According to the specialist, during illness people, as a rule, have a decreased appetite, so there is no need to “forcibly load” the gastrointestinal tract.

As the doctor explained, in this way the body saves energy, so food should be easily digestible.

“Heavy, fatty, meat dishes, smoked meats, marinades, pickled vegetables - none of this is needed.

There should be a light diet: dairy dishes, eggs, poultry, preferably in the form of minced meat, so that it is easy to digest.

You can eat such dishes.

Portions should be small and food varied.

But you should drink a lot, because drinking plenty of water is the key to quickly removing pathogens, the toxins they produce, and harmful substances from the body,” Chernyshova said.

She also recommended drinking as much plain warm water as possible.

“You can add lemon, cranberry, raspberry or linden blossom infusion.

There is no need to make the drink sweet, but it is better not to add sugar at all,” the doctor concluded.

Earlier, analysts conducted a survey and found out what the food of the future will be, according to Russians.
