Should you remove the tail when eating snails?

A
Have
According to Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Duy Thinh, former staff of the Institute of Biotechnology and Food, Hanoi University of Science and Technology, snails living in deep mud environments often contain many types of parasites that are harmful to the body. Each snail can contain 3,000-6,000 tubeworm parasites.
Snails that are not boiled thoroughly are infected with parasites, and people who eat them are at high risk of digestive diseases, stomachaches, nausea, swelling of limbs, cancer or other dangerous diseases caused by parasites. Folklore has it that "eel head, snail tail". When eating snails, you should remove the snail tail because it contains a lot of dirt, which is not good for the digestive system, especially for people with poor digestion, pregnant women, and young children.
Before eating, families should clean the snails by soaking them in clean water several times or soaking them in rice water and chili to remove all the mud before cooking.

According to Dr. Tran Huy Tho, Deputy Director of Dang Van Ngu Hospital, Central Institute of Malaria - Parasitology - Entomology, snails are a delicious dish that many people love, processed into many dishes such as boiled, steamed, grilled. However, if processed incorrectly, it can increase the risk of parasitic infection. The snail shell is very thick and hard, so it takes a long time for the snail meat inside to be fully cooked.
With grilled snails, the shell is burnt but the inside may not be cooked. Meanwhile, many people see the shell is burnt, think the snail is cooked and take it out to eat. This is the reason why many people get infected with worms from snails. In fact, snails sold in restaurants are usually only cooked to a medium level because overcooked snails will become tough and lose their crispness. This cooking method allows the source of parasitic disease to enter the body.
Many cases of small liver fluke infection shared that they never eat raw food such as fish salad or shrimp, but when further exploited, they said they often eat boiled snails at restaurants. People need to eat cooked food and drink boiled water, especially not eat raw snails that have not been cooked thoroughly. An important note is that snails, no matter where they live, when caught or bought, should still be soaked for 2-4 hours to remove bacteria residing in the shell. Then wash them many times with clean water before processing.

Although snails are a nutritious food, not everyone can eat them. If you do not want your illness to flare up and cause pain, people with gout or arthritis should limit their intake of crabs and snails. People who are allergic to crabs and snails should eat a very small amount to see how their body reacts. If you experience hives, itching, nausea, facial swelling, abdominal cramps, burning in the epigastric region, diarrhea, or difficulty breathing after a few minutes or hours of eating, you should go to the hospital immediately and absolutely do not eat crabs or snails. People with coughs or asthma will get worse if they eat seafood, especially crabs and snails, so they should avoid eating seafood to best protect their bodies.
