Foreign bodies in food

In food production, due to errors in the manufacturing processes, contaminants or foreign bodies such as aluminum or plastic residues can occur again and again.

Foreign bodies in food can cause many different injuries and discomforts.

Depending on the size, condition and material of the swallowed body wounds in the mouth and throat may occur during chewing.

Swallowed plastic parts can - depending on the size - block the esophagus or the digestive organs.

If smaller parts remain in the body, they can sometimes cause inflammation. Also, digestive or stomach problems and internal injuries can not be ruled out.

Above all, it can be dangerous if the objects are glass. (Ad)
