Recovering from Stomach Flu?

Lately a stomach flu has been spreading across

the entire nation, affecting seemingly everyone.
When struck by a stomach flu, it can be hard

to consume regular meals, as it’s tough to
know which foods are safe to eat. The lack of
nutrients can leave the stomach and body weak.

Therefore, it’s important to take a break from
regular foods to let your body heal. During the

peak of a stomach flu, the BRAT diet is highly
recommended, which includes Bananas, Rice,
Applesauce, and Toast. These foods are bland

but easy on the stomach, providing the necessary
nutrients for a speedy recovery.

Even after feeling better, be mindful of what you
consume. Your body still needs time to recover, so

it’s best not to indulge in all the foods you missed
out on. Instead, you can try some simple, light,

and healing recipes that support gut health and
ease you back into regular foods. These recipes will
provide all the necessary nutrients and prevent any

further stress on your digestive system.
