Diet Chart for Diarrhoea
A Person is considered to have diarrhoea if a person has loose bowel movement three or more times a day. Diarrhoea is a condition in which loose, watery stools (bowel movement) appear. Acute watery diarrhoea is a condition that lasts a short time. It is a common problem that usually lasts about one or two days. In a condition of the weakened immune system, chronic watery diarrhoea may represent a life-threatening illness. Diarrhoea is an important cause of under nutrition. This is because patients eat less during diarrhoea and their ability to absorb nutrients is reduced.
We recommend a low fibre and low fat diet which helps to restore the nutrients that have been lost due to diarrhoea. Avoid high fibre diet, spicy foods, milk, artificial sweeteners, and fried foods.
