Fast food burgers contain only 7% meat; the 8 other ‘ingredients’ will disgust you: Americans consume somewhere in the ballpark of 5 billion hamburgers a year. A study published in the Annals of Diagnostic Pathology helped to discover that actual meat content in the burgers is only 2-14% of what you think it is! The other tissues were connective tissue, blood vessels, peripheral nerve, adipose tissue, plant material, cartilage, bone, and intracellular parasites known as Sarcocystis. http://www.realfarmacy.com/fast-food-burgers-only-7-meat/#uAHPFymstubXWbhO.99

Be careful next time you change the kitty litter: Cat feces can carry a nefarious parasite that may be much more widespread than thought, researchers say. Cats in the United States release about 2.6 billion pounds (1.2 million metric tons) of feces into the environment every year. Cat dung carries the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, a single-celled organism that creates infectious agents called oocysts. These oocysts can infect pregnant women, causing congenital problems in the baby such as deafness, seizures, eye damage and mental retardation. The parasite also infects people with compromised immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS. http://www.foxnews.com/health/2013/07/09/cat-poop-parasite-is-dangerously-widespread/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+foxnews%2Fhealth+%28Internal+-+Health+-+Text%29#ixzz2YZlDpAAC
