Vitamin C might help
Vitamin C won’t magically cure your flu. However, it can help strengthen the immune system, which means it can help quicken the recovery time from a flu. Just be sure to avoid taking too much vitamin C, especially if you already eat a lot of fruits as part of your diet.
The reason behind this is that your body will just flush out any excess vitamin C that you take. This means that if you take too much vitamin C, you might just be wasting your money. The same goes for other vitamins as well.
Chicken soup
You’ll be surprised to find out that chicken soup is actually very effective in managing the symptoms of flu. Chicken soup, and soups in general, help keep you hydrated, keep you warm, and overall just makes you feel better.
Even if it doesn’t cure the flu, drinking some soup makes the symptoms more bearable1.
