For example, the superbug MRSA, which can cause hard - to - treat skin infections, appears to contaminate approximately 5 %
of U.S. retail meat; mysterious skin hives or allergic reactions may be a
sign of alpha - gal meat allergies; a lack
of safety thresholds in U.S. meat for drug residues, toxic metals, and pesticides can potentially result in jaundice and skin cancer; a case
of Vitamin A
poisoning from fish actually resulted in one man experiencing such
serious peeling
of his skin it took more than three months to heal; using tanning beds instead
of natural sunlight or supplements to get Vitamin D is linked to an increased risk
of the deadliest kind
of skin cancer; milk consumption has been associated with increased acne risk; and low antioxidants levels in the skin may correlate with the development
of wrinkles.
Serious cases
of poisoning are rare — ingestion can cause marked gastro - intestinal
signs — drooling, retching, vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal pain.
