In addition to warning people about the dangers of consuming tainted food and water, a neurologist from the All india Institute of Medical Sciences has identified gastroenteritis as one of the main causes of Guillain-Barre syndrome, or GBS.
In addition to paying attention to your nutrition, Dr. priyanka Sehrawat advises avoiding items that may aggravate this uncommon but curable ailment, such as paneer, cheese, and rice. "Avoid dining out. Steer clear of tainted water and food. "Take care of your immunity too," Dr. Sehrawat said on Instagram, adding that you should only eat fruits and vegetables after thoroughly washing them because improper handling or storage can lead to bacterial development. She also suggested eating foods high in vitamin c to strengthen immunity.

What is Guillain-Barre syndrome?
Your immune system assaults your peripheral nerves in GBS, a rare autoimmune disease that causes symptoms including numbness, tingling, and muscular weakness that eventually lead to paralysis or even death. The disorder arises when your peripheral nerves are attacked by an aberrant immune response. Although GBS may develop at any age, experts say that those in their 30s to 50s are most likely to have it. Your peripheral nerves, which regulate touch, temperature, and muscular movement, are impacted by Guillain-Barré syndrome.
Signs and symptoms of GBS
Guillain-Barré syndrome's first symptoms include:
Weakness in muscles
Feelings of tingling, particularly in your legs and feet
severe back and/or leg muscle soreness
Your arms, legs, and face muscles are paralyzed.
Weakness in the chest muscles that makes breathing difficult
Speaking and swallowing difficulties
Having trouble moving your eyes and visual problems
Experts say that GBS symptoms can develop over a few days, weeks, or even hours. Within the first two weeks following the onset of symptoms, the majority of persons have the most severe stage of weakness. Approximately 90% of people are at their weakest by the third week.
