Prevention, Screening And Diagnosis
- Stay Well Hydrated
Drink plenty of fluids such as water, clear soups, coconut water, and electrolyte solutions to prevent dehydration. - Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS)
ORS helps replace lost fluids and essential salts during diarrhoea and vomiting. - Soft, Bland Foods
Easily digestible foods like rice, bananas, boiled potatoes, applesauce, and toast help soothe the stomach. - Small, Frequent Meals
Eating smaller portions throughout the day supports digestion and reduces stomach strain. - Fatty & Spicy Foods
These can irritate the stomach lining and increase discomfort. - Safe Drinking Water
Use boiled or filtered water to avoid further infection during recovery.
