The CDC saw none of these pathogens in meat until the late 1970s when "animal > factories" became the dominant means of meat production. Even our fruits > and vegetables get contaminated by these pathogens through exposure to tainted > fertilizers and sewage sludge. >
numerous reputable studies have shown that consuming irradiated meat can cause DNA damage
The use of antibiotics in farm animal production may also be accelerating the alarming growth of antibiotic resistance exhibited by dangerous pathogens.
