I just wanna share a useful information that i gained a few years back from my biology's lecturer, mr.joned..sorry, i forgot his real name..huh...and the story goes like this..
are you ready?? =P
This is a true case of a japanese man from Gifu who complains incessantly about a persistent headache. Mr.Shota Fujiwara loves his sashimi and sushi very much to the extent of trying to get them as 'alive and fresh' as can be for his insatiable appetite. He develops a severe headache for the past three years and has put cut off as migraine and stress from work. It was only when he started losing his psychomotor skills that he seeks medical help. A brain scan and x-ray reveals little however.
But upon closer inspection by a specialist on his scalp, the doctor noticed small movements beneath his skin. The, the doctor did a local anesthetic to his scalp and discovered the cause when tiny worms crawled out. A major surgery was thus immediately called for and the extent of infestation was horrific. (As shown in the pictures provided)
Remember, tapeworms and roundworms and their eggs which abound in all fresh fishes and salt fishes can only be killed by thorough cooking (75 deg C and above) or freezing the fish in a temperature between 0 deg C-4 deg C. The eggs of these parasites can only be killed if it is cooked or frozen under the appropriate temperatures as mentioned above for a week or more. Think twice about that raw dish next time..or you might get a headache. Hehehe..
So...BEWARE!!
