What is good to eat when you have the flu??


My mother said I have the "flu" so i have dieria, and I was pukeing, but i have stopped, but what is GOOD and what is BAD to eat when I have these symptoms?


Thanks!

Is scrambbled eggs okay?

chicken soup and crackers jello.

Chicken noodle soup, if ya can't eat or it has a hard time staying down, ensure or sports drinks to replentish electrolites.

NOT chocolate..haha Easter.
Have some hot water with honey or tea -that will settle your stomach and sooth your throat.
Also if you're hungry have some chicken broth..When I'm sick I always have something spicy because it kills the germs in my body and actually makes me fell better.

Soft foods like applesauce and soups like chicken soup. The website below perfectly answers your question.

Soup soup a tasty soup soup

nothing solid ok soup and stuff i ate mashed potatoes and it stayed down good luck

Good to eat: plain white rice, crackers, clear chicken broth, white soda, juice, jello
Bad to eat: fatty foods, heavy foods, dairy products

I'm not so sure what to eat, but I know you have to drink Gatorade or some other Power Drink to replenish your lost fluids because you puked.

Drink lots of water, stay away from soda. Have some soup with broth. You need to stay hydrated. When the fever is gone you won't throw up anymore.

Hope you feel better soon.

Start by drinking sips of Gatorade or Pedialyte. These will help restore your electrolyte balance, and will keep you from becoming dehydrated. When you are re-hydrated, you will be able to keep food down better. Start with easy to digest food. Bananas, saltine crackers,dry toast, tea, apple juice, ginger ale, Popsicles, After a while you can have simple cereal, like Rice Crispies, or cheerios with non fat milk. If you can handle those foods, try some chicken noodle soup.Avoid fatty food, don't eat fried foods, wait a little while before trying to eat a whole meal, start with small meals more frequent than 3 times a day. and avoid over-eating, Don't force yourself to eat, take it slow. Usually after 72 hours your will lessen and you will begin to feel better. It is important that during the vomiting and diarrhea phase that you take some Gatorade or pedialyte to avoid the dehydration,. Dehydration makes it harder to get better quickly and can be dangerous. If your symptoms go on for more than 3 days, or if you cannot keep any liquid down, see your doctor.. If your diarrhea or vomit has blood in it, see your doctor. To avoid getting sick like this and to avoid spreading it, always wash you hands before eating and after using the bathroom.Take care!

Eggs are definitely not okay. Try dry toast, orange juice, popcials, soda crackers...
