Symptom #10: Nutritional Problems
It’s quite common for people struggling with flu to develop certain nutritional imbalances. This is because they have a hard time keeping food down, often vomiting up what they do eat, and because their digestive tract is often too sensitive to properly absorb the nutrients from food.
A good way to work around this is to eat easy-to-digest food. Blend your meals and drink fruit smoothies to help prevent nutritional imbalances. Baby food is another alternative, although blending your own food is essentially making your own homemade baby food.
