Should you starve a stomach bug?
Online Answer
You shouldn't eat solid food at all while you're actively vomiting. Once you start to feel better and your nausea and vomiting stop, opt for foods that are easy to digest. That can help you avoid additional stomach irritation. A bland diet, such as the BRAT diet is a good one to follow while you recover.
