What is food poisoning.

What is food poisoning.

As the article say here, no one put any poison to your food, but the bacteria probably grew in the food in the fridge and that make you sick. Bacteria can be last for a very short time or it can be grow more seriously.

Food poisoning comes from eating foods that contain germs like bad bacteria or toxins, which are poisonous substances. Bacteria are all around us, so mild cases of food poisoning are common. You may have had mild food poisoning — with diarrhea and an upset stomach — but your mom or dad just called it a stomach bug or stomach virus.

You might think the solution is to get rid of all the bacteria. But it isn't possible and you wouldn't want to do it, even if you could. Bacteria are all around us, including in food, and sometimes they can be good for you. It's confusing, but one thing is for sure — the bacteria in the rotten leftovers weren't good for you. But you can learn how to avoid those bad germs in food.

Food poisoning may not found out straightly after you had the food, it may appear in few days, and is better to see people around you whom have eaten the same food as you and check if they have any sick or not. If they do, its better to find a doctor to check immediately.
