Food borne illness may lead to dehydration, Hemolytic
Uremic Syndrome (HUS) and other complications. Acute food borne illness may
also lead to chronic health problems. (National Health Institute, 2010).

Hughes, et al (2009) explains that dehydration is the
most common complication, this can occur from any causes of food poisoning. The
complication of food borne illness depends greatly on the causative. Other
complications include Arthritis, Bleeding problems, damage to the nervous
system, kidney problems and swelling in the tissues around the heart.

Robert (2009) points that in some people especially
children, Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) can result from infection of a
particular bacteria especially pathogenic Escherichia coli and can lead to
kidney failure and death. Anyone can get a food borne illness, however some
people are more likely to develop food borne illness than others including
infants and children, pregnant women and their fetus, older adults, people who
have low immune system.
