Answer:
By good personal hygiene food contamination caused by pathogens on food handler's body can be controlled.
Explanation:
A very good personal hygiene should be maintained by food handlers to reduce the chances of contamination of food from bacteria and other microbes they harbour on their body. Washing hands before and after food handling is compulsory because hands could contain lots of bacteria that can come in contact with food by food handlers.
Further explanation:
Food is a good nutrition source for both humans and microbes so it can be contaminated easily by food handlers if a food handler does not follow a good personal hygiene.
A food handler can contaminate food which can cause food borne diseases like salmonellosis, toxoplasmosis, staphylococcal infection, clostridial infection, etc.
A food handler can spread bacteria that cause these food borne diseases while preparing food because these bacteria can be present on handler's hands, clothes, hairs, nails and skin.
Therefore a high standard of personal hygiene should be maintained by food handlers like washing of hands with sanitizer before and after preparation of food, wearing protective and washed clothes, avoiding coughing and smoking during food handling, tying hair, not wearing jewellery and keeping nails short.
