Diarrhea is far from pleasant, but almost everyone knows from their own experience what is behind this name. Summer is the time of year when our gastrointestinal tract is particularly susceptible to various tests. In summer we often drink water, and, unfortunately, not always from its purest sources, we often buy draft kvass or beer for bottling on the street. And when we go to the park or to the market, we often find a way to have a snack - having bought a delicious pie with meat or khachapuri, we, of course, will not be able to find out how long this product was in the bag or on the counter after cooking, and we won’t know what time the qualities were the components from which the product we had eaten was prepared. And at a warm temperature, bacteria multiply very quickly, and often reach such concentrations that for safe use, a product, especially prepared from meat, requires heat treatment. Or you just need to throw it away. It is proved that if you open a bottle with a mineral water at a typical room temperature and leave it open for an hour, it will become unusable - the number of bacteria, including harmful ones, will increase several times in a short time and will significantly exceed the permissible norm. When visiting establishments where you can have a bite to eat and drink, demand that the mineral water be opened with you - so you will insure yourself against a possible disease.
But what if, after all, your intestinal tract rebelled due to the abundance of bacteria in the food, accelerating the digestive process? It is no secret that a diarrhea diet can cause an accelerated cure for diarrhea. But some types of food can, on the contrary, increase diarrhea. We will analyze what the diet with diarrhea represents, which will help to recover faster. You will have to drink a lot of natural antiseptics. Carefully strain the compotes and other decoctions to remove all particles of boiled fruit or berries from them. Nutrition for diarrhea should exclude fiber in any form, since fiber during diarrhea causes irritation of all intestinal mucous membranes, which only enhances the unpleasant process. That is, fruits and vegetables are best eliminated. Good antiseptics will be lemon juice or red wine, which with diarrhea should be added to tea for a tablespoon the first two days. Tea is better not to sweeten and strain well. It is worth using rice broths, as well as jelly from berries - blackcurrant, lingonberry, as well as from pomegranate juice and rosehip. They are better to take the entire period of the disease. When the acute phase of diarrhea has passed, include rice porridge boiled in water in the diet. To prepare porridge, use high-quality rice, in addition, it should be washed well. The first intake should be very small - eat a teaspoon of rice. Then boil a pound of rice, putting on low heat, stirring it for 40 minutes. Eat this porridge in one go.
For diarrhea, use a potion such as a decoction of pears and oatmeal. Place half a glass of drying pears and three tablespoons of cereal in a volume of water corresponding to two glasses. Boil, leave for an hour, strain. When preparing a decoction, do not forget that with diarrhea, fiber only strengthens the symptoms, so you need to strain it carefully, completely removing the boiled dryer and its particles. Take half a glass twice a day. Do not add sugar.
The diet should include oatmeal, which can be eaten from the second or third day after the symptoms of diarrhea began to subside. Add a small piece of butter to it. After that, gradually add fermented milk products to the diet that will normalize the intestinal flora.
Diet with diarrhea suggests, of course, the presence of antiseptics. Natural antiseptics may be cranberry or lingonberry juice. Put two tablespoons of cranberry leaves and berries in a saucepan, pouring it in hot water with a volume of about two glasses, keep it on low heat for about ten minutes, then strain the chilled infusion. Four times a day, take one hundred ml of this decoction. Or three times a day, take strained gooseberry juice half an hour before eating, which can stop chronic diarrhea.
A special, “strengthening” diet for diarrhea will help you to feel healthy again.
