Abstract: A surgically implanted gastrostomy tube through which the wearer receives part or all of his required nourishment is an unnatural, awkward, inconvenient and damage-vulnerable appendage added to the human body that is approximately 10" to 16" long and 1/4" in diameter, is made of surgical rubber tubing, and protrudes and dangles from the stomach area of the wearer. This invention, the gastrostomy tube protector and hider, is a belt or girdle worn by a person with a gastrostomy tube, that incorporates a pocket with a method of closure in which said gastrostomy tube can be stored and protected.
