Here are some things you MUST eat to make you feel better.
________________
Things you should eat / drink often.
Soy - whether it be soy milk, tofu, or miso...soy is an "Anti-Inflammatory" and will help clear mucus and boost your immunity.
Leeks / Onions / Garlic - anything in the Alliaceae family, these potent veggies are packed full of vitamins and natural antioxidants to aid in a flu.
Chicken Soup - Somehow the protein and fat in chicken responds nicely to replacing the lipids that protect damaged blood cells.
Meat - Eat LOTS of MEAT! Protein aids in giving you strength and energy to recover.
Prune Juice - Drink every mourning to flush your system so you can start fresh each morning to absorb 'clean' nutrients. Allot of the cold viruses are flushed out from peristalsis.

Flu Fighting Chili
Eating chili can help prevent colds and the flu if you make it with the right ingredients Eating chili is a delicious way to warm up after a winter run -- and it can also help prevent colds and the flu if you make it with the right ingredients. The following recipe, courtesy of Wake Forest University's Mara Vitolins, contains an arsenal of immunity-boosters.All of the vegetables (including the onions and garlic) offer immunity-boosting phytochemicals, but the tomatoes are particularly powerful. In addition to the phytochemical lycopene, tomatoes contain potassium and vitamins A and C. The tofu and beans supply an immunity-boosting isoflavone called daidzein, and the hot sauce will open up your nasal passages if you're congested.
1 whole onion, chopped
1 whole sweet green pepper chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon soybean or olive oil
1 16-oz package extra-firm tofu, drained and crumbled
1 1/2 cans (19 ounces) kidney, pinto, or white beans
1 28-oz can stewed tomatoes
3 medium carrots, sliced
2 tablespoons mild chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon hot sauce
add salt and pepper to taste
Sauté the onion, pepper and garlic in the oil over medium heat. Add the tofu and sauté until crisp and lightly browned (about 10 minutes). Add the beans, stewed tomatoes, carrots, chili powder, cumin, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 50 to 60 minutes

Whoa....
that was a lot to read.
NOW! I hate being sick. One time, i got broncculitus (spelled wrong :c) and i had asthma...... soo... the broncculitus went down into my lungs i had a 2 week coughin fit. I couldn't sleep because i was too busy coughing. And when i did fall asleep, my family would have to stay awake because i would wake them up.
It got to the point where my family got ear plugs and i had to take this HARD CORE sleeping syrup. Like the syrup knock me out with in the 10 mins i took it.

it was a hard time :c

i hate being sick, but honestly, i dont mind. sure i felt like a dying camel when i got the flu, but i got out of school for a few days and spent my time doing more productive things, like drawing and writing.

i agree with you on the football topic....that's like torture to me.

you got better right? i would assume that's why you've typed this.
