RE: Having a Cold or Flu? What to Eat When You're Sick? 🤒
Love this post! I, too, remember being sick as a kid as a fun experience. It sure has changed! Well for me it has, my husband, on the other hand, gets treated just like a kid staying home from school. 🤷🏼♀️
You’re so right, garlic, lemon, even honey have helped me recover from some pretty gnarley flu’s. Being sick sucks but taking care of ourselves never does. Great post @jasmink 👏👏👏.
You're husband is a very lucky person, thanks to you, I hope he knows it! 😉
This was so well said, I couldn't agree more! This made me think about how we should always take care of ourselves, and I'm not talking only about flus and colds. Often people wake up to the fact they haven't taken care of their bodies and minds too late. Nowadays the focus is in the wrong place, instead of putting all the time, effort and money into curing diseases (of course this should be done too), prevention should be the main focus!
Thank you, @puravidaville! :)
He calls himself “the luckiest guy I know”. Haha… thank you @jasmink.
In today’s world ‘taking care of yoirself’ Is different for many people. We have created a culture of normalizing constant pollution of our bodies. Most ‘food’ in grocery stores contain all sorts or hidden chemicals that wreak havoc on our poor bodies, every little store on the corner sells us alcohol that tears our gut up, even the coffee shops pushing their rendition of a pumpkin spice latte has a huge impact on our neurological and digestive system. These things go un scrutinized because it’s all become so normal. You have a stomach ache, take a tums, you have a sore throat, take a DayQuil - we are ruining our bodies but because we ‘go to the gym 5 days a week and eat an all protein diet’ we think we are the epitome of health.
Hahaha
Sorry about the tangent- it’s just so important for all of us to get back to what “healthy” is in every form, mind, body and soul. I’ll get off you page now :)
No need to say your sorry, it's only interesting to hear your opinions! It's so weird to see how abnormal things become normal in our society only because they're more common. For example nowadays it seems to be normal to take medication to lower cholesterol, even if it tells your body isn't in optimal condition. People are often more interested in treating the symptoms than the actual cause of them. At least I would like to discuss about the things causing my symptoms and try to make my body heal instead of only take some medications to get rid of the symptoms!
I was supposed to quickly answer to your comment, but it seems like this a bit emotive subject for me too, haha.
Haha… we all should be more emotive about our health. Love the energy you put out @jasmink- always nice chatting with you :)
Likewise! :)
