Someone may accidentally consume contaminated goods or drink polluted water. Before being transferred to the hospital, they may require first-aid treatment.
Some people do not seek medical attention until they have recovered from food poisoning. There are items kids can take rapidly to help their bodies fight the poison’s effects.
When you ingest contaminated food, you may experience stomach pain, vomit, or have regular, watery bowel motions.
In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at 4 things you should do, if you get food poisoning.
1. First and foremost, you must refrain from drinking or eating anything for some time. After that, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated because you’ve probably lost a lot of fluids due to your watery bowel motions and vomiting.
Drink non-caffeinated energy drinks and carbonated beverages. Caffeine-free tea is also an option.
2. Avoid high-fat foods because they are difficult to digest when you have gastrointestinal infections. Make sure you only eat easy-to-digest meals like oatmeal, bananas, rice, and potatoes.
3. Toxins are naturally removed from our bodies. Allow your body’s digestive system to cleanse itself and avoid using drugs that prevent you from pooping.
Only eat meals that will aid your body’s natural cleansing process. You can drink ginger tea to help your stomach feel better during this time.

4. You can take probiotic pills or drink plain yoghurt. This will aid your body in regaining the good bacteria that were lost during your purge due to food poisoning.
To avoid aggravating your illness, stay away from alcohol, fruit juice, fried meals, and milk.
