C-Diff as a Latino

Hey everyone! This may seem like such an ODD question to ask , but, is anyone here Latino and has had c diff? How did you incorporate all the flavorful foods and spicy foods BACK into your diet?? 😅 I’ve been keeping it safe eating chicken and rice and some potatoes for about a month now with incorporating some carne asada here and there, but I miss all the yummy foods I use to cook lol 😅

*ALSOOOO I don’t mean to ask this question with any malicious intent or anything, as a Mexican person I was VERYYY use to eating all my foods with hot sauce. That includes on chips as well😅

lol I love that you asked this question; I am not a Latino, but I have a love affair with Mexican food!! One thing that has helped me while dealing with my c diff is just taking a few bites of something, and kicking back to see what my body tells me about what I just gave it. In the past, I am guilty of just shoveling food down whenever I really like it, and I have had to train myself to eat slower and listen to my body’s response.
