John RossAçaí berries, a popular so-called <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/superfood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#superfood</a>, have been linked to a recent outbreak of <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/Chagas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chagas</a> disease in Brazil. Chagas disease is a parasitic infection transmitted through the feces of triatomine insects ("kissing bugs"). If untreated, Chagas may lead to congestive heart failure and megaesophagus.
