For questions 1 and 2 I'm providing an attachment of Food and Nutrition this should help you answer both these questions.

For question 3 in Google type in "symptoms of gastrointestinal upset". The symptoms can be the cause of someone not being able to attend work.

For questions 4 and 5 I'm adding a link to the Food Standards of Australia and New Zealand. You should be able to find the information from here:
