Food Poisoning

Food poisoning, also referred to as foodborne illness, is a common but preventable condition. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) one out of every six Americans experience food poisoning each year. Food poisoning is caused by ingesting (eating) foods contaminated with harmful pathogens. The most common symptoms of food poisoning are nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, chills and in severe cases, dehydration.

Causes of Food Poisoning

A person can potentially get food poisoning from any food or liquid they ingest. Some foods are more prone to getting contaminated compared to others but people who handle foods such as cooks, servers, customers, processors, and workers who pick produce, etc., can pass harmful bacteria, parasites and viruses onto foods they touch. A study that covered food poisoning from 1998 – 2008 and released in 2013 found that 51% of food poisoning cases were caused by plant products and 48% were caused by animal products including beef, pork, poultry and seafood.

Regardless of the kind of food you got food poisoning from, if your food getting contaminated was caused by negligence, a good food poisoning lawyer in Alexandria, VA may be able to get compensation for expenses related to your illness.
