Food Poisoning- A food borne disease

Food borne sickness is also referred as food poisoning. The intake of contaminated food results in food poisoning in humans.  The food that contains bacteria, viruses and other toxins makes people vulnerable to food poisoning.
These different toxins enter your body through different sources and make you ill. The major sources of contamination are the dirty hands of food dealers, unclean kitchenware and other service utensils. The food you eat should be prepared at high temperatures and should be preserved in refrigerators to avoid any contamination.

The symptoms appear within 2-5 hours after eating the toxic food. The major sign and symptom of food poisoning include vomiting, headaches, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.

In most cases, it does not need any medical attention but in some cases, if the safety precautions are not taken, the condition can become even worse. There are few safety measures that one can take to avoid making the condition worse such as, avoid taking caffeine, rest and sleep, take light meals and drink plenty of water to overcome the fluid losses.
