The BRAT Diet

The day before we left Jamaica Korey started to feel sick with a headache and other symptoms. After we got back from our honeymoon this "thing" hibernated for a couple of days and returned full force Wednesday morning. By 4pm that day when his symptoms hadn't dissipated I took him to Primacare where he was told that he picked up "traveler's disease" while in Jamaica. It was probably obtained from drinking too many fruity drinks while he was there! It's basically bacteria that doesn't agree with you. The doctor prescribed him 3 different meds in addition to drinking numerous bottles of Propel. As far as what he could eat he said to stick to the BRAT diet.

Bananas
Rice
Applesauce
Toast

This is Korey's 3rd day on it and for whatever reason he is craving pizza. But funny enough that Primacare called and told him to stay on the diet. I wonder if plain pizza bread could count as toast??
