Food Poisoning Explained
Food poisoning is an illness from eating or drinking food or water contaminated with bacteria, viruses, parasites or their toxins. It typically brings vomiting, diarrhoea and cramps within hours or a day or two, and healthy adults usually recover at home.
Causes and Risk Factors
Bacteria such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella and disease-causing types of E. coli are the most common culprits. These include ETEC (enterotoxigenic E. coli), a leading cause of traveller’s diarrhoea, and EHEC (enterohaemorrhagic or Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli), which can cause bloody diarrhoea and, rarely, kidney complications. Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus toxins cause very fast vomiting within hours, and norovirus and Giardia are also common. Typical sources are undercooked chicken or minced meat, raw eggs, unpasteurised milk, shellfish, reheated rice, salads washed in untreated water, ice, and food left warm at buffets.
How Food Poisoning Feels
- Fever, chills and tiredness
- Stomach cramps and bloating
- Signs of dehydration: dry mouth, dizziness, dark urine
- Headache and muscle aches
Avoiding Food Poisoning on Holiday
Choose food that is freshly cooked and served hot, avoid buffet dishes that have sat out, drink sealed or bottled water, be careful with ice, raw eggs and unpasteurised milk, and wash your hands before eating.
Care and Treatment for Food Poisoning
The physician asks what you ate and when, who else is ill and how dehydrated you are, and can arrange a stool or blood test at your hotel. Most cases need fluids rather than antibiotics, and antibiotics are normally avoided if EHEC is suspected. Anti-sickness medicine can be prescribed and an IV drip arranged if you cannot keep fluids down. Depending on your case, the physician may suggest oral rehydration, anti-sickness medicine where appropriate, and antibiotics only when the doctor decides they are needed.
- Sip oral rehydration solution little and commonly, even if you are vomiting
- Eat plain foods such as rice, toast, bananas or soup once your appetite returns
- Wash your hands well and do not prepare food for others while you are ill
- Do not take anti-diarrhoea tablets if you have a fever or blood in your stool unless a doctor advises it
- Rest, and avoid alcohol, fatty or spicy food for a day or two
