Timelines for FBI
-Ingestion
-Incubation Period
-Symptomatic (mostly GI symptoms)
symptoms of food poisoning
high fever, over 101.5

prolonged vomiting/dehydration
signs of dehydration-decreased urination, dry mouth and throat, postural hypotension
diarrhea>3 days
how is FBI diagnosed?
specific lab tests including stool cultures of bacteria such as campylobacter, salmonella, and e coli

often not definitively diagnosed because those infected don't seek medical care
general tx for FBI
treat fluid loss by replacing fluids and electrolytes. use pedialyte not sport drinks

Bismuth subsalicylate canreduce severity but not for high fever or bloody diarrhea

Shopping
-avoid dented, bulging cans
-avoid bad odors, off appearance

Thawing
-thaw in refrigerator, not ocunter
-microwave
-cold water bath

Time and Temperature
-the danger zone
Ground beef- 160, chicken170, fish 145

adding a nutrient to a food that wasn't originally there such as calcium to orange juice
Enrichment
taking away a nutrient and adding it back for shelf stability, often take away the fiber
GMO
goal is to increase yield
monosaccharides
