The appearance of flu symptoms indicates that your body is being attacked by a virus. The body needs energy and time to fight off the virus. It is advisable for Dream friends to rest at home first. Make sure to rest and eat well while at home. Avoid doing daily routines such as shopping or doing laundry during the flu period. If you insist on daily activities, the flu may worsen and harm you.

When Dream Friend is attacked by the flu, you will experience high fever with a lot of sweat. Some may also experience vomiting and diarrhea. When these symptoms appear, your body needs additional fluids to replace the lost ones. Drink plenty of water to ensure that your body does not become dehydrated. Besides plain water, Dream Friend can also alternate with herbal tea or honey tea.

When sick, the body certainly needs nutritional intake to recover. Eat high-nutrient foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables that provide important vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to fight viruses. Appetite may decrease drastically during illness. Nevertheless, Sahabat Dream still needs to ensure regular meals for a quick recovery.

Elderberry is a berry fruit that has long been believed to treat cold and flu symptoms. To treat the flu, elderberry can be consumed in the form of capsules, lozenges, and syrup that can be purchased online. Elderberry cannot be eaten directly as it can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

To avoid the flu in the future, Sahabat Dream needs to get flu vaccinations based on their types. Usually, flu vaccinations are provided based on the season. Do not underestimate the vaccine. Sahabat Dream may think it is too late to get vaccinated. Vaccines are a long-term preventive measure against various diseases, including the flu. Report: Salma Rihhadatul Aisy / Source: Healthline.
