The doctor told us about what helps the body recover after an infection.

The doctor said in an interview that after an illness, the body needs to be given the opportunity to replenish its strength, regain its former energy and tone – during this period, significant loads should be avoided. The doctor emphasized that returning to the previous lifestyle should be gradual, and that “simple steps” contribute to this.

“In the first week after the runny nose, cough, and fever disappear, you need to listen to your well-being and strive to lead a healthy lifestyle,” the specialist said.

The doctor clarified that ARVI due to inflammation can provoke loss of appetite. In order not to overload the digestive system, you should make the diet lighter, exclude flour, fatty, spicy foods from it.

“You should add lean fish, lean meat, vegetables and fruits, whole grain cereals, and fermented milk products to the diet,” the doctor advised.

She added that after ARVI, particles that cause intoxication during the acute period of the disease may remain in the body for some time. Until they are completely eliminated, you may feel tired and fatigued. To restore the body for at least a week after an acute respiratory viral infection, you need to live a gentle lifestyle, give yourself plenty of rest and time to sleep.
