Food/Supplements

Lawsuits involving food and supplements can include food poisoning cases, food product recalls, food allergies, false advertising or labeling, vitamins or supplements problems. Dietary supplements and weight loss pills can be very dangerous since they are not regulated by the FDA.

In the news, mad cow disease and avian flu are both deadly human diseases transmitted through food products. E-coli is another food-borne infection that can lead to kidney damage or death. Outbreaks of these diseases can affect thousands of people.

Food poisoning cases can be very severe leading to Salmonella, Shigella, Hepatitis A, Listeria monocytogenes, e-coli outbreaks, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens, Campylobacter, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Bacillus cereusforeign, Norovirus, Toxoplasma gondii, and Vibrio vulnificus.

Became violently ill less than 24 hrs of eating this product.
Defendant: ~ConAgra Foods Inc. (salmonella peanut butter)
It happened the day after Christmas, 2006. My grandson and myself both love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, so that's what we had for lunch, and the next day we were both sick. Vomitting, diarrhea, and fever. We started feeling somewhat better on the fourth day, but were very weak from lack of food.
