The best thing to keep your immune system up is fruit and protein. If you are ok with taking vitamis and supplements i suggest you take Vitamin C, Zinc, and B1.

Lots of liquids like powerade,gatorade, clear sodas to keep you hydrated. Lots of vitamin C to boost your immune system juices like orange and cranberry are the best for that even grape juice is ok. Soups are good as well, chicken noodle or chicken rice are good. If your stomach can handle more flavorful soups you can try egg drop, wonton, vegetable soup, heartier chicken soups etc. Saltine/Soda crackers to put something a little more solid in you maybe some dry toast. Hope you feel better!! Happy Holidays.

If you haven't lost your appetite, homemade chicken or turkey broth with small pasta or rice and a squirt of juice from a real lemon, will go down nice and feel good, as well as help the antibiotics do their stuff. Hot tea with honey and also with lemon is great in the morning. You may also try baked white fish with plain white rice as a good meal to give you the energy during the day.

Drink TONS of fluids, especially fruit juice. Do not spend any moment throughout the day without a drink next to you.
Also eat fruits, veggies, and whole grains. If you are female? you will also want to eat yogurt to help the good bacteria in your body that the antibiotics are killing off.

They say feed a fever and starve a cold. If the doctor told you to eat, Chicken Soup is the best. Then again, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, so try one for desert.
Actually, the best think you can do is drink plenty of liquids and the best liquid to drink is unchlorinated water.
Be skeptical of those who will tell you to drink fruit juice, you can overdose on vitamin C

Raw foods like fruits, vegetables and a lot of water!! They say fasting is the best way to heal quick!! Try the "Master Cleanser" by Stanley Burroughs it is great. Good luck in life, love and health and get well soon!!
