Chickens may indeed carry parasites on their bodies. These parasites may enter the body of field chickens through their food chain and parasitize and reproduce within their bodies. There are various types of parasites that may exist in the body of field chickens, including but not limited to Manchurian cysticercosis, double slot cysticercosis, etc.
These parasites may parasitize the muscles, organs, subcutaneous tissue, or eyes of field chickens. If the field chicken is not fully cooked and thoroughly consumed, the larvae or eggs of the parasite may not be completely killed by high temperatures, thus continuing to parasitize and reproduce in the human body, leading to parasitic diseases.
The symptoms of parasitic diseases vary depending on the type and location of the parasite. For example, the parasitic presence of Trichoderma mansoni in the eyes may lead to blindness, while parasitic presence in the brain may cause serious consequences such as paralysis. However, the double slot larvae parasitize in the subcutaneous tissue of the human body, which may cause symptoms such as local edema and abscess. If the double slot larvae invade the human eye, they can cause various inflammations, leading to corneal ulcers, vision loss, and even blindness in severe cases.
When consuming field chickens, make sure to cook them thoroughly to kill the larvae or eggs of parasites. Meanwhile, it is recommended to choose field chickens from reliable channels that have undergone inspection and quarantine to reduce the risk of parasitic infections.
Returning field chickens hibernate in the soil for more than half a year. After waking up, their bodies may carry various viruses and bacteria, which may also pose a threat to human health. When handling ingredients such as field chickens, pay attention to personal hygiene and food cleanliness to avoid cross contamination.
Field chickens may carry parasites, so it is important to cook them thoroughly and choose a reliable source when consuming them. For health reasons, it is recommended to avoid consuming wild animals such as pheasants that may carry parasites as much as possible.
