    Stuff that has lots of vitamin C in it. Like citrus fruits.

    Hope he feels better soon! He has influenza? Chicken soup, any soup & crackers. If it's a stomach bug, vomiting, we stick with crackers, bananas, rice, applesauce, toast.
    Hope he's feeling better soon!

    (eta: either way, while sick, I eat what comforts me, and if necessary what I feel I can keep down best; calories are not a concern in my mind while sick. Bodies need cals for all that recovery!)
