What helps you feel better when you get sick?

April 14, 2026 7:22am CST
Personally, whenever I was sick in the past with a flu or the cold, I’d sleep more and take multiple vitamins on a daily basis. Eating more fruits and vegetables & drinking ginger ale has also helped me get well again. So, what are some of your favorite methods that help you feel better when you’re sick?

That's good. If you get better on your own, than count yourself lucky.

@augusta123 Sorry, I forgot I would like her to give me warm water mixed with mustard powder. Mustard is the best antibiotic. Simple warm water also works wonders. You can try it and see

When I'm sick, I do pretty much the same things you do. I get as much rest/sleep as I can. I will get some fruits. I will also get some orange juice and drink some throughout the day. That helps me too.

@augusta123 I do have some advil or tylenol handy if I feel that I need it.

A bowl of warm soup or broth like chicken soup is very comforting and soothing for me whenever I'm sick.
