Dietary principles for colds in winter
After a cold, people often lose their appetite, especially when they have a fever. Modern medicine believes that various digestive enzymes are destroyed or have low activity when fever occurs, resulting in patients not wanting to eat.
If you simply eat more, you will often have indigestion such as abdominal distension, which will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, which is not conducive to the body's concentration to resist external evils, and may also delay the recovery of colds and even aggravate the condition. Therefore, it is better for cold patients to eat less.
People with colds advocate eating light and digestible foods, such as rice porridge and noodles, and avoiding fried and greasy foods. Some people even put forward "fasting therapy", that is, stop eating after a cold and only drink soup, which sometimes gets unexpected results.
Of course, this method is not suitable for everyone, and patients with strong physique and mild cold can try it. Please don't forget to have enough energy reserves, otherwise it will be counterproductive.
Pay attention to balanced nutrition and easy digestion when catching a cold. Protein food such as meat and eggs should not be too much; Eat less greasy food, such as fried and fried food, but mainly carbohydrate food, drink some porridge, eat more vegetables and fruits, and take as many vitamins and minerals as possible to improve your immunity.
