DON'T EAT DURING PREGNANCY IN A CHAIN RESTAURANT OR A FAST FOOD PLACE
We have seen many patients with symptoms of food posioning after they ate out in a chain resturant or in a fast food place. Food from chain restaurants is usually not locally prepared and usually not freshly made. Whenever possible you should NOT eat out in a fast food place or a chain restaurant.There are lawfirms specializing in food poisonings.
Hundreds of organisms have been involved in food poisoning cases including: Listeria, Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shigella, E.coli, Botulism, Fish Poisoning.
