What dangers are lurking in your kitchen? Or in the food you are eating while you are traveling on vacation?

In the Summer of 2013, a virulent foodborne illness began spreading throughout the United States, leading to hundreds of cases, with some so severe that they required hospitalization.

As of June 2020, cyclospora is back in the headlines, with hundreds of new cases being reported from a range of states in relation to bagged salads sold at various supermarkets.

With all going on in the world with COVID-19, the LAST thing anyone wants is to get sickened with salad by a pesky little parasite.

Cyclospora infection, or cyclosporiasis, can pose a threat to your health and is even more risky for children, the elderly, pregnant women, and those with compromised immune systems. Keep your family safe by learning what you need to know about Cyclospora, including:

+ What it is
+ Where it comes from
+ What the symptoms are of cyclosporiasis
+ How to treat a Cyclospora infection effectively
+ How to prevent Cyclospora infections

and much more.

Use the information you learn to keep your family safe from a potentially dangerous stomach bug making the rounds in the USA and around the world. Learn how to stay safe at home in your own kitchen, and overseas if you travel, to avoid contracting Cyclospora.

An ounce of prevention is far better than a pound of cure when it comes to any illness, but particularly foodborne ones. They can ruin your quality of life, and can even be life-threatening to the young, older persons, and those with a compromised immune system. Use all you learn in this guide to help keep you and your family safe.
