I eat broccoli daily so I bought about 18 frozen bags of it to have on hand. I unfortunately ate over half of the bags over a period of almost three weeks. I normally have fatigue & headaches but noticed that they were worse than usual, & other symptoms, like low-grade fevers & chills would come & go. The results of my nares nasal culture showed large amounts of Pseudomonas Flourescens, which is used sometimes to promote faster growth of produce, according to PubMed. Per PubMed, PF can cause bacterial head rot of broccoli: Also, symptoms of rashes & congested lungs. some of the broccoli was a bit brown & other parts were a bit gray. I thought nothing of it (organic broccoli is hard to come by in my small town) & just threw away the bad parts before cooking the rest which I unfortunately assumed would be OK to eat. | Symptoms: Fever, Skin Rash, Headache, Chills
