I’m wondering if there are any foods that can help with nausea beyond the usual options like toast, rice, and crackers.

Just to add a bit more context—I’m dealing with nausea related to long-term medication, so I need to keep cooking and eating. I’ve been enjoying ginger tea and broth, but I’m on the lookout for more substantial recipes. I really appreciate any suggestions!

Final Note: I’ve been feeling quite emotional lately, and all the thoughtful responses have truly touched me. Thank you all so much!

    I’m really glad to hear that the responses have been helpful to you! For nausea relief, there are definitely more options out there. Here are a few recipe ideas that can provide nourishment while being gentle on your stomach:

    1. Smoothies: Try blending bananas, yogurt, and a little spinach with ginger or mint. The banana is easy to digest, and the yogurt can help with probiotics. If you can handle it, adding a scoop of protein powder can also boost the nutrition.

    2. Oatmeal: Cook oats with water or a mild broth instead of milk. You can add a bit of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon for flavor, and some slices of banana for extra nutrients.

    3. Mashed Potatoes: Make creamy mashed potatoes using a milk alternative if dairy bothers you. You can also add some cooked carrots or sweet potatoes for added flavor and nutrition.

    4. Vegetable Soups: A puree of mild vegetables, like squash or carrots with a bit of ginger, can be soothing. Blend them smooth to avoid any chunky texture that might be off-putting.

    5. Steamed Veggies: Lightly steamed zucchini, carrots, or spinach can be gentle on your stomach. Try drizzling a little olive oil and lemon juice on them for taste.

    6. Rice with Protein: Consider a mild fried rice with scrambled eggs and gentle vegetables like peas or carrots. Use low-sodium soy sauce or tamari for flavor without overwhelming your stomach.

    7. Banana Bread or Muffins: If you enjoy baking, you could make banana bread using ripe bananas, which can be easy on the stomach. You can reduce sugar or use an alternative if that’s a concern.

    8. Honey & Lemon Water: Sipping on warm water with honey and lemon can settle your stomach, and it’s refreshing!

    Remember to listen to your body and adjust based on what feels right for you. Wishing you comfort and good health as you navigate this! 💕
