      Updated: 2013-06-11 13:44:56 CST Category: Kidney Diseases
      Eight states across the U.S. have reported increases in hepatitis A diagnoses - a spike in the condition that has been linked to a specific brand of berries sold in Costco and Harris Teeter stores, HealthDay News reported.
      As of June 10, 2013, 87 people have been affected by the outbreak in the following states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Washington.
      According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all of infected individuals purchased and may have consumed Townsend Farms Organic Antioxidant Blend frozen berry and pomegranate mix.
      The Oregonian reported that Costco has sold nearly 333,000 packages of the Townsend Farms Organic Antioxidant Blend across the nation. The Oregon-based company has since recalled the mix, while Costco has removed it from shelves. Both are urging consumers to return frozen blends purchased as far back as February 2013.
      The news source has reported that this product by Townsend Farms features foods from the U.S., Argentina, Chile and Turkey.
      According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the symptoms of hepatitis A include fatigue, muscle soreness, fever, loss of appetite, dark yellow urine and jaundice.
      The World Health Organization reported that signs of the condition can start to manifest physically within 14 to 28 days of infection.
      For individuals who are concerned about the risks of hepatitis A transmission, ordering a lab test online can help alleviate stress and produce verifiable and accurate results.
      Liver panels, which can be used to determine the health of a liver, are typically recommended for those who fear they may be affected by a disease in that vital organ.

      Damn, does hepatitis a eventually clear up or is it a lifetime disease?
      I knew a guy one time who got jaundice from doing tons of parabolan for about a year. He turned orange and his eyeballs were bright yellow. He thought he was going to have to get a liver transplant. scary shit

      That was the first time I ever saw someone really ****ed up from too much gear. I dont think it was hepatitis, maybe it was, but he said it was from too much parabolan. It was in the 90s, before tren and fina craze. I remember when I saw him, it scared the hell out of me LOL
      Ok, sorry, this is a thread about tainted berries...I wonder how much pesticide is in a bag of wal mart frozen berries? I mean, most people just pour them from the bag into the blender and never think to wash them off.
