FDA Tips for Preventing Foodborne Illness Associated with Pet Food and Pet
2009-02-10 16:40:00
FDA is informing consumers of steps they can take to help prevent foodborne illness, including Salmonella-related illness, when handling pet foods and treats.  Pet food and treats, like many other types of foods, can be susceptible to harmful bacterial contamination.  During calendar year 2007, 15 pet products have been recalled due to Salmonella contamination; however, to date none of these products have been directly linked to human illness. Salmonella in pet foods and treats can cause serious infections in dogs and cats, and, if there is cross contamination, in people too, especially children, the aged, and people with compromised immune systems.  Salmonella in pet food and treats can potentially be transferred to people ingesting or handling contaminated pet food and treats. While the FDA has stepped up its efforts to minimize the incidence of foodborne illness associated with pet foods and treats, it?s important that consumers be mindful of the potential r...

Procedure Of Illness Insurance
2008-06-05 11:00:00
Surely planning for any eventuality regarding your health is a wise decision; critical illness insurance is something that we all need to make provision for. Providing financial peace of mind for your family by taking out protection for a mere few dollars each week, does not seem as important to most of us as having that luxury cup of coffee every day during lunch. Unfortunately, despite longer lives, we are not generally healthier and insurance providers now routinely offer cover in their policies as there is a reasonably high probability of contracting a serious condition. Studies have highlighted the problem with almost one man in five by the time they retire having a serious medical condition. This figure reduces, but only slightly, for women with around 15 percent having a severe health condition before retirement. Whilst lack of information may be to blame for the low numbers of people that arrange critical illness insurance protection it is more than likely our belief that it...
