Precautions for killing steak parasites:

Pay attention to personal hygiene, improve your diet and hygiene habits, and wash your hands before meals and after using the toilet. Reduce the risk of parasites.

When buying beef to make steak, don’t be greedy for new things. Be sure to cook it completely before eating it, which will help kill the parasites in the steak.

When buying steaks from supermarkets or online, be sure to choose steaks that have been inspected and quarantined. Such steaks have fewer parasites.

The steaks in Western restaurants have been processed and are relatively safe. Therefore, when eating Western food out, you must choose a regular and safe Western restaurant to avoid eating parasites.

Be sure to wash the cutting board and knives with boiling water after cutting the beef bought from the vegetable market or supermarket. Do not eat raw or undercooked beef.
