Health Problems due to the production of Sriracha sauce
Sriracha sauce was invented in late 1980s, by an immigrant from Vietnamese named David Tran. He started off with a small family company called Huy Fong Foods, a two building place. Due to the increasing demand of the product; in 2012, the production was moved to a 655,000 sq. ft. factory in Irwindale, Los Angeles. Initially, the plant was operating effectively, however in October 2013, the local residents complained about the powerful spicy odor that originates during the production. According to the Los Angeles times, they filed a lawsuit against the company, appealing that the odor was causing trouble in public. They demanded for the company to shut down or hold the production, until they come up with a less odorous production plan. At first, the Huy Fong Foods’ officials cooperated, but later denied having any odor problems. They stated that they have several workers, who work in this kind of setting without any complaints (Shyong, 2013).

King George’s adoration of his chef Henderson William Brand steak sauce’s recipe in 1830 led to the creation of A1 Steak Sauce. Today, A1 Sauce is one of the major brands in Kraft Food’s portfolio, after being acquired in 2000. Over the years, A1 has established itself as the leader in the steak sauce industry being the sauce of choice for 90% of the country’s steak houses.

The possible Fungus spores could pose a health risk based upon data from the NYDHS study, Harry Dobin’s autopsy, and experts in the field. Additionally, the Fungus, presumably, is the cause of the public nuisance (i.e. the odor) and the Fungus spores are the result of Landfill’s
They try to prove that the emission of chemicals from the Shell company are actually hazardous and are released at unsafe concentrations. With respect to the Ecological Model of health, the focus here is the relationship between the citizens and their environment, so any change in the environment can affect the health of citizens (Drummer. 2008). Another focus is the location relative to the Shell company that is an issue. The residents of this town are faced with health problems due to the location of the Shell company, which enforces that Health Geography is a big influence here (Drummer. 2003). Citizens within the Diamond community report increasing rates of asthma in children, along with machines in their house to help prevent/cope with allergies. The location plays a major role as to why these negative health effects are occurring since the chemical plant is emitting these chemicals nearby. When the air was tested, multiple chemicals were found but one that stood out was Benzene which is known to have cancer causing effects (WHO. 2018). Even with this knowledge, the Shell company continued to claim that the living conditions within this city were adequate (Grunberg.
The World Health Organization considered Sarnia as the worst air in all of Canada. This is a serious health concern for the people of Aamjiwnaang, as their community has reported to have higher cancer and miscarriage rates than the national average. One of the major issues that the residents of Aamjiwnaang facing is the chemical leaks from the plants themselves which go unreported often. In 2013, there were three spills of hydrogen sulfide. One of them sent several small children from Aamjiwnaang's daycares to the hospital (Maguire, 2013). Hydrogen sulfide H2S is a significant fatal occupational and environmental hazard that has a danger pattern of toxicity. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a flammable gas, colorless, and has an odor of rotten eggs. The concentration of this gas in the air is more important than the duration of the exposures. the movie also stated that because the shell did not probably alert the community, the children with acute symptoms are usually have a wrong diagnosis of flu or cold while they are suffering from hydrogen sulfide exposure, H2S At a level of 0–5 ppm in the air, it can be detected easily. At levels greater than 10 ppm it can affect human health, while levels of more than 600 ppm can cause death (Rattanapan, Suksaroj, Chumpikul, & Choosong,
For our group community assessment, we assessed the neighbourhood of Moss Park. Throughout our assessment at Moss Park, we noted many of the community’s characteristics including physical environment, resources available, strengths and weaknesses etc… Moss Park is a neighbourhood located in downtown Toronto, the area is mainly comprised of worn-out buildings and houses with a satisfactory number of resources including a public library, school, health care centers, pharmacies etc… During the assessment of this neighbourhood we noticed that the physical environment was contaminated with the presence of garbage on the streets and in residential areas. As we were walking through this area during our assessment, we noticed a strong smell of cigarette smoke in many areas on the streets and in some residential areas. We also observed many people smoking in the area which creates a harmful environment of second-hand smoke. Lastly, we noted th...
Aconite is a highly poisonous plant. There are many varieties/relatives of this plant, and those vary in medicinal properties and toxicity. All parts of the plant contain the poison, although the root is the thing most commo...
Cranberry sauce * is a symbol during the holidays. Still, the items on the scales are insulting and no sense of texture is sound. Additionally, it's easy to make your own with a daily change of the calendar.
The location of secretory structures and the presence of essential oils and alkaloids were investigated (Corsi and Biasci, 1998).The consumption of varying parts of the plants (leaves, fruits) can cause different degrees of clinical effects and there appears to be different susceptibility to toxicity between species. The primary time of year for poison hemlock is spring; often when there is insufficient forage available. At this time the plant may also be more palatable. The toxicity increases throughout the growing season and the roots become toxic only later in the year. Once dried, the toxicity is considered to be reduced but not eliminated. The plant causes different signs and lesions in different species of animals (Dougall and Maureen,

Summary: Herbs have been used for centuries in medical history containing their names and the benefits of the plants being used more than its beauty. Plants are prime targets in making new clinical trials with their bioactive components. Valerian also known as, Valeriana Officinalis, is a perennial plant native to Europe and Asia and naturalized in the United States. It has a distinctive odor that many find unpleasant [2,3]. Other names include setwall (English), Valerianae radix (Latin), Baldrianwurzel (German), and phu (Greek). The genus Valerian includes over 250 species, but V. officinalis is the species most often used in the United States and Europe and is the only species discussed in this fact sheet (Health Professions 2013). In addition, the Valerian genome-sequencing project (VBGP) will benefit medicine in human health in understanding why certain sequences in plants help people’s pains and disorders. Valerian contains many biological activities derived from a larger chemical known as sesquiterpenes. Joe Chappell professor of plant chemistry at the University of Kentucky says ““Chemicals like you find in Valeriana, especially the sesquiterpene molecules, have represented a conceptual challenge ... because they’re very
Aconite is a highly toxic plant; it acts especially on the nerve centres. If you are poisoned by Aconite following symptoms may occur: a burning sensation on the tongue, vomiting, stomach pain and diarrhoea. The root contains 90 % more poison than the leaves.
Food borne illnesses are caused by consuming contaminated foods or beverages. There are many different disease-causing microbes, or pathogens. In addition, poisonous chemicals, or other harmful substances can cause food borne illnesses if they are present in food. More than two hundred and fifty different food borne illnesses have been described; almost all of these illnesses are infections. They are caused by a variety of bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can be food borne. (Center 1)
The patient has experienced fever, chills on body, headaches and anorexia as well as sweating especially during the night. The patient has also been feeling fatigued, muscle aches and nausea as well as vomiting especially after eating (WHO, 2010, p. 117). These symptoms started forty eight hours ago, and the patient has not taken any medication except for some aspirin.
Food poisoning is a condition that results from eating contaminated food. It is also referred to as food-borne illness. These may attack people from any age group and lasts from few hours to several days. Food poisoning in severe case may cause chronic and fatal disease like arthritis and can attack lungs and kidneys.
