What is tetanus?

Tetanus is a serious nervous system disease caused by toxigenic bacteria. Tetanus is an infection caused by bacteria called Clostridium tetani.

The bacteria typically exist in soil, dust, and animal waste, and they enter the body through skin breaks, most frequently cuts or puncture wounds brought on by contaminated things. It frequently causes the neck and jaw muscles to lock, which makes it difficult to open the mouth or swallow.

Tetanus is different from other diseases that can be prevented by vaccination in that it cannot be transmitted from person to person.

Tetanus needs a medical emergency. Aggressive wound care and
antibiotics will be required.

Severe complications from tetanus can be life-threatening. This bacterium produces toxins that affect the brain and nervous system, causing muscle stiffness. The common way for tetanus to
enter the body through pores can be through broken skin, usually an injury, into a person's body.

Tetanus bacteria are more likely to infect certain breaks in the skin such as wounds contaminated with dirt, f***s or saliva, puncture wounds, burns, crush injuries and injuries with dead tissue.

After exposure to tetanus, it can take 3 to 21 days for symptoms to appear. In infants, it may take 3 days to 2 weeks for symptoms to appear.

Salmonella in cat?

Have you ever thought that cats also can get salmonellosis?

From the medical case, around 3% of human Salmonella infections are caused by infected pets.

It is because cats eat the raw food and 80% of raw food usually may contain Salmonella. Over 80% of raw chicken contains Salmonella, which is a common source of infection for cats. Cats usually ingest the bacteria in food or from infected water. Salmonellosis is actually uncommon for cats but it also can act as a carrier of the bacteria. This means that even if a cat does not really exhibit salmonellosis symptoms, they can still retain Salmonella in their stool and saliva, which they can potentially distribute to the surroundings of the home as well as to people and other pets living there.

If pets become infected, it is important to take precautions to reduce the risk to human health. For this reason, pets can be hospitalized in isolation facilities until the diarrhea improves. If your
dog or cat is found to have salmonella, all bedding, toys, bowls and utensils should be disinfected. But prevention of salmonellosis in cats by feed supplies free of salmonellae depending on the integrity of the source.

Cats infected with Salmonella usually have diarrhea
ontaining blood and mucus. Affected cats appear more tired than usual and may be accompanied by fever and vomiting.

CHOLESTEROL

So, what is cholesterol? What does it do?

Cholesterol is a waxy substance. It’s not inherently “bad.” Your body needs it to build cells and make vitamins and other hormones. But too much cholesterol can pose a problem.

Cholesterol comes from two sources.
-Your liver makes all the cholesterol you need.
-The remainder of the cholesterol in your body comes from foods from animals. For example: meat, poultry and dairy products all contain dietary cholesterol.

Why cholesterol matters?

Cholesterol circulates in the blood. As the amount of cholesterol in your blood increases, so does the risk to your health. High cholesterol contributes to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as heart disease and stroke. That’s why it’s important to have your cholesterol tested, so you can know your levels.

The two types of cholesterol are:
1. LDL cholesterol, which is bad
2. HDL cholesterol which is good.

Too much of the bad kind, or not enough of the good kind, increases the risk cholesterol will slowly build up in the inner walls of the arteries that feed the heart and brain. Cholesterol can join with other substances to form a thick, hard deposit on the inside of the arteries. This can narrow the arteries and make them less flexible – a condition known as atherosclerosis.

If a blood clot forms and blocks one of these narrowed arteries, a heart attack or stroke can result.

When it comes to cholesterol, remember: check, change and control.
