Healing Foods After Abdominal Surgery

Soft, Easily Digestible Foods

Start with soft foods like mashed potatoes, oatmeal, and applesauce. These are gentle on the stomach and reduce strain.

Lean Proteins for Healing

Skinless chicken, eggs, tofu, and fish help rebuild tissues, support immune health, and speed up wound healing post-surgery.

Cooked Vegetables

Steamed carrots, spinach, and zucchini provide essential vitamins without irritating the digestive tract like raw veggies might during early recovery.

Bananas, melons, and canned peaches are easy to digest and provide energy without stressing your gut or causing bloating.

Low-Fiber Fruits

Probiotic-Rich Foods

Yogurt, kefir, and soft paneer with live cultures support gut health and prevent constipation or infection after antibiotics.

Skip spicy, fried, gassy, or high-fiber foods early on. Avoid alcohol and caffeine until your doctor gives the green light.
