What do YOU eat when you are sick (bad cold/flu-ish)?
Man, Ive been hit pretty bad the last few days with a nasty sore throat,drip,body aches,etc. I havent really even gotten a cold in years-which I attribute to my diet,exercise, and cleanliness. But I guess sometimes its unavoidable. I am mostly a homebody,but have gone out somewhere every night since New Year's Eve, so I was asking for it.
So far all I have been consuming is CHunky soups,Gatorade, and Alka Seltzer Cold. On the upside, I'm sure I'm losing weight. Downside-some will be lean mass.
Since Im not used to ever feeling ill, I was wondering what any of you do or might recommend eating during this time. I'm trying to eat light and stuff without cookign and prep time. Besides stuff like Chicken Soup, what things are suposed to be good? Also, keep in mind Im not sick to my stomach at all-just throat,lungs,ache type stuff.
