic chemical component even if I took that conservative dose daily for life.
Do you remember the number of dessert dishes that one Tonka can do? 80 according to what you remember! With so much of the tuna, it is unlikely that one of them will experience a life-threatening overdose of coumarin. Finally you may want to know that tuna beans are not banned in some countries like Canada, for example; if you are there do not forget to try it!
