Food Poisoning Explained
Contaminated food or drink that carries germs or their toxins causes food poisoning. It typically brings vomiting, diarrhoea and cramps within hours or a day or two, and healthy adults generally recover at home.
Signs of Food Poisoning to Look for
- Nausea and sudden vomiting
- Stomach cramps and bloating
- Watery diarrhoea, sometimes with blood
- Signs of dehydration: dry mouth, dizziness, dark urine
- Fever, chills and tiredness
Common Triggers
Bacteria such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella and disease-causing types of E. coli are the most common culprits. These include ETEC (enterotoxigenic E. coli), a leading cause of traveller’s diarrhoea, and EHEC (enterohaemorrhagic or Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli), which can cause bloody diarrhoea and, rarely, kidney complications. Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus toxins cause very fast vomiting within hours, and norovirus and Giardia are also common. Typical sources are undercooked chicken or minced meat, raw eggs, unpasteurised milk, shellfish, reheated rice, salads washed in untreated water, ice, and food left warm at buffets.

How to Lower Your Risk of Food Poisoning
Choose food that is freshly cooked and served hot, avoid buffet dishes that have sat out, drink sealed or bottled water, be careful with ice, raw eggs and unpasteurised milk, and wash your hands before eating.
Getting Food Poisoning Treated in Konakli
The doctor asks what you ate and when, who else is ill and how dehydrated you are, and can arrange a stool or blood test at your hotel. Most cases need fluids rather than antibiotics, and antibiotics are normally avoided if EHEC is suspected. Anti-sickness medicine can be prescribed and an IV drip arranged if you cannot keep fluids down. Typical choices are oral rehydration, anti-sickness medicine where suitable, and antibiotics only when the physician decides they are needed.
- Do not take anti-diarrhoea tablets if you have a fever or blood in your stool unless a doctor advises it
- Sip oral rehydration solution little and frequently, even if you are vomiting
- Eat plain foods such as rice, toast, bananas or soup once your appetite returns
