5 things you should do if you get poisoned

If you feel pressed or weird after eating it might mean you have been poisoned. If your suspicion seems obvious here are five things to do to save yourself:

Disable the Effect: The first step is to disable the effect of the poison. Water, pure honey, and red palm oil are considered useful in neutralizing poison.

Seek Medical Help: Recognize the symptoms and seek medical attention promptly.

Remove Contaminated Clothing: If the poisoning is due to contact with a toxic substance, quickly remove any contaminated clothing and wash the skin with soap and cool water.

Stay Hydrated: Drink water subsequently to reduce the effect of the poison. This will make you throw up what you eaten.

Preventive Measures: Practice good hygiene and food safety to prevent being poisoned. Always keep an eye on your food and don’t leave your edibles unattended to.
