Hindi translation:KhAdya vishAktta
Explanation:

Botulism is an illness caused by eating food contaminated with clostridium botulinum bacteria. The bacteria grows rapidly in foods that are not stored properly. Foods that are canned improperly, such as asparagus, beets, corn, green beans, mushrooms, liver pate, and tuna may spoil and develop the bacteria spores that create botulism. Also, luncheon meats, ham, sausage, and smoked or salted fish can be improperly stored and develop the bacteria. Foods should be correctly packaged and stored at the proper temperature in order to prevent this bacterium from developing. Symptoms that may occur include double vision, swallowing or speaking difficulties, and respiratory system paralysis. If these symptoms occur, seek medical assistance immediately as this bacteria can be fatal.

agree  englishhindi: Every Khadyavishaktata is not Botulinum, however I agree to the information provided about Botulism. Botulinum toxin secreted by Clostridium spp.(bacteria) which causes botulism is also used by doctors to treat many disorders and for cosmetic therapy.

disagree  englishhindi: Botulism can be included in food poisoning but every food poisoning i.e. khadya vishaktata cannot be Botulism. e.g. Aflatoxicosis (due to fungus) is also a kind of food poisonoing, but it is not at all Botulism
