7How Long Should You Stick to a Diarrhea Diet?
Even when the symptoms have improved, you should stick to a diarrhea diet for a couple of days. Switching too quickly back to the normal diet would worsen and prolong the symptoms. On the other hand, following this diet in the long term is not recommended because these foods and drinks may not provide sufficient nutrients for the body. When you feel better, make a gradual transition into a healthy diet. It may take around 2 weeks to go back to the normal foods completely.[7]
