Being healthy: Microorganism and food

It is good being back on the blog. Yes, i know its been a while. Hope you are all keeping good health conditions. If you are not, you have to start today because its the most important thing in our life to keep us going.

Life is so precious its just like gold, pearls and the rest. If we can keep those precious golds and diamond then we should keep our health more better.

Buglars are more spontaneous in their action when stealing our precious golds and diamond than diseases to our health but disease have more adverse effect which can claim our lives. Remember when life is gone it can not be duplicated nor gotten back.

Health, foods, nutrients and diet all makes the life. Food we consume can be good but all the nutrients can be lost through the invasion of microorganisms. This invasion will deprive us our food, the nutrients and may cause diseases or even death in some cases.

We should all be aware that food high in nutritional value and water content will be attacked easily by microorganism which can either be a food spoilage organism or a pathogen which causes diseases. I will like to share this little experience of mine with you guys.

About 4 weeks ago, I was in a five-day seminar on nutrition and dietetics. I was opportuned to go with a female friend which was a fellow nutritionist. After the first day seminar we went to a restaurant nearby to get something to eat. I ordered for my food and she ordered for hers which was salad.  I told her about the consequence when it comes to the invasion of microorganism but she insisted on the nutritional content of the salad.

We left the restaurant after eating our foods then we went to the rooms which was allocated for us.  Two hours later, she complained of a stomach ache which she claimed to be acute. We had to rush her to the hospital and to cut the long story short, we discovered that it was due to the action of microorganism present in the salad she ate. I went back to the restaurant and i discovered that the salad was not kept in a good condition when it was consumed.

This incidence made me realize that the safety of our food is very important for us to elongate the shelf life and keep the nutrients still. We should all remember that being healthy brings peace of mind and give us hope to live our life to the fullest.

Have you ever had any incidence in relations to food and microorganism?
