What to eat and what to avoid for diarrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you have food: allergies - avoid those foods. Do you already think you have a GI bug? If yes - Start w clear liquid like water, slightly flattened soda that is clear, or sports hydration drinks. Sip, sip, sip. Work up to solids w bland foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, toast, gelatin, or chicken. Avoid alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, dairy & high fat foods. Rest. Take care.
