When putting your guest list together, make sure that food poisoning doesn't get an invite.                                                                        |                                                                                              |                                                                                                                                                                               Keep Bacteria Off the Menu                                                                                                                           Bacteria grows best between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit.

Well, it's not actually related to the flu at all -- but that doesn't make it any less unpleasant! Here's how to feel better if it happens to you.                                                                                                                         |                                                                                                                                                Should You See a Doctor?                                                                                                                           Gastrointestinal symptoms are common, but when do you know that things have crossed the line from "treat it at home" to "call the doctor"?                                                                                                                         |                                                                            |                                                                                                                                                             |                                                                                                                                               |                                                                                         Health Ads                                          |                              |                              |                              |                                                                                            Featured Articles                                                                                          |                                                                            |                                                                                                                                          |   |                                                                                                                                               |                                                                                                                              More from About.com                                                                                            |                              |                              |                              |                              |                                                                                   |                                                                                           Bake Sale Bestsellers                                                                                             Make your next bake sale a profitable one with these irresistible recipes.
