3 Natural Food Poisoning Remedies That Actually Work

You certainly have heard about salmonella, right?

Many people know it as the biggest responsability for food poisoning.

Salmonella enterica and Salmonella bongori are types of bacteria transmitted by poorly cooked eggs, chicken, beef and pork, non-pasteurized dairy, seafood or contaminated vegetables.

Did you know that Salmonella bacteria can affect chickens' ovaries and infect an egg even before it is laid?

Some food can also be contaminated by animal's feces or by people who handle infected foods and don't wash their hands properly after going to the toilet.

Did you know that gastric acid usually destroys Salmonella?

So, to actually suffer from food poisoning, it is necessary to consume a great amount of this bacteria, unless the person has a gastric acid deficiency.

This deficiency can happen in: children under 1-year old, old people or people who take antacids or any medicines that suppress gastric acid production.

The main symptoms of this sickness are abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea, and they usually appear 12 to 36 hours after the ingestion of contaminated foods.

In most cases, the symptoms occur for a limited and determined period.

This way, the treatment can be done at home, aiming to alleviate the symptoms and keep the patient well hydrated.
