When it comes to dealing with nausea, one of the first pieces of advice most individuals will give is to follow the BRAT diet. BRAT stands for the four foods in the diet: bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. All four of these foods are low in fiber and are bland, which make them easy for the body to digest. They also help replace any nutrients individuals may have lost when vomiting. For instance, bananas can restore potassium within the body. Bland foods like the ones in the BRAT diet also help ease an individual's body back into eating solid food with minimal chances of reacting. Of course, though these make up the majority of a beneficial diet when experiencing nausea, there are more options than just eating bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast all day.
