11. Certain Poisons
It’s very rare that you would have deliberate exposure to a type of poison – of course, unless anyone reading this has someone who is looking to collect a few thousand on their life insurance policy, that is. But you might be exposed to a poison by accident in several different ways, including the fact that some of the poisons may have come into contact with your food while being transported, or with your produce if it has been treated for pesticides at any point in the process.
If you suspect that you have ingested any type of poison accidentally, then you should seek immediate medical attention while you try to establish which poison has been ingested and how – this can be of great help to your medical team when they are trying to treat the symptoms. In advanced cases of poison ingestion, vomiting, nausea and fainting are characteristic and dangerous symptoms.
