            It has been a long established fact that if you are suffering from gastro problems that bananas are the ticket. When you eat ordinary foods, you actually feed the bacteria that is causing the trouble. However, if you eat only the BRAT diet, you flush those buggers out.

            B- bananas

            R- rice

            A- applesauce

            T- toast
