Avoid things like dairy products (especially milk). Many people are lactose intolerant. Others are not even aware that milk may irritate their stomach.
Coffee falls into the soft drink or soda category as well. It can contain caffeine. So it is best to avoid coffee until you have fully recovered.
You definitely want to stay away from alcohol. This is of course unless you are hungover and are seeking a Bloody Mary. Alcohol is a major irritant of the stomach.
