For some of us, certain foods can be a challenge to digest, and they can cause discomfort for hours if we aren’t careful. They tend to be spicy and higher in fat and fiber. Sadly, chocolate, coffee, and alcohol can be problematic.
And if you make a bad dietary choice, it can take 24-72 hours to get the food out of your system.
Many foods are kinder to a tender stomach — bland foods like toast, white rice, sweet potatoes, bananas, applesauce, eggs, chicken, salmon tend to be gentle, according to Medical News Today.
Additional foods that are easy on the stomach, according to Healthline, include canned or cook fruits and vegetables, white bread products, dairy (unless lactose is intolerant). And for interest, sugar, honey, jelly, and marshmallows are acceptable. Nuts are also good for health and digestion, as long as you don’t overdo them.
Planning a diet for a sensitive stomach just takes a little thought. Sometimes eating more slowly and taking smaller portions is easier on digestion. Also, seeing a doctor is important, especially if you haven’t discussed this issue with your physician in the past or if you notice a change in your condition.
