  Ginger tea
  Or you want something more soothing, fresh ginger juice with honey
  
  Other one is cardamon tea
  
  These are both good for balancing gastric fluids, dispelling wind from the stomach and regaining your appetite.
  
  The abovementioned also helps supress nausea from stomach flu

  It's a type of spice use in curries. The turkish always make cardamon tea
  Basically lipton tea infused with cadamon seeds
  Or if you don't mind the taste of the seeds you can just chew on them

  No dairy products (like milk, cheese etc), no fruits, no oily food (including deep fried). Try something plain like porridge with shredded chicken (preferably lean part of the chicken) and slowly introduce solid food as you get better.
  
  Vitagen or Yakult is good too as it puts back the good bacteria into your digestive system.
  
  Take care and hope you get better soon!

  Your stomach can only produce acid, if it can produce alkali, you have to start worrying.

  Avoid oily stuff and chilli/spices etc
  
  Avoid Dairy products
  
  Eat plain and simple. Drink lots of water
  
  Nothing will cure stomach flu ...it will clear by itself.

  Try Manuka Honey. It's got some special antibacterial properties. Friend of mine swears by it after it helped her gastric ulcers heal up real fast.. she took it concurrently with her meds. Before that, her ulcers were getting worse by the day despite her taking enuff meds to dope an elephant. Can get it at bugis B1, some OG outlets, Takashimaya. Hope it works for u ^^

  That only absorbs the toxins .Charcoal also constipates so you have temporary relief from diarrhea .

  I let it go away by itself.
  
  Although the shitting is horrible...
  The satisfaction of losing 4 kg for 2 days on the weighing scale makes me happy.
