Answers:
Aflatoxin poisoning is a prime cause of liver cancer in some countries. In the US aflatoxin poisoning is mainly associated with eating contaminated raw peanuts. In other countries, especially China and west Africa, the contaminated food source varies but grains, raw nuts and animal feeds are primary suspects.
