What is Toxoplasma?

Toxoplasma is a harmful parasite that can be found in raw and undercooked meats, unwashed fruits and vegetables, soil, and cat litter boxes.  If you have a cat, have someone else change the litter box if possible during your pregnancy.  Wear gloves while gardening or handling sand from a sandbox.  Make sure that your food is washed thoroughly and is fully cooked, and avoid all raw meat including sushi.
