food for when you are ill
Right,
It appears that I’ve come down with something since early monday morning, and still at the tail end now (hoping the rest will get rid of the final symptoms).
Unfortunately, my kitchen hasn’t really been brim full of anything of late. A combination of being away at the weekends (my usual food shop time) and trying to use up some bits in the larder/be inventive, left me with a desolate fridge.
This in turn lead me to get takeout on Sunday night, and ill soon after (anyone see cause and affect); the effect was me not being so good!
So things to eat/drink when you are ill:
- Sips of water (don’t want to dehydrate)
- Nothing but sips water (for a while to try and cleanse the body and settle a stomach)
- Try some clear soups
- Light fruit juices (not too much, can have unpleasant effects)
- Some toast
- Fruit pieces (again not too much, more about flavour)
This also doubles up as my week 9 summary, as thats pretty much my intake this week!
Any other good advice, or things to consume? Let me know below.

My grandmother used to make me congee with dried scallops when I was ill – congee is rice porridge and is plain, and very comforting.

Try Cadbury Giant Buttons. That’s what I eat when I feel ill. They are on offer at Jupiter stores, just 99p for a big bag. They are a cure all remedy in my opinion.
