What foods can be eaten during and after gastroenteritis?
It is best to avoid solid foods while the nausea and vomiting is present and rather just remain on fluids..Once this settles, a person can start with the BRAT diet. • Bananas, mashed • Rice, soft • Applesauce or grated apples • Toast, plain If these foods are well tolerated and there is no vomiting, a person can then progress to a normal diet of bland foods even if the diarrhea has not stopped. An oral rehydration solution should be continued throughout the episode as well as for a short time afterwards to replenish the body with the necessary electrolytes.
