Dr K. Prameela- food contamination, spoilage and prevention
Importance of food- I don’t need a sliver fork to eat food.
Nutrients and type of food is important
6 principles of diet-maintain carbohydrates, proteins,
vitamins, minerals, take water
Balanced diet- has all nutrients in required amounts. This
maintains health condition
This helps prevent diseases
Food has carbohydrate, protein and fats- required for
energy.
Food contamination leads to illness-
Salmonella causes gastrointestinal issues
Even soil bacteria- Clostridium , if transferred to plant
and then to animal causes sickness
Containers, kitch utensils also cause problem
Sheigella, noro virus, hepatitis A- may be present on
utensils and cause problems
E.coli and Salmonells remains in containers for 4 hr,
hepatitis- for few months
Personal hygiene and handling is important
Dioxine contaminated chickens- in fatty tissues of meat or
chicken
Hormone injected cattle- can cause problems or allergies to
us
Pesticides in water – can cause issue to our health
Soft drinks have pesticides. It is around 7 to 24 % high it

Physical contaminants are to be removed by physical methods
Chemical contaminants- pesticides, rodenticides, herbicides,
food additives, drugs, metals, and other toxins cause issues to our health
Utensils should be maintained properly.
Biological contaminants- bacteria, fungi, insects, parasites
Yogurt has probiotics
Food spoilage factors: not fit to eat
Colour, texture, smell etc will be changed by bacteria
Food poising bacteria – very dangerous can’t be detected by
taste or colour.. food looks normal
