Salmonella, E. coli, Cyclospora, and other germs that cause food poisoning: What you need to know
Bacteria, parasites, and viruses can all cause food poisoning. Proper handling, cooking, and storage of food help reduce the chances of an infection. If you get food poisoning, it usually can be treated at home by replenishing lost fluids and electrolytes.
