Question: What kind of food is best to eat when you have a cold!?
I want to know what kind of food is best to eat when you're sick!. Beside chicken soup, and porridge!. Is there anything more full filling!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Eat anything you feel up to!. Mostly you want to avoid lots of milk or cold fluids because they increase phlegm production!.

When I am sick I looks for soft foods like shepherd's pie, mashed potatoes and gravy or macaroni and cheese!.

But when I am really sick I only want McDonald's Cheese Burgers!. That is a kind of sickness in itself!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Absolutly nothing, but I'd say NOT chinese food, but Id eat it I love chinese food, aww heck eat whatever you crave/want/have/are forced to swallow, cause who knows you might just die from this cold, and during your last moments on this strange, strange place, all youd be able to think of was what you wish you could've eaten just once more!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If it's just a cold, you can probably eat whatever you want!.

If you are sick with a fever then you should eat very light!.

They say Feed a cold and starve a fever!.

I know that if you are sick in your stomach with a fever, the more you eat the longer it will last!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you ever heard this advice for getting over a cold: If you do "x" you can get over it in about 7 days, but if you just let it be it'll take about a week!.

That being said, lots of sleep will help you get over anything, that's when your white blood cells flourish!.

There are some wives tails about anything spicy too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

fluids are important - water, popsicles, tea, juice, soup, etc!.
crackers or something if u think u might throw up!.
besides those, most anything should be okay if YOU feel like u can handle eating it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Vitamin C is good for you, so drink orange juice and eat some oranges for a snack!. You probably won't feel too hungry anywaysWww@FoodAQ@Com
