Dr. Frank Bures: Prevention is key to avoid food poisoning

According to the Centers for Disease Control, effective October 11, the recent outbreak of listeriosis caused by consumption of cantaloupes Colorado has infected 116 people from 25 countries and resulted in 23 deaths.

Listeriosis means condition (TSO) of Listeria, or better said, the infection of her.

Listeria (LIS-TER-EA) monocytogenes (mono-SY-tah-ZEE-jen) is one of the less common sources of food poisoning in humans but can cause infection patterns much more serious than other food poisoning bacteria, especially in older adults and immune compromised.

These models include meningitis three-quarter time, sometimes a non-specific digestive system in anger against fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, or simulate typhoid fever, and / or other rare problems. If contained by the immune system of the person, it erases its own within a week.

In newborns of infected mothers, may cause meningitis in a month of birth or in utero, to cause stillbirth or premature birth and death within minutes to several days. The case of Colorado has been associated with miscarriage.Maternal infection is often asymptomatic or cause mild disease, non-specific that erases quickly and without incident. The latter is probably the case of Listeria infection in most healthy adults, making accurate estimates of the incidence of infection impossible.

The bacteria are widespread in soil, decaying matter, silage and faeces. They were found on all continents except Antarctica, and can be grown 1 to 5 percent of human excreta in studies of the "normal" adults (bringing us back again to the insurmountable task of defining normal) .

The infection is common in wild and domestic mammals and birds, where it causes meningitis or other changes to the nervous system and / or hepatitis and blood poisoning. It causes disease in sheep circling (followed by circling the nozzles?).

The usual mode of human infection is through ingestion of contaminated food, as seen in the epidemics of cabbage, pasteurized milk, ice cream, soft cheese or cantaloupe.Unlike most other bacteria, they can grow at temperatures close to zero and could multiply in refrigerated foods such as cakes with whipped cream in glass cases with temperatures fluctuating or leftovers used repeatedly.

Lemon Detox is a sham

We have probably all seen the Lemon Detox commercials for one of the latest snake oils to hit the market. It has all the red flags of a fraudulent product, celebrity endorsements, miracle claims and personal testimonies. What I can't find is any scientific support for the claims that are made on the official Australian website. How ever I did find an interesting quote on the Spiritual Cleansing section of their site.

However that is as far as they go in terms of attributing the quote, no author, no year and no other reference. Let's assume the quote is correct after all it is scientifically sound. According to the First Law of Thermodynamics if you consume less calories than you burn you are guaranteed to lose weight.

Ok so they made at least one scientifically solid statement, but are there any others? Well, no but what I did find was a religious quote.

We service our vehicles every once in a while to free them from any blockages or complications and to get them back to their peak performance. If we leave our vehicles for too long without a service, they begin to slow down, losing their vitality and performance. Usually problem after problem will occur. With regular servicing, our vehicles become revitalised and more reliable, and able to function efficiently.

Here's the problem. A blockage is a serious medical condition if anything is blocking your circulatory or digestive system you need medical attention fast so unless you are in the ER right now you do not have any blockages to get rid of, or at least not one that your body can't clear by it's self. Another problem is the idea that "toxins" build up in the body. Yes, you can put poisons and toxins such as alcohol and tobacco into your body but your body disposes of nearly all toxins through natural processes you do not need to do anything to clear toxins out of your body except in extreme cases. Such as an overdose where the body cannot handle the excessive amount of toxin introduced to the system. Again this is a serious medical condition where treatment often involves replacing large amounts of blood. It is not a condition that can nor should be treated with the Lemon Detox Diet. This is simply Woo-Woo designed to part the ignorant masses from their hard earned cash.
