Improper food storage can lead to several toxicological risks, including:
Microbial Growth: Bacteria, viruses, and fungi can proliferate in improperly stored food, leading to spoilage and potential health hazards. Chemical Contamination: Exposure to chemicals such as bisphenol A (BPA) from plastic containers can pose risks when food is stored improperly. Formation of Toxins: Certain conditions can promote the formation of natural toxins, such as aflatoxins in improperly stored grains and nuts.
