Good morning everyone, today let me share to you my own understanding about heart illness, specially Trichinosis one of the most painful diseases.
In some places, probably one out of every six people is affected by Trichinosis. In other places like the here in The Philippines this disease may even be more common. It is difficult to know why how widespread trichinosis is because symptoms are similar to other less severe ailments, and the tiny worms which cause the problem can usually be detected.
Trichinosis
Has a long been associated with eating undercooked pork and other swine products. Spread by butchered animal wastes, and rats virtually any animal eating such materials can carry the worms and be a source for human infestation. Trichinosis is not true infection since the worms do not multiply in the body. Besides pigs, common sources of trichinosis are bear, walrus, whale, seal, and dogs and cats when we used for food.
Although trichinosis is not usually fatal, a person eating heavily infested, undercooked meat can die. Aching muscles are usually the first indication of trouble. The pains generally start in the shoulders, then spread to the back and legs. A loss of appetite, nausea and vomitting low. Since the tiny worms can plug up vessels carrying lymph fluid in the body, a typical symptom is swelling of the tissues around the eyes. Almost certain diagnosis can be made when the three symptoms- muscle pain, loss of appetite or nausea and swelling around the eyes- occur together.
To avoid ingesting the worms, take special precautions when eating meat from wild animals, such as wild pig and bear, pork products especially sausage, should well-cooked.
Preventing trichinosis is a relatively simple procedure:
Thoroughly cook all animal flesh before eating, especially pork. People using microwave ovens should be careful that all meat reaches the minimum cooking temperature (140°). Trichinosis has resulted from "cold spots" in the meat when using microwaves.
Freeze pork and pork products for atleast three days at -16.6°F to kill the worms. Even lower temperature may be needed to kill some cold-resistant worms found in Arctic regions.
Cook all garbage fed to pigs to prevent worm spreading.
Remember, this is simple tips but can brings a lot of help to us to prevent for having this painful illness.
