Did You Know?
Food poisoning
Food poisoning is relatively harmless in adults, and is caused by intake of food that has gone bad or is home to several micro-organisms that cause food-borne illnesses. Vomiting, diarrhoea, and nausea are common symptoms. If you do get food poisoning, remember these tips:
- Rest!
- Drink plenty of fluids (more than the usual 8-10 glasses)
- Don’t use anti-diarrheal medication if the cause of diarrhoea is food, as this may slow the elimination of bacteria from your body.
Food poisoning symptoms usually clear up in a few days for adults, but if the symptoms are persistent (and if your child experiences food poisoning), head to the nearest emergency room.
