He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - How Anisakis in raw fish is controlled by specific freezing temperatures (-4°F for 7 days) as required by the FDA Food Code, not just by visual inspection. - That Cryptosporidium is often found in contaminated water and is highly resistant to chlorine, making the use of an approved water source a critical control point. - Why Cyclospora is frequently linked to imported produce and why purchasing from approved, reputable suppliers is the most effective preventative measure. - The correct cooking temperature for pork (145°F for 15 seconds) and wild game to destroy the Trichinella parasite. - Common exam traps, such as focusing only on pork for Trichinella or believing standard chlorination kills all waterborne parasites.
