10 Foods That Are Easy To Digest by realestyomi(m): 12:51pm On Nov 07, 2017 |
Certain foods tend to be easier to digest than others, something most of us have experienced for ourselves. Although the body needs various nutrients, including fiber, protein, and fats, some foods containing these can contribute to stomach issues. Examples of this conundrum are foods that are high in good fiber, such as vegetables and wheat, but which may be harder to digest than simpler carbohydrates. Also, fatty foods and some animal-based proteins take time for the body to break down and can mean hard work for the digestive system. So, the foods that are good for someone are often the opposite of what they might enjoy eating when they have an acute illness. In this article, we take a look at 10 easy-to-digest foods that may help people who are experiencing or recovering from illness. Ten easy-to-digest foods The foods listed below are usually more easily digested than other, more complex foods that take larger amounts of the body’s energy to break down. 1. Toast toast is an easy to digest food Toast is an easy to digest food that may be a staple of a bland diet. Toast is often a staple of a bland diet. One reason for this is that it tends to be easy for the stomach and gut to digest. Toast can be helpful to decrease nausea and reduce heartburn. But not all toast is the same. Whole wheat bread is high in fiber and can be difficult for some people to digest. So, to avoid digestion problems, a person can stick to white toast and skip the butter when they have been unwell. If someone has an intolerance to wheat or gluten-containing foods, they can choose a wheat or gluten-free bread option. 2. White rice Rice is a grain that is a good energy source for the body’s needs. But not all grains are easy to digest. Those high in fiber, such as brown rice, can contribute to digestive issues, such as diarrhoea, bloating, and gas. When looking for grains that are easy on the digestive system, white rather than brown rice may be a better option that will also provide carbohydrates for energy. 3. Saltine crackers Saltine crackers are often suggested to treat nausea and indigestion, as well as morning sickness. Crackers contain carbohydrates for energy and are bland, which makes them digestion-friendly. 4. Bananas http://9jahealth.com.ng/10-foods-easy-digest/
