Gastroenteritis: Most important is to keep hydrated and replace electrolytes if you have diarrhea and/ or vomiting. When you are able to keep fluids down, eat foods that are easy to digest, not greasy or fried , bananas, apples, toast, carrots , "plug you up" probiotics will help you replenish your gut flora.

Gastroenteritis: 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.
