I see a lot of people pairing botulism with like bad food? What is it about food that’s gone bad that makes botulism happen? What even is botulism? Obvi I can search it up, but I want to be explained it in very very laymens terms and to why it happens
In: Biology
Others have explained where it comes from, but to make it a bit clearer; Botulism is the illness brought on by the Botulinum toxin. The bacteria Botulinum secretes a series of toxins called Botulinum toxin, which causes the condition known as Botulism. It can be a bit confusing with so many similar names referring to distinctly different things.
