Bollywood actress Amisha Patel was seriously suffering from gastro infection a few years ago. Ameesha was treated by the same doctors who treated Amitabh Bachchan and Saif Ali Khan. Only after this treatment the actress was advised to eat vegetarian food. After this disease she had become very weak. Due to this disease, her condition had deteriorated so much that she was on liquid diet for several days. Because during this time it was very difficult to digest food.
Gastroenteritis which is also known as stomach flu. A common condition that causes inflammation of the stomach and intestines. It is usually caused by viruses or bacteria. Symptoms of this disease are vomiting, diarrhea and stomach cramps. Gastroenteritis can be spread by coming in contact with an infected person’s vomit or feces or by consuming contaminated food or drinks. This is usually not a serious disease, but it can cause dehydration. This disease spreads quickly especially in children.
Here are some tips for treating gastroenteritis:-
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of clear fluids, such as water or broth, to replace what you lose due to vomiting and diarrhea. If you feel nauseous, try taking small sips frequently throughout the day. Children can become dehydrated quickly. Therefore you can give them a hydration solution like Pedialyte.
Eat light food: When you feel hungry, eat small amounts of foods that are easy to digest and contain electrolytes, such as crackers, rice, bananas or drink clear soup.
Relax: Try to rest as much as possible. Most people recover on their own in a few days. You should avoid going to the doctor unless you are worried or need advice.
