Bland food意思

"Bland food" is a term used to describe food that is mild in taste, not spicy, and often low in flavor. It is typically recommended for people who have sensitive stomachs, digestive issues, or certain medical conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), gastroenteritis, or after surgery when the digestive system needs a rest.

Bland foods are often high in starch and low in fiber, fat, and spices, making them easier to digest. Examples of bland foods include:

• White rice
• Boiled potatoes
• Plain pasta
• Toast
• Unsalted crackers
• Cooked carrots
• Canned or cooked without skin fruits and vegetables
• Skimmed or low-fat milk
• Eggs (cooked without added fats)
• Lean meats (cooked without added spices)

It's important to note that while bland food may be easier on the digestive system, it is often low in essential nutrients. Therefore, it should only be a temporary part of one's diet until the digestive issues improve, and a more balanced diet can be resumed.
