Although food poisoning is a common and often mild illness, it can also prove deadly.  Over 5 million people in the UK suffer food poisoning every year, but only a small percentage seek medical advice.  If you have suffered from food poisoning, Farnworth Rose Solicitors can help you to claim the compensation you deserve.

Causes of food poisoning

If food or drink is contaminated with bacteria, viruses or parasites, and eaten, it can cause food poisoning.  Not as common but still a danger, is food which has been contaminated with chemicals.  Often the look and the smell of food does not change, even when carrying harmful bacteria, and people may not notice anything different until it has been eaten.

Poor hygiene in food preparation areas and not storing or cooking food properly can result in:-

1. Diarrhoea
2. Vomiting
3. Stomach ache
4. Tiredness
5. High temperature

Most health problems which occur as a result of food poisoning only last a few days, but sometimes, symptoms can be serious and long-lasting.    Common causes of food poisoning are e-coli, salmonella, listeria and shigella.
