The cramps in your gut and stomach, vomiting, and diarrhea might begin as early as 1-hour post-consumption of tainted food and as late as 10 days or for a long time. It relies on what is the reason for such infection that is causing food poisoning. The exact symptoms and how worse they will get might vary. They will rely on the kind of bacteria, viruses, or parasite that might infect you, how much these are in your system, and how better your immune system is fighting against it. Despite the huge range of kinds, most food poisoning cases might cause some differences as in the following:

  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea

If you are experiencing mild symptoms, you can imagine that you are having a stomach virus or flu. You might get better without having any treatment. But most people are having some bad symptoms that they might want to visit the hospital.
