Your stomach may not speak English, but it definitely has opinions—and if you’ve ever had it throw a full-blown protest at 2 a.m., you know it’s time to start feeding it what it really wants.
🍌 1. Bananas
Why: These mild-mannered fruits are easy on digestion, packed with pectin (a type of fiber that helps regulate the gut), and can soothe an upset stomach faster than you can say, “Was that burrito a bad idea?”
🥣 2. Oats
Why: Oats are like a gentle hug for your digestive system. They’re full of soluble fiber, which helps regulate bowel movements, keeps you full, and supports good gut bacteria. Bonus: they don’t argue with your intestines.
🥬 3. Ginger
Why: Ginger is basically your stomach’s therapist—calming nausea, reducing inflammation, and getting things moving in the right direction. (Looking at you, motion sickness and bloating.)
🥒 4. Fermented Foods (like yogurt, kefir, or sauerkraut)
Why: These foods are full of probiotics, the good bacteria your gut throws a party for. They help balance your microbiome, aid digestion, and can reduce symptoms like gas, bloating, and “What did I just eat?”
