Can people with gastroenteritis eat durian?

Patient's question:

I recently had some discomfort in my stomach. Yesterday, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with gastroenteritis. I usually hate eating durian and am worried that eating it might worsen my condition. I would like to ask, can people with gastroenteritis eat durian?

Doctor's answer:

Gastroenteritis can eat durian. Durian is slightly hot in nature, and patients with enteritis can eat it. Durian is rich in nutrition, but it should not be eaten in large quantities at once because your intestines cannot be fully digested. Excessive consumption may cause stomach problems. It is recommended to take some anti-inflammatory medication and probiotics for symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to a light and easily digestible diet, avoid extremely cold foods that may affect your health, and take care to prevent abdominal cold to avoid catching a cold.
