How to help your body recover from an illness:

Drink more mineral water
To restore the water balance in tissues, a person needs water. But not just any water, but enriched water. Ideally, enriched with magnesium and mineral salts.

Cook protein meals.
White blood cells, the main defenders of our immune system, are made up of proteins. The best and easiest way is to incorporate meals rich in quality protein into your menu. Quality farm meats, fish, and eggs are high in protein and essential micronutrients like iron.

Make up for vitamin gaps.
Iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, B vitamins and vitamin D are all elements that start to be dramatically lacking if you've recently been sick.

Take care of your microbiota.
Eat fermented foods. These include kefir, farm cheese, sauerkraut, pickles and tomatoes. These contain prebiotics and probiotics, which enrich the gut microflora and benefit all stages of digestion.
