Thats been proven false. It helps some, but doesn't get it all. Following from: http://www.secondchanceranch.org/training/raw_meat/myths.html
False: Freezing kills all parasites and bacteria. Truth: Freezing kills some but not all parasites and does not kill most bacteria. The most dangerous parasite in raw meat is toxoplasmosis. It can kill your dog. I know of two recent cases where dogs died from this parasite after eating raw meat. Dr. Michael Harrington, a Veterinary Neurologist reported that he treated a dog with thousands of parasites from a raw meat diet, which turned to worms in his brain. An MRI showed the dog's brain looked like Swiss cheese. The parasites are usually much more dangerous than the bacteria. Cats and people are also susceptible to this parasite. Pregnant women are told not to change kitty litter when pregnant because toxoplasmosis can effect the baby. Cats who carry toxoplasmosis from eating birds and rodents, while pregnant, often birth deformed kittens. --- In [email protected], Jen-CA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If frozen long enough it is not a problem either. > " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends!
