Hydration is essential. After vomiting, your body has lost water and electrolytes. To rehydrate effectively:
- Drink water in small sips, regularly, rather than in large amounts all at once
- Choose water at room temperature or slightly cool
- Oral rehydration solutions (available at pharmacies) can be helpful in cases of repeated vomiting
- Warm herbal teas, clear broth, or rice water are also good options
Eat foods that are easy on your stomach:
- Eat smaller, more frequent meals: eat small portions 5 to 6 times a day instead of 3 large meals
- Choose easily digestible foods: plain white rice, very ripe bananas, toast without butter, applesauce, steamed potatoes
- Avoid fatty foods (fried foods, sauces), spicy foods, very sweet foods, or foods that are hard to digest at all costs
- Eat slowly, chewing thoroughly
Giving your digestive system a rest is your best ally. After an episode of vomiting, wait 1 to 2 hours before gradually reintroducing food. Start with clear liquids, then move on to semi-solid foods, before returning to a normal diet.
