Behind the scenes of food poisoning: Understanding the bacteria that cause illness
Food poisoning is a common illness that affects millions of people each year. It is caused by bacteria that can contaminate food and beverages, leading to symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and fever. While the symptoms of food poisoning can be uncomfortable and even life-threatening, it is possible to prevent these illnesses by understanding the bacteria that cause them. In this situation, a food safety management system should be created that allows for estimation of the risks to human health from food consumption as well as identification, selection, and application of mitigation solutions for these risks. Also, it is advised that all parties involved in the production and consumption of food use appropriate food safety education programmes.
