That&#8217;s due to the presence of infectious bacteria salmonella, which can cause severe illness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The symptoms of salmonella infection include diarrhoea, fever, headache and abdominal cramps. Onset of symptoms is normally between 12 and 36 hours after infection, but can range between six and 72.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Rosabella Moringa\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/0_Moringa-image_1.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p aria-label=\"Rosabella Moringa\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">Rosabella Moringa<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">FSAI said: &#8220;The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days.
