Diarrhea (Foods to be avoid)

As I promise, here is the list of foods/drinks I designed for readers to have a better understanding. I believed most of you might not have the clue of the proper foods to take during diarrhea period. I hope my list can help and useful for everyone.


Type of foods
Example foods
Effects
Sorbitol containing foods
           Apple, pear,  peaches, prune,
           sugar-free products (chewing gums & artificial sweeteners)
Laxative effect and undigested sorbitol cause fermentation of bacteria.
High acidic foods

           Unripe fruits,
           citrus fruits (lime, orange, mandarin, tangerine, grape fruit),
           vinegar,
           tomatoes.
Major distress in the gastrointestinal tract.
Insoluble fiber
           Raw vegetables –Lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli, onions, cabbage, peas, bran, carrots, beans, eggplant, mushrooms, spinach, sweet potatoes.
           Fruits - avocado, guava, orange, kiwi.
Do not dissolve in water and passes straight into the intestines causing gas and diarrhea.
Dairy products
           Butter,
           Milk,
           Ice cream or cheese.

Less amount enzyme lactase to digest lactose (milk sugar). Undigested lactose can cause gas, bloating.
Fatty foods

           Fried foods,
           Sesame seed oils

Speed up intestinal contractions. 

Caffeine
Coffee
Stimulate bowel movements
Alcohol
Beer, wine, whisky
Dehydration

以下是我所建议腹泻时应避免的食物:

冰淇淋或奶酪量少乳糖酶来消化乳糖(牛奶糖
未消化的乳糖可引起胀气
