7 ways to avoid food poisoning.

When you are in doubt of the source or good preparation of
a meal, you should try to seek more information and in
most cases prepare food yourself to clear any doubts you
might have.
Read "How you should eat" »
Alfred Ihenkuronye Professor of Food Science and
Technology, has said that more than 200,000 persons die of
food poison in Nigeria annually. The sad thing is that, many
would not even know it is food poisoning. They just look at
the symptoms and try to treat that alone.
Also reported by the managing consultant at First HACCP
System, Mrs. Zainab Akanji reported that 99% of Nigerians
eat outside (eateries, restaurants, parties) and adverse
effects are under reported.
Finding out exactly how hygienic a meal was prepared is
almost impossible to know, especially when you are not the
one who prepared the meal. But there some sign you
should take note about to avoid being food poisoned.
Consume salad within 15 minutes of purchase
Make sure of the hygiene level as it affects the food
Insist on micro waving/heating your food
Avoid foods displayed inside show glasses with bulb
Plates, Spoons, Food Containers and other utensils
Ensure that your own hygiene level is good too
Read the labels on the food container
