kids with diarrohea and vomiting

When this happens good nutrition has to be ignored for a while. They need things with lots of calories and liquids so they will not dehydrate. Ginger ale, popsicles, jello (gelatin), and clear beef or chicken broth are all good for this and help calm their stomach. With the ginger ale, you may need to let it go flat first (get rid of the bubbles); but, ginger is very good for upset stomachs. If they can keep it down - cheese, especially cottage cheese, helps slow down or stop diarrhea and yoghurt is also good. Once they are starting to recover - soups (chicken and rice or chicken noodle), toast, and chicken and rice are all good foods for transitioning back to a normal healthy diet.
