I'm really worried about my mom. She's dealing with both dengue and typhoid right now, and I'm not sure what kind of diet would be best for her. The big issue is that nothing seems to be digesting properly - even water passes through her really quickly, like within 15 minutes. Is there something specific I should be feeding her to help with this?

I've developed this habit of eating raw rice every day, even in the middle of the night sometimes. It's like I can't control it. Recently, I've been getting stomach aches and I'm noticing a lot of hair loss. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything I can do to stop these symptoms or this craving?
