What type of diet supports recovery from illness?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A balanced and nutritious diet
During recovery, a balanced and nutritious diet supplies energy, protein, vitamins, minerals, fluids and other nutrients needed for immune function, tissue repair and restoration of strength. The exact texture, quantity and nutrient emphasis depend on the illness and appetite. Tea or spices alone cannot meet requirements, and stopping food delays recovery.
