Is cream of wheat good to eat when you have the flu?


because i don't have an appetite for soup.
and i've been throwing up.
do you think cream of wheat is ok?

I have always heard you should follow the "BRAT" diet until you start to feel better.
B= banana
R-Rice
A=Applesauce
T=Toast.

Cream of Wheat might be okay if you don't use much (if any) milk while making it. The milk can be hard for your stomach to digest.

Stay hydrated. Drink water, juice, weak tea, things like that.

Go slow and easy on the food. Source(s): just a mom.
my mom used to give it to me all the time when i was growing up so i dont see why you couldnt .hope you feel better soon
Yeah I would say give it a try, also toast is usually a good food item to settle your stomach, and easy to digest at that.
Stick to the B.R.A.T. (Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast) diet. It is the most highly recommended flu diet for children.
