Are scrambled eggs good after vomiting?
My stomach feels very upset after throwing up a little while ago. Are scrambled eggs a good food to eat right now, or should I stick to something lighter?

Please be careful. I once ignored constant vomiting and tried eating heavy foods, which made it much worse and got me severely dehydrated. If you are throwing up continuously, don't worry about food right now and go see a doctor immediately.
I can only tell you what works for me, but eating eggs right after vomiting usually makes my stomach feel very heavy and nauseous again. I usually stick to plain rice water or coconut water first.
Yes, dear. Once your stomach has settled for a few hours, scrambled eggs are fine because they are soft and have protein. Just cook them plain without butter, cheese, or spices.
Hey, take it easy. Your stomach lining is very sensitive right now. It is better to avoid eggs for a few hours and stick to simple toast or plain khichdi. Let your gut recover first.
At my age, even looking at scrambled eggs after throwing up makes my stomach rumble in fear! Keep the eggs aside for a day and stick to simple coconut water, your body will thank you.
Ho na, eggs can sometimes have a strong smell that triggers more nausea after vomiting. It is much safer to eat plain curd rice or banana right now.
Even if you are worried about missing your protein goals today, don't force eggs if you just vomited. Focus entirely on hydration right now with ORS, and get back to your normal diet tomorrow.
When I had a stomach infection, eating eggs made my condition much worse and I had to be hospitalized for IV fluids. Please consult a doctor before eating solid foods if your vomiting is severe.
A cup of ginger tea or warm water with lemon is much better to settle your stomach first. If you still feel weak or have a fever with vomiting, please see a doctor immediately.
I am feeling very weak after throwing up this morning and wanted to eat something light. Should I cook the scrambled eggs completely dry without any oil at all?
Eggs are usually safe, but after vomiting, your digestion is very slow. I would suggest holding off on fats and eating something dry like a toast first. Take care of yourself.
If the vomiting is due to food poisoning, eggs might irritate your system further. If it continues, please visit a clinic to get proper anti-vomiting medication instead of trying home remedies.
