Prions are scary as hell. Can I become infected with a prion from drinking bone broth (chicken, beef or lamb) or are the risks about the same as eating a cheeseburger from McDonald’s?
In: Biology
It takes insanely high temps to destroy prions, in theory yes. That being said, they’re only a problem if you eat the brains of an infected deer/moose/elk/cow, maybe a few other species. It’s very rare, and isn’t likely to happen from any store bought meat.
