The diet is most important for someone with cholera. The infected person should avoid solid food and uncooked vegetables Liquid bland foods will be easily digested by the patient. Lemon, onions, vinegar, and mint should be included in the daily diet during an epidemic of cholera. Also, cholera can be controlled only by purification of water supply and proper disposal of excrement. If there is the slightest doubt about watercontamination, it must be boiled before use for drinking and cooking purposes. All foodstuffs must be kept covered, and vegetables and fruits washed with a solution of potassium permanganate before consumption. Those handling food should wash their hands well before starting to cook. If there are lots of people in your house, you may want to reduce the numbers, or isolate yourself, that way the disease won't spread - it will just be you who has it.
