Conclusion
Other foods that are acceptable for stopping diarrhea include cooked eggs, soda crackers, decaffeinated tea, canned pears, bone broth, ice pops, pretzels, and saltines.
Most foods in the diarrhea diet are not exactly rich in nutrients and so long-term adherence to this kind of diet will result in some form of malnutrition or nutrient deficiency. The diarrhea diet must be changed as soon as the bowel recovers and diarrhea stops or reduces.
Fluid replacement is also very necessary in diarrhea to prevent dehydration and other associated health problems. If diarrhea refuses to get better despite proper management at home, it is advisable to see a doctor and get medical treatment.
Foods to avoid while having diarrhea include dairy products, fried or spicy meat, beans, corn, onion, garlic, dried fruit, coffee, carbonated drinks, alcohol, citrus fruits, potato chips, raw vegetables, hard candy, chewing gum, ice cream, and many others. Drugs with laxative effects should be avoided as well (see your doctor for advice on this).
