Foodborne Diseases (DTA) are syndromes consisting of anorexia, nausea, vomiting and / or diarrhea, with or without fever, however these are not limited to digestive symptoms, and extraintestinal manifestations may occur. Are attributed to the ingestion of contaminated food or water and may be caused by physical, chemical or biological agents, the latter group being represented by the parasites, viruses and in particular the bacteria, which may act directly under the organism of the individual or through production of toxins. The occurrence of DTA is a serious problem in public health, since these have a significant negative impact both in the social context, due to the victims that suffer their aggravations, as in the economic one, where large losses are generated in the branches of industry, commerce and tourism. Despite this, for many people this is a matter treated irrelevantly or even for some still unknown, which becomes an aggravating of this problem. The objective of this study is to make a review presenting the panorama of DTA in Brazil, the general aspects related to these diseases and the main bacteria involved in outbreaks in the country.
