Saltines and poweraid!!!!
- Saltines made by the Premium brand which also is gluten free and poweraid works wonderfully. This is the only combination that works so good, it takes only a couple of days and you can start intoducing bannanas and other non irritating foods slowly : )

Read this - IMPORTANT
- Right now, I have diarrhea for 3 months already. It never went away because of the fact that I kept on making it worse. However, one day, I managed to get rid of the stupid virus. My technique: Eat bananas and drink plenty of water. Once you realize your stool is getting harder, KEEP eating bananas and drinking water. After a few days, try some plain rice. NOT FRIED RICE, BROWN RICE, just PLAIN RICE! If your stool becomes liquid again due to eating rice, THEN STOP and continue to eat Banana. You may eat crackers, but don't forget to eat bananas as well! AND LOTS OF WATER. NO GATORADE/POWERWADE OR ANY TYPE OF DRINK UNLESS RECOMMENDED BY DOCTOR. Even though you think your diarrhea is gone, continue to eat bananas, rice, crackers, and drink tons of water until at least a month pass. NEXT TIME, beware what you eat!

IBS -If you have diarrhea
- I usually get diarrhea after eating veggie soup, even though I eat crackers with it. It may be the corn in the soup or something else but I run to the bathroom several times and decide to take a half of Imodium tablet. It works and if the half doesn't help I take another half and my tummy settles down and the diarrhea stops. Eating baked potatoes without butter helps. I eat plain white breads also. I don't limit my eating what I want but I am careful how I eat and how much. I stop using milk and went to Silk and that eliminates the gas. I love cereals and I use the Silk instead of Milk.

- I noticed that during the act itself, I just drink water then I can graduate to dry toast and perhaps crackers.

Heres how to handle this!
- I'm on my fourth day. Starting to get scary. I have no idea if I have food poisoning or what? Bananas are #1. Every time I eat one it calms my stomach. Eat about 5 a day. No gatorade, drink water, dry toast - no butter, applesauce - no cinnamon. Tough it out, you can eat all the foods you want in a couple days.

Diarrhea
- If you have this, try brat food like: Bananas rice, toast/tea etc. - hope this will work...AVOID: WHEAT CONTAINING PRODUCTS, APPLES, PEARS, PEACHES,POTATOES, CORN, OATMEAL,WHEAY BRAN, PRUNES AND DATES, ALSO DAIRY FOODS.

Hmm..
- It depends. For most people the BRAT (bananas, rice, applesauce, tea/toast) diet works, but not for everyone. And some people find cola helps whereas other people think it makes it worse.

Aw god:(
- don't eat much, just eat some dry white toast, rice or pasta, and drink plenty of water. Don't try and hold it in that makes it a lot worse!! Because then all you've been holding just comes out at once, maybe before you get to the toilet. If your stomach is sore, a warm wheat bag or hot water bottle helps.

Oogala
- Boil rice and drink the water as well as eating the rice with live yoghourt and white bread, toasted, and banana.

Be careful w probiotics
- They tend to make my diarrhea worse, if anything, and there is recent research showing improvement in many IBS cases with an *antibiotic.*

Try this
- Rice is very good. Soup with potatoes and crackers works well. I have had diarrhea for days and also took lactobacillus which helps restore the intestine lining.

The Shits
- I don't know if I have food poisoning or what, but I have been stuck in bed & on the toilet. I tried a little pepto although I know you shouldn't "stop" diarrhea, but I needed something. I haven't been able to eat or drink anything. I'm trying to make rice water and then I'll try the BRAT diet. Hopefully it helps.

rearea
- The only thing I can eat is baked potato or broth. Stomach bloated and can't keep anything in. Have been in remission for 5 yrs don't miss this. Aloe vera soothes where it hurts.
