Personal review of eating a banana during gastroenteritis

Is it okay to eat bananas when you have enteritis? I tried eating them myself haha

 

Before eating.. Ta-da

 

 

While struggling with a severe stomach flu, I was looking for something simple to eat.
The first thing that naturally came to mind was a banana.
After searching, I found that opinions are somewhat divided, but many people say that having one or two is okay.

 

So, I really carefully cut one into small pieces and ate it slowly.

To get to the point... I didn't feel bad after eating a banana with enteritis. 😀😀😀

Actually, I felt a slight coating on my stomach, and I also felt a sense of comfort inside.

 

Is a banana safe for an enteritis diet?

 

I found out that bananas are one of the foods in the BRAT diet (Banana, Rice, Apple sauce, Toast).
This diet is known to be gentle on the stomach for patients with enteritis.
Among them, bananas contain soluble fiber, which is said to help alleviate loose stools.

 

However, I also checked with the doctor before eating.
I asked, "How many bananas are okay to eat with enteritis?"
According to the doctor, having about one to two a day is not a problem.

However, since it can vary depending on the stomach, it is better to avoid it if diarrhea symptoms are severe.

 

Is banana juice okay for enteritis?

 

I really thought about this, but when I was sick like me, banana juice for enteritis wasn't really my thing.
If you grind and eat it, absorption will be faster, but dietary fiber acts more quickly.
I heard that it might actually make your stomach more uncomfortable.
Especially mixing with milk or yogurt is really ❌.

Absolutely not. Haha
I just ate it like scooping a ripe banana with a spoon.

 

For those who have experienced enteritis, how did you find bananas????
