fruit remedy
in an effort to combat the evil viruses inside my body, this is what i've been having for lunch the past 3 days:
one slice of honeydew, two slices of watermelon, and one cup of orange (or starfruit) juice
i've been asking the aunties and uncles of the fruit stalls downstairs what are the fruit remedies for flus and fevers, but they've all got different opinions:
"must eat watermelon to cool yourself down!" says the auntie with a lot of watermelon slices left in her fridge.
"take starfuit juice with salt!" says the uncle with sweat dripping down his nose.
"don't know leh..." says another uncle truthfully.
hmmm. ok...i guess i just took bits and pieces of what they said and combined it all together. but does anyone know for sure what fruits are good / bad for flus and fevers? let me know before i start /continue feeding on the wrong stuff.
btw, this fruit diet has done wonders to my tummy also. it's only been 3 days but i feel like i've done 150 situps already! or maybe that's cuz of my coughing...hehe.
cheers. =)

lots of fluids and rest. don't go to crowded places. eat lots of soupy stuff. cover yourself when u sleep so as not to get the chill. dont go to bed w wet hair.
the auntie is clearly wrong...
According to SteveStove:
there was this dude in Malacca that went to sleep hugging a watermelon and woke up with a sorethroat...
i remember that story... but his fever was cured when he woke up right?
Boost juice. 1 cup $6, at vivocity.
star fruit/juice is supposedly good for sore throat.
but when one is sick, one needs to eat to have energy to fight the viruses in the body.
grapefruit juice... drink hot soup...
cough + orange = more cough!
