Diarrhea help

Well, I had the luck of getting some diarrhea over the Thanksgiving weekend. Not so bad, just a 24 hours thing. The good thing is now I can write this blog. ;)

Things to stay away from when you have diarrhea.
  • High fiber food
  • Sweets
  • Tea
  • Alcohol
  • Fried foods
  • Greasy foods
  • Spicy foods

Things you should eat (assuming you can eat anything).

  • Potassium Rich foods such as bananas, potatoes, peach/apricot nectars, oranges
  • Low fiber foods such as white bread, white rice, noodles, creamed cereals, canned or cooked fruits without the skins, cottage cheese, yogurt, eggs, mash or backed potatoes, pureed vegetables, chicken, fish
  • Lots of room temperature liquids such as apple juice, water, clear brother, ginger ale, sports drinks such as Gatorade.
