\nAt the conclusion of the scientific discussions, the workshop issued a series of important recommendations, foremost among which was the need to activate and strengthen food safety oversight at all stages of white meat production and storage to ensure it is free from chemical residues and microbial activity. The speakers also emphasized the importance of raising public health awareness regarding proper and optimal methods for storing and cooking meat, as well as the need to avoid harmful practices that lead to food contamination, which negatively impacts public health.
