Food safety is a area concerned with handling, preparation, and storage of food in ways that prevent food borne illness. This includes a number of measures that should be followed to avoid potentially severe health hazards. There is also evidence that organic food often contains relatively high amounts of natural toxic compounds produced by fungi or plants, whereas corresponding conventional food tends to contain more synthetic toxins such as pesticide residues, toxins and other contaminants and additives. "Food safety" implies absence or acceptable and safe levels of contaminants, adulterants, naturally occurring toxins or any other substance that may make food injurious to health on an acute or chronic basis. Food toxicology is the study of the nature, properties, effects and detection of toxic substances in food and their disease manifestation in humans. Radioactive elements, heavy metals, or the packing materials used in food processing are examples of such substances. Food and nutritional toxicologists deal with toxicants in food, the health effects of high nutrient intakes, and the interactions between toxicants and nutrients.
The toxicity assessment portion is where toxicologic pathologist is most directly involved. This stage of risk assessment involves identifying potential hazards and developing dose–response information for effects of interest. In environmental assessments , the critical effect is used to develop reference values that represent doses below which significant adverse effects are not expected under the anticipated exposure conditions.

Toxic chemical as any substance which may be harmful to the environment or hazardous to your health if inhaled ingested or absorbed through the skin. Many toxic chemicals occur in nature. For example, plants produce toxic chemicals to protect themselves from pests. Animals produce toxins for protection and to capture prey. In other cases, toxic chemicals are simply a by-product of metabolism. Some natural elements and minerals are poisonous.

A foodborne infection is an inflammation of the stomach and bowels. The infection can happen when you eat or drink something that is contaminated by a bacteria, virus or parasite. Often the inflammation leads to diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, abdominal cramps and sometimes fevers. A foodborne infection can last between one and three days. Many foodborne infections occur at people’s homes, simply due to poor hygiene . It’s as easy as this: preparing food without hand washing after visiting the toilet d food. Cross-contamination is also a risk, for instance if raw meat and lettuce are both chopped on the same cutting board. Even using the same knife to chop both could cause contamination by foodborne pathogens. Eating meat or fish that is not cooked all the way through, or eating raw shellfish, increases the risk of food-borne infections.
