  • Nutrition Tip

    Diarrhea may have several causes, including radiation, chemotherapy, infection, food sensitivities, and emotional upset. During the diarrhea, food passes quickly through the bowel before your body has a chance to absorb enough vitamins, minerals, and fluid.

    As a result, diarrhea causes an excess loss of fluids and nutrients, and can lead to dehydration.

    The rice and bananas in this recipe are two types of foods that are easily tolerated by the body and can therefore prevent diarrhea.
