Ostomy-Friendly Japanese Meal Plans: A Week of Menus and Recipes

Ostomy-Friendly Japanese Meal Plans: A Week of Menus and Recipes

Quick answer: Most ostomates can enjoy a normal, balanced diet. Japanese home cooking — rice, miso soup, tofu, simmered fish — is naturally stoma-friendly; the keys are chewing well, introducing fibrous foods gradually, and staying hydrated (especially with an ileostomy).

Washoku is a gentle cuisine for ostomates: soft rice, miso soup, grilled or simmered fish and tofu are easy to digest. Foods that need extra chewing include konnyaku, mushrooms, seaweed and burdock root. Carbonated drinks and beer can increase gas for some people — test your own tolerance gradually.

Hydration for ileostomates

With an ileostomy, water and salts leave the body faster; oral rehydration solutions help in hot weather.
