The BRAT diet stands for:

Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast
Bread, Rice, And Turkey
Butter, Rice, Asparagus, and Turkey
Beans, Rice, Apples, and Tea

The correct answer is: Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast

The BRAT diet is designed for individuals experiencing gastrointestinal distress, such as diarrhea or nausea. It consists of Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast, which are all bland, easy-to-digest foods that help to firm up stool and replenish lost nutrients. Bananas provide potassium, which can be depleted during bouts of diarrhea, while rice offers a low-fiber source of carbohydrates that helps bind stool. Applesauce is gentle on the stomach and can help manage digestive upset, and toast provides easily digestible carbohydrates that are low in fiber. This combination is gentle enough for an irritated digestive system while helping to prevent dehydration and provide some essential nutrients. The other options mention food combinations that do not align with the purpose of the BRAT diet and include items that can be harder to digest or are not part of this specific dietary regimen.
