Hey SKC - The past month, I've gained roughly 5 pounds, part of which due to your help. When I get really sick, I don't eat much for obvious reasons like every other person.
I have a sore throat right now, plus two large ulcers on the left side of my mouth that are some of the most painful things I've ever had. I haven't been eating my norm lately.
Two part question(s) I suppose,
1. Are there any cure or ways to increase healing time to the ulcers?
2. What foods should I eat when these things happen (A sore throat + ulcers = miserable days)?
healing time for anything internal in the body requires immune system enhancement. Try megadosing with vitamin C, antioxidants, and immune supplements as well as multivitamins.
Avoid citrus and acidic foods/beverages for the ulcers...this will make them worse.
As for the foods to eat in that condition here is the best:
1. homemade chicken soup with extra chicken and soft veggies - sodium is fine for you now as the salt will help both the throat and ulcers.
2. hot tea (drink this shit all day) - you can add protein powder to it if you want to keep your protein content up.
3. pasta with olive oil (easy going down, tastes good, neutral ph level)
those 3 things are ALL you need to ride out those problems.
