You have probably heard “feed a cold, starve a fever” your entire life, but dietitians say that advice is not just outdated, it is wrong. New research shows your body does not need extremes when you are sick. It needs steady fuel, fluids, and the right kinds of foods even when your appetite disappears. From why skipping meals during a fever can backfire to the surprising foods that actually support recovery, experts break down what to eat, what to sip, and what to avoid so your immune system can do its job faster.
Healthy Fact of the Day: Drinking enough water throughout the day helps support brain function, memory, and concentration. Even mild dehydration can make it harder to focus and may contribute to headaches or fatigue. Staying hydrated supports clearer thinking and steadier energy levels all day long.
