Food Poisoning is a serious problem in our country. Food poisoning can make just one person sick or it can result in an outbreak causing multiple injuries to multiple people.

Many individuals who contract food borne illness will be hospitalized and several thousand will die.

Food Poisoning Symptoms and Complications

A person infected with a food borne illness may experience a wide array of symptoms which may include the following:

  • Chills
  • Vomiting
  • Convulsions
  • Flu-like symptoms
  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Stomach cramps and pain
  • Fever
  • Blood in urine

Symptoms may vary in severity, may appear immediately or several days following ingestion, and may last for hours or even months. Food poisoning can lead to further complications if not treated.  Food poisoning can result from undercooked meat, meals prepared by people who have not properly sanitized their hands, and a multitude of other causes.

Many large food chains have experienced outbreaks of food poisoning.  California spinach farmers had to deal with an entire crop of contaminated spinach.  Food poisoning is, unfortunately, extremely common.
