What are the risks to health?

The presence of Salmonella exposes the consumer to the risk of salmonellosis, a food tofeon. Symptoms generally appear between 6 and 72 hours after ingestion and result in gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, sometimes accompanied by fever and headache. These signs can be more serious in young children, the elderly, pregnant women or immunocompromised people. Note: complete cooking to heart (+65 ° C) makes it possible to eliminate the risk linked to the bacteria.
