Food poisoning.
Food poisoning.
Diarrhoea
Bacteria and viruses are the most common causes of food poisoning. Parasites, mold, toxins, contaminants and allergens are also causes of food poisoning.
No. It is one of the more common causes of foodborne illness.
One type of food poisoning is Botulism. Botulism is serious food poisoning that is very rare in the US. The toxin enters the nerve cells and blocks transmissions so that muscles become weak. Botulism IS NOT contagious.
The common name for Salmonella is bacterial food poisoning.
I'd say false. No fridges in those days and I read that diarrhoea was a leading cause of death and that is one of the main symptoms of food poisoning
The most common bacterial microorganism to cause food poisoning is by far Escherichia coli - E. coli. Other common bacterial pathogens that cause food poisoning are Salmonella, Campylobacter and Listeria. Common viruses that cause food poisoning are Noroviruses, Rotaviruses and Enteroviruses. In some classifications, Hepatitis A and Hepatitis E viruses are considered to be causes of food poisoning, although they have much longer incubation periods and affect organs outside stomach and intestines. To be complete, it is worth going slightly outside the scope of the question and mention another common cause of food poisoning: toxins (although, they are not organisms - they are biologically active organic and inorganic compounds).
E coli, and Salmonella are 2 of them.
In the food you eat, if it smells it has food poisoning in it
