Good nutrition is essential for people living with HIV, and keeping food safe is just as important.
If you know someone who is living with HIV, share this vital information with them:
Always try to eat fresh food that is well washed, wash hands often and keep the kitchen clean to prevent germs from entering food. Buy foods before the sell-by date and eat them by the best before or use-by dates. Cook chicken, eggs, meat and fish properly - do not eat these foods raw or very rare. Wash all fruit and vegetables properly before eating, and if they have been cut up, keep them stored in the fridge. Water safety is important too, so if your water source is not from a tap, make sure it’s boiled before it’s used for drinking or cooking.
