Stomach virus
Hi Woekwise, when we have an upset stomach especially when we get the runs our bodies need electrolytes which are base sugars and salts and one thing that I find very good is to make a cup of clear soup with low salt bouillon as this helps replace the salts we've lost.
Things to avoid are dairy coffee and alcohol which are known to aggravate an upset stomach, when bland foods like crackers or toast is also good.
As for protecting others good hygiene using an anti bacterial hand wash should help.
And I hope that you feel better soon.
Thank you been like this since Thursday getting me down now x

Gut health is something to take seriously. How do you know it is a virus? Antibiotics destroy almost everything in your insides, good and bad so unless absolutely necessary I would avoid that as a solution. I would increase your intake of darg leafy greens since they are full of good nutrition. Also cruciferous vegetables should be on your plate at every meal. If you can eat them raw all the better, since that will get the saliva going in your mouth to generate lots of enzymes to help ease the digestive process.
