Mad Cow and Prions

Does Cooking Food Kill the Prion That Causes Mad Cow Disease?

Common methods to eliminate disease-causing organisms in food, like heat, do not affect prions.

Grinding up the dead cows and other animals who have died from Mad Cow disease, and then incinerating them WILL NOT KILL the Prion!!

What diseases in humans are associated with Prions?

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) has been diagnosed in many countries in the world, including the United States.

Kuru, a neurologic disease, very much like CJD, has been present in New Guinea for many years. It appears to be associated with cannibalism.

Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker (GSS) disease is manifested as a very unsteady gait plus other signs of damage to the cerebellum - a specific area of the brain. The symptoms are very much like CJD. GSS is also fatal.

Fatal familial insomnia in which dementia follows difficulty sleeping.

Are sheep and cows the only animals affected?

No. This same "feed" made of ground-up dead, diseased animals has been fed, and is still being fed, to other animals being raised for human consumption, including chickens and pigs. Also deer, elk and mink have been found to have the disease.

How can Prions be destroyed?

They CAN'T!

Prions are NOT DESTROYED by fire, nor by freezing, nor by disinfectants, nor by operating room sterilization procedures, nor by incineration, nor by intense radiation.

In fact, scientists and government agencies HAVE NOT FOUND ANY WAY TO DESTROY THEM!!

Grinding up the dead cows and other animals who have died from Mad Cow disease, and then incinerating them WILL NOT KILL the Prion!!

The English government destroyed over 4.5 million cattle and incinerated them at a temperature of 1100 degrees centigrade. The resulting ash is still considered infectious and is stored in WW II blimp hangers.

Mad Cow disease can be passed from the mother to the fetus in the womb.

It can be passed from a bull to the cow through sperm.

It can be passed from one species to another quite freely by transfusion of contaminated blood or consumption of infected material.

BSE is extremely resistant to high temperatures; it is unaffected by radiation, laboratory solvents and bleaches.

In other words, it appears to be virtually indestructible.
