Is there anything I can take or eat for diarrhea and indigestion?

I've been dealing with this all day and I am miserable! I am sooo hungry, but nothing sounds appealing and I am afraid it will make it worse. I've taken Pepto and Tums already. What else can I do?

Keeping a bland diet like bananas, rice, applesauce, toast, yogurt, and bone broth is helpful. I'm on day 7 of diarrhea from a stomach virus. I'm fine now once I stay on that diet, but the few times I've tried to eat normal again it's all come back.

I would not use Pepto or Tums. IMO, they don't do much except pollute your immune system.
