Science Shocker: Airborne Prions · February 01, 2011
“Prions, the agents that cause bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE or mad cow disease) and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease can spread through the air and induce infection…”
The University of Zurich published its surprising findings, and recommended that slaughterhouses and feed plants adjust their procedures to account for potential airborne prions. Until now it was thought that prions were not transmitted by air.
Prions can be transmitted by surgical instruments and blood transfusions, but the new research is surprising because it reveals that prions can also spread through the air.
Aerosol tests on mice revealed that all mice contracted prion-based disease after breathing prion-tainted aerosols for one minute whether they had strong or weak immune systems.
A prion is a deformed protein that acts as a template, deforming other proteins and “eventually causing a chain reaction that destroys cells.” The disease is deadly.
The best thing is to avoid eating or using animal products. As we near the end of time, disease in animals will increase. Those living at the end of time should practice a simple healthy diet of fruits, grains, nuts and vegetables.
“Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the diet chosen for us by our Creator. These foods, prepared in as simple and natural a manner as possible, are the most healthful and nourishing. They impart a strength, a power of endurance, and a vigor of intellect, that are not afforded by a more complex and stimulating diet.” Counsels on Diets and Foods p. 81
“Flesh was never the best food; but its use is now doubly objectionable, since disease in animals is so rapidly increasing.” Ibid p. 384
