Bahaya Mie Instant: Usus Dipotong dan Kanker
Banyak anak kecil yang suka mie instan. Kadang selain tiap hari, bisa jadi mereka makan mie instan 2 kali atau bahkan selalu makan mie instan. Ini karena rasa mie instan yang gurih sekali karena memakai berbagai bumbu yang tak jarang berbahaya bagi kesehatan seperti MSG, perasa buatan sehingga rasanya jadi seperti rasa ayam, sapi, bakso, dsb, pengawet buatan, dan sebagainya.
Di tabloid Nova dikisahkan seorang anak yang bernama Hilal ususnya harus dipotong karena kebanyakan makan mie instan.
Sebaiknya jangan biarkan anak makan mie instan. Jika pun harus, masaklah air yang banyak. Sisihkan sebagian air untuk kuah dan masukan ke piring. Setelah itu baru masukan mie. Buang air rebusan mie (jangan dimakan). Bumbu cukup separuh dan perbanyak airnya hingga penuh agar bumbunya jadi hambar.
Memang jadinya kurang begitu enak. Tapi itu lebih baik ketimbang usus harus dipotong seperti kasus anak di bawah ini.
Di Kompas.com diberitakan Petugas Departemen Kesehatan dan Makanan Taiwan melakukan razia mendadak ke beberapa toko dan menyita mi instan Indomie produksi Indonesia. Mereka menyatakan, mi instan buatan Indofood tersebut mengandung dua bahan yang tidak diperkenankan untuk digunakan dalam makanan dan dilarang diperjualbelikan.
Usus Dipotong akibat Kebanyakan Mi Instan

MAKSUD hati membantu suami menambah penghasilan, apa daya anak jadi korban. Akibat kerap meninggalkan buah hatinya, Hilal Aljajira (6), Erna Sutika (32) kini harus menelan pil pahit. Usus Hilal bocor dan membusuk hingga harus dipotong. Rupanya tiap hari Hilal hanya menyantap mi instan karena di rumah tak ada orang yang memasakkan makanan untuknya. Berikut cerita Erna.
Saat usia Hilal menginjak 2 tahun, aku memutuskan bekerja, membantu keuangan keluarga mengingat
penghasilan suamiku, Saripudin (39), kurang mencukupi kebutuhan keluarga.
Aku bekerja di perusahaan pembuat bulu mata palsu, tak jauh dari rumah kami di Garut. Setiap berangkat kerja, Hilal kutitipkan kepada ibuku. Di situ, ibuku kerap memberinya mi instan. Bukan salah ibuku, sih, karena sebelumnya, aku juga suka memberinya makanan itu jika sedang tidak masak.
Ternyata, Hilal jadi “tergila-gila” makanan itu. Ia akan mengamuk dan mogok makan jika tak diberi mi instan. Ya, daripada cucunya kelaparan, ibuku akhirnya hanya mengalah dan menuruti kemauan Hilal. Lagi pula, kalau tidak diberi, Hilal pasti akan membeli sendiri mi instan di warung dekat rumah dengan uang jajan yang kuberikan. Praktis, sehari dua kali ia makan mi instan.
Dua kali dipotong
Kamis, 20 November 2008, Hilal mengeluh sakit perut. Kupikir sakit biasa. Anehnya, setelah tiga hari, sakitnya tak kunjung hilang dan ditambah ia tidak bisa buang air besar. Gara-gara itulah perutnya membesar.
Khawatir, kubawa Hilal ke mantri dekat rumah. Karena tetap tidak ada perubahan, kami kemudian membawanya ke RSU Dr Slamet, Garut. Ternyata hasil pemeriksaan dokter lebih menyeramkan dari yang kuduga. Kupikir, cukup dengan obat pencahar perut, sakit Hilal bisa segera sembuh. Rupanya tak segampang itu.
Hasil tes darah dan rontgen memperlihatkan, Hilal harus segera dioperasi karena beberapa bagian di ususnya bocor dan membusuk. Ketika kutanyakan apa penyebabnya, dokter menjawab, akibat dari kandungan makanan yang Hilal konsumsi selama ini tidak sehat dan membuat ususnya rusak. Saat itulah kutahu Hilal terlalu sering menyantap mi instan. Astagfirullah….
Atas rujukan dokter, kami kemudian membawa Hilal ke RS Hasan Sadikin, Bandung, dengan alasan peralatan medis di RS itu lebih lengkap. Sejak awal, tim dokter sudah pesimistis dengan kondisi Hilal yang begitu memprihatinkan dengan berat badan yang tidak sampai 11 kg. Dokter juga bilang, dari puluhan kasus serupa, hanya tiga orang yang bertahan hidup. Aku hanya bisa berserah pada Allah SWT.
Baru pada 25 November 2008 operasi dilakukan di RS Immanuel, Bandung. Saat itu aku sedang hamil tiga bulan. Dokter mengamputasi usus Hilal sekitar 10 cm. Untuk menyatukan bagian usus yang terputus itu, dokter menyambungnya dengan usus sintetis. Selain itu, dokter juga membuat lubang anus sementara (kolostomi) di dinding perut sebelah kanan.

Stay away from instant noodles to keep healthy
The Consumers Association of Penang (CAP) calls on consumers to avoid eating instant noodles as it is harmful to health. Studies have shown that the consumption high sodium content in instant noodles is linked to a variety of diseases such as hypertension, heart disease, stroke and kidney damage.
In 2004 Malaysians consumed 870 million packets of instant noodles but by 2008 it had increased to more than 1210 million packets. This is an increase of nearly 40 percent during the period of 4 years.
Instant noodle is a highly processed food that lacks nutritive value. It is a junk food. Every single serving of instant noodle is high in carbohydrates, sodium and other food additives, but low on essential elements such as fibre, vitamins and minerals.
According to the Codex Standards (FAO standards) for instant noodles, acid regulators, flavour enhancers, thickeners, humectants, colours, stabilizers, anti-oxidants, emulsifiers, flour treatment agents, preservatives and anti-caking agents – are allowed to use in the making of instant noodles.
24 of the 136 listed additives in the Codex Standards are sodium salts. And the use of sodium additives is the main reason why instant noodles are high in sodium. High sodium foods can cause hypertension, heart disease, stroke, kidney damage and other health problems.
Tests conducted by CAP on 10 samples of instant noodles found three samples to contain sodium above 1,000 mg. The average amount of sodium found in the samples was 830 mg. According to the current US Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of sodium for adults and children over 4 years old is 2400 mg/day. The consumption of instant noodles can easily cause excessive sodium intake as sodium is commonly used in our other daily foods especially from processed and hawker’s food.
Another health concern is the reported leaching of dioxin and other hormone-like substances from the plastic container of the cup noodle. As hot water is added harmful substances could seep into the soup.
One of the major concerns of instant noodle is that it can produce oxidised fat and oil if it is not managed properly during the manufacturing process. This is of concern if the cooking oil is not maintained at the proper temperature or the oil is not changed as often as necessary.
Instant noodles are coated with wax to prevent the noodles from sticking together. This can be seen when hot water is added to the noodles. After some time the wax can be seen floating in the water.
The Codex Standards also allow the use of 10,000 mg/kg of the chemical propylene glycol – an anti-freeze ingredient as humectants (helps to retain moisture to prevent noodles from drying) in instant noodles. Propylene glycol is readily absorbed and it accumulates in the heart, liver and kidneys causing abnormalities and damage. The chemical is also capable of weakening the immune system.
Instant noodles and the flavouring soup base also contain high amounts of monosodium glutamate (MSG). It is a flavour enhancer used by instant noodle makers to make their shrimp flavours ”shrimpier” and beef flavours “beefier”. MSG can trigger an allergic reaction in 1 to 2 % of the population. Individuals who are allergic to MSG can get burning sensations chest and facial flushing or pain and headaches from it.
High sodium consumption is linked to stroke or kidney damage. In Malaysia, there are an estimated 13,000 kidney patients undergoing dialysis. Every year 2,500 people join the ranks of end-stage renal failure patients. Six new cases of stroke occur every hour in Malaysia.
Some of the chemicals found in instant noodles are also capable of causing cancer, for example, dioxin and plasticisers leached from the containers in the presence of hot water. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) at least 30 percent of all cancers could be prevented through simple measures such as adopting a healthy diet. Instant noodles are definitely an unhealthy diet which consumers should avoid.
In view of its unhealthy nature, the Consumers Association of Penang calls on the Ministry of Health to launch a campaign to highlight the dangers of instant noodles which is a popular food among Malaysians.
For the sake of their health consumers should opt for more wholesome food.

Health concerns
Instant noodles are often criticized as being unhealthy or junk food. A single serving of instant noodles is high in carbohydrates but low in fiber, vitamins and minerals. Noodles are typically fried as part of the manufacturing process, resulting in high levels of saturated fat and/or trans fat. Additionally, if served in an instant broth, instant noodles typically contain high amounts of sodium. The current U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance of sodium for adults and children over 4 years old is 2,400 mg/day. Some brands may have over 3,000 mg of sodium per package in extreme cases. Instant noodles and the flavoring soup base also contain high amounts of monosodium glutamate.
