The timing is too perfect for this one - I caught a cold 2 days ago!
I guess it depends what kind of sickness I have. For colds I try to eat foods with lots of vitamins or that are easier to swallow. Clean eating - plenty of veg, some meat, soups are always good but unless I already have some in the house I don't bother cooking it as I'm usually too sore and tired! I follow a keto diet usually so where I used to have kiwi fruit and oranges that are high in vitamin C, I just have my green veggies or some blueberries. Also, the odd teaspoon of honey. :3
If I have an upset tummy I wait the 24-hours and start with a slice of low carb toast with Vegemite and then snack on dark chocolate and banana pieces and try to get my fluids back up.
These are the two main illnesses I guess and both are pretty simple to nurture steadily with good food and water/tea. On keto I don't think I've had a different kind of illness, but before keto if I could eat and was just bed ridden for some reason, I would get cravings for pizza or burgers. And always banana/chocolate. It's a good combo!
What are your top 3 "comfort" foods in general? I always like reading your answers on my blogs.
Thanks for another great topic @missy @rambo and hopefully neither of you are sick! It's summer in Aus and having a cold is just confusing.
