Best Answer

Some specific foods are recommended for particular health problems, but generally speaking, when suffering from an injury or illness, a good balanced diet low in fats and sugar and with a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, grains and dairy products, will promote healing and good health. Keep it simple, leave out foods which don't agree with you or which you don't like, and don't pay too much attention to the various tales that are told about so-called super-foods, or about expensive supplements! If you are unwell for whatever reason you might find frequent light meals suit you better than the traditional three main meals each day. Eat only when you're hungry, and get plenty of rest when you can.
