To prevent blindness..Avoid this food

A recent study revealed that eating raw or undercooked meat for some may pose a risk factor to their health and may increase the risk of blindness.

The study, led by researchers from Flinders University in Australia, stated that eating raw or undercooked meat can cause a so-called "toxoplasmosis", which in turn may cause scarring or detachment of the retina.

Giles Edmonds, Director of Clinical Services at Specsavers, said: “Retinal scarring is often caused by inflammation, and scarring can sometimes lead to retinal detachment, and scars in the retina are not easy to remove which means that any vision loss may not One recovers from it."

The researchers discovered that toxoplasmosis can cause retinal scarring through ocular toxoplasmosis, and Edmonds said that "this is related to the Toxoplasma parasite, which is transmitted to livestock before they are eaten by meat eaters."

He continued, "If the meat is not cooked properly, this means that these parasites do not die and are still present in the food we eat."
