Food Poisoning

Food poisoning is caused due to consumption of contaminated food. It is caused due to presence of infectious organisms-such as bacteria (E.coliListeria, and Salmonella), parasites (Toxoplasma, Giardia intestinalis), toxins and viruses (Norwalk virus) in food. This contamination of food may occur during production, transportation, storage of food. Contaminated water and meat/fish are main causes for illness, as long storage of meat products unrefrigerated leads to its contamination.

Symptoms for food poisoning include weakness, headaches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, blood stools, stomach cramps and dehydration. It occurs commonly in people with weakened immune systems, pregnant women, infants and young children and the elderly.
