food poisoning is caused by consuming food contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, toxins, viruses, prions or parasites.
Such contamination usually arises from improper handling, preparation or storage of food.
Food borne illness can also be caused by adding pesticides or medicines to food, or consuming or by accidentally consuming naturally poisonous substances like poisonous mushrooms or reef fish.
Contact between food and pests, especially flies, rodents and cockroaches, is a further cause of contamination of food.
