Low-microbial diets are advised by many institutions for people with neutropenia resulting from treatment with immunosuppressive drugs or medical conditions that increase their susceptibility to foodborne disease. In this paper the main microbiological hazards associated with foods are outlined and a low-microbial diet in which higher-risk foods are replaced by lower-risk foods is outlined.
