First step is to stop solid foods and give clear liquids say apple or other fruit juices. It is also necessary to give rehydration solutions to replace sodium in the body because diarrhea causes loss of fluid electrolytes from the body. Try any commercial rehydration product.
Solid foods may be restarted after 24 hours. Foods must be lactose free. Rice and Bananas are good choices and must be given in small quantities at shorter intervals along with continuation of rehydration.

If you've already GOT diarrhoea then you're best off just having fluids .. not milky ones but stuff like oral rehydration drinks, or dilute a 7 up and add a pinch of salt, mild black tea .. dryish biscuits (like glucose or marie .. arrowroot?) are okay.

The thing is that if your diarrhoea is .. er .. "going full blast" then the most important thing to do is to replace lost fluids or you'll get dehydrated and feel REALLY sick. If your insides are infected and the doc has got you on antibiotics then eat lightly (the foods most people have suggested here) to give your insides a chance to heal, eating a lot or eating hard-to-digest stuff will just tax your digestive system even more.

I had food poison two years ago, the doctor recommended consuming all liquid foods until I got better. Try eating jello and chicken soup (soup only). When you feel a little better, start introducing hard food back into your diet; like rice and potatoes. They're keep you full and isn't hard enough to cause more pain.

mix HOT chocolate powder drink with 1 table spoon of psylium husk (which you can get at health store/big supermarket) (psylium husk is tasteless but very effective).

should you have problem ingesting psylium husks buy commericial drinks that helps to keep you regular like Metamusils (which can come in orange flavour).

There are cereals that looks like rabbit pellets and taste like cardboards that are good. pour some honey and add some fruits.

Mandarins (the orange that you peel and is kidney shaped) and Bananas are pretty fiborous fruits

Try apples and bananas. They help "clog" things up:) Make sure to cut back on foods high in fiber.

bananas are the standard, but my doctor recommends macaroons (those are coconut cookies). we've done that for my son, and it works great. macaroons are typically available at any major grocery store year-round. good luck! don't forget to avaoid juice, and pedialyte really foes help.

Avoid lots of sugary foods and drinks. Give them more water and fiber.
