A neuroscientist recently warned in a viral TikTok video about the potential parasitic risks in pork, farm-raised salmon, and sushi, particularly the risk of parasites reaching the brain. He emphasized the importance of proper food sourcing and cooking to reduce these risks.

1. **Pork**: Love warns that undercooked pork can harbor parasites like *Trichinella*, advising thorough cooking and careful sourcing.
2. **Farm-raised Salmon**: Due to confined spaces, farmed salmon can contain parasites. Wild-caught salmon is a safer alternative, and cooking thoroughly reduces risks.
3. **Sushi**: Since sushi often involves raw fish, it may contain parasites that cooking would eliminate. Opting for cooked fish reduces exposure.

Though Love’s warning has sparked concern, experts emphasize that proper food preparation can significantly reduce parasitic risks.
