Up to 100m Americans infected with parasite that 'silently' eats away at the brain... the subtle signs YOU have it
Alarming findings show that potentially more than 100 million Americans have been infected with a parasite that silently eats away at the brain.
A new study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, estimates that 10 to 30 percent of people in the US are infected with Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), often without knowing it.
Previous studies have linked it to mind-altering behavior, such as risk-taking, depression and even schizophrenia.
The parasite, which can lie dormant in the brain for decades, is typically contracted through undercooked meat or exposure to cat feces.
