Unpasteurized dairy products:
Unpasteurized dairy products such as milk, cheese, and yogurt can contain dangerous parasites like Cryptosporidium and Giardia . These parasites are resistant to common cleaning and disinfection methods, making raw milk products a significant health risk. Pasteurization kills these harmful microorganisms, making the products safer to consume.
Contaminated water:
Drinking or using contaminated water to wash food can introduce parasites into the human body. Water sources can be contaminated with Giardia , Entamoeba histolytica , and other harmful microorganisms. It is therefore essential to always drink clean, filtered, or boiled water, especially when traveling in areas with inadequate sanitation.
Instructions for safe consumption:
Proper preparation of meat:
-
Make sure the pork is cooked thoroughly to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
-
Beef should reach a core temperature of 160°F (71°C) to kill any parasites that may be present.
-
Fish should be cooked to a core temperature of 63 °C (145 °F), or until the flesh is opaque and can be easily broken apart with a fork.
Cook shellfish thoroughly:
-
Shellfish should be cooked at a high temperature to kill parasites. Methods such as steaming, boiling, or grilling ensure thorough cooking. Shellfish that do not open during cooking should always be discarded.
Washing fruits and vegetables:
-
Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly under running water before eating, cutting, or cooking. Use a vegetable brush for produce with thicker skins, such as potatoes or cucumbers. Peel the outer layers whenever possible to further reduce the risk of contamination.
