What do you eat when you are sick (like sinus/mucus/dizziness/headaches)? Fruits and vegies don't always seem appealing and I am way too dizzy to dehydrate and make something. Ive been eating SAD food because of the mushiness of it helps when swallowing. Mainly potatoes.

Any easy recipes that would be easy to swallow (and/or mushy) and would help to get better? I know this might seem silly but the only thing I can think of is bananas and I am tired of just plain bananas. Help? :confused:

I find that simple green smoothies always make me feel better.

Bananas, spinach & strawberries. I know you said you were sick of bananas but they really make a smoothie tasty...IMHO...

Hope you feel better.

It's interesting that we are the only animal that feels we "should" eat when we are detoxing. My suggestion ~ warm water with lemon and agave or honey. If you are really hungry, I'd go with green smoothies as Lana has suggested.

Other than that, help your system eliminate by movement.

(smile). Actually I have been sick with this for 2 months now. It was an inner/outer ear infections and the tubes in my ears were swollen. At first I thought it was detox but my ears still hurt badly. Hmm...I always forget about warm water and lemon. That does help. Thanks!

I am going to bring my blender to work tomorrow and have the girls I nanny for help make smoothies with me. I just don't want to eat bananas plain anymore. Thanks!
