Can I eat corn if I have diarrhea?

When you have diarrhea, you must pay attention to the doctor's treatment advice and eat a reasonable and healthy diet. Generally speaking, you can eat corn when you have diarrhea, because corn is a coarse grain and does not affect the condition of diarrhea. But you must pay attention to avoid irritating or greasy foods.

1. Irritating foods: Hot peppers, mustard, pepper, garlic and other highly irritating foods can irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa, easily causing diarrhea or gastrointestinal inflammation, and are not conducive to the recovery of gastrointestinal function.

2. Too greasy food: Too greasy food will increase the burden on the stomach and cause diarrhea due to indigestion, which is typical fatty diarrhea. Therefore, people with diarrhea should not eat greasy food, as this will only aggravate the diarrhea.

3. Too cold food: Cold drinks, cold dishes and other too cold things will stimulate the intestines, speed up intestinal peristalsis and make diarrhea more serious.

4. Foods that have laxative and intestinal moisturizing effects: Foods that have laxative and intestinal moisturizing effects, such as peaches, bananas, honey, etc., will aggravate the condition after consumption.

5. Eggs: Eggs are high-protein foods and are difficult to digest. Eating eggs not only fails to nourish the body, but instead aggravates the condition.

6. Garlic: Although garlic has a bactericidal effect, it also has a strong irritating effect and can easily aggravate diarrhea.
