| The BRAT Diet | |
| This diet is a recommended way to eat during and after episodes of diarrhea or gastrointestinal upsets. It provides easy digestion and firms the stool. | |
| B | Bananas, peel and eat raw |
| R | Rice, white cooked |
| A | Applesauce, smooth non-chunky style |
| T | Toast, white, unbuttered |
| Beverages should be clear liquids ( Sprite, 7-Up, Tea, Ginger Ale ). NO DAIRY PRODUCTS. Follow this diet until diarrhea subsides for 24 hours. You may then gradually add soft, bland foods ( Scrambled eggs, noodles, mashed potatoes ) as tolerated. | |
