What are the treatments for food poisoning while traveling?

Once a tourist is found to have food poisoning, the most important thing is to induce vomiting, so that the poisoned person can vomit out the food he or she has eaten. The method of inducing vomiting is to put chopsticks or fingers into the mouth of the poisoned person and gently scratch the throat to encourage the patient to vomit. If possible, the poisoned person can be given salt water or raw egg white to help vomiting.

For patients with mild poisoning, you can drink some thin batter after vomiting to protect the patient's stomach. You can also give the poisoned person some strong tea, which has detoxification and diuretic effects and promotes the toxins to be eliminated from the urine as soon as possible. You can also let the poisoned person drink some cooking oil to absorb and excrete the toxins.

For patients with severe poisoning, they should be sent to the hospital for rescue as soon as possible after inducing vomiting.
