What Happens When You Get Food Poising

It's crazy to think that many fast food places don't sanitize, wipe of counters and tables and make sure that the food they are serving you is done and right. But, they don't. In some fast food places, I notice a sign on the mirror, in the restroom that states: "wash your hands, before you come back to work". Many people (employees and customers) don't even notice the sign at all. It's not shocking that many employees don't wash their hands or sanitize, when they are really suppose to. Especially in a fast food restaurant. Many things get missed. But, in a fast food restaurant, you shouldn't miss or skip on sanitizing to keep their employees safe and especially their customers safe. There are many cases out here, that involves food poising in these fast food places. Here are some food poising symptoms that everyone should know about.

1. Stomach pain

Stomach pain is one of the main symptoms of food poising. If you are having extreme stomach pain, for example cramping or tightness of the stomach. You might have food poising. The stomach pain will hurt so bad that you wouldn't be able to eat or sleep. The stomach pain might come and go through out the day.


2. Vomiting

Another main symptom of food poising is vomiting.Vomiting is another important symptom. If you are vomiting a lot and haven't even eating anything, you might have food poising. Sometimes even dry heaving, like you're about to vomit is from food poising. If you are trying to eat or drink something and it will not stay down. You might need to consider going to the doctor about food poising.


3. Low energy/nausea

This is not a main food posing symptom. But, it is something to consider. When you have food poising your energy level is very low. You can barley move, let alone walk the block around your house. The only thing you can do is lay in bed all day. You don't even have the energy to sit up in bed all you can do is lay down until the food poising pass. Another symptom you can have with food poising is nausea. Some people get the symptom and others don't. But, you can instantly get queasy and have the urge to vomit but don't. This is a common symptom for food poising.


4. Diarrhea

Diarrhea is one of the main symptoms to have. Food poising causes a lot of trips to the bathroom between vomiting and diarrhea. Diarrhea can be very severe. After every meal that you eat or every time you drink something, you have to go to the bathroom. You just might have food poising. if it gets to severe, seek a doctor's help.

Thank you for reading my article this week! I know it was off topic from fashion. But, I just wanted to talk about food poising because I actually just had it myself. Next week I will go back to fashion. I will be talking about The trends for the fall and the new fall colors.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
