ChosenOne2000 4440 Posted November 4, 2009 Rice is usually okay to tolerate when your sick, its plain and it has the water in it.It takes more water and energy to digest rice than what it provides. Its a negative calorie food. Don't do it please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B'laz.e 10 Posted November 4, 2009 It takes more water and energy to digest rice than what it provides. Its a negative calorie food. Don't do it please.Although it might be true, which i honestly wouldn't know. Wouldn't it be better to have some sort of food no matter what in you rather than just sitting there on an empty stomach? I mean i understand what your saying, but its more logical than to not eat at all.Whatever I eat or drink, I throw up. Thanks though everyone :/Remember though, although throwing up is no fun, its easier top throw up something, then sit there dry heaving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noire 17 Posted November 4, 2009 saltine crackers! they help absorb the acid in your stomach and makes you less nausious. 375 might not be that many, I remember when I went to high school we had more than 5000 kids and each year there was always more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus, he needs to replenish 1/3 of the fluids he's losing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B'laz.e 10 Posted November 4, 2009 X1's suck mah balls.Get the X-52s. Be a pro. Like me.As much as i love quoting other threads that im not in, i dont.I was trying to quote you Chosen. So you'd recommend chewable vitamins over actual food? I mean i can see as they would be helpful but the actual food is also used as something to come out of you, I must say The order of things to throw up i would pick having food in me, no matter how much it sucks Its better than forcing out pure liquid, or nothing.

If he has been vomiting and having diarrhea, then you address the dehydration issue first.saltine crackers! they help absorb the acid in your stomach and makes you less nausious. Old wives tale, but partially correct.....The crackers would actually encourage the production of more stomach acid. After he stops vomiting THEN give him crackers. The simple sugars will give him some energy and the salt will help keep him hydrated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChosenOne2000 4440 Posted November 4, 2009 Correct me if im wrong but, doesn't the salt only help in small amounts?Hydrate first.....Yes, but what are you comparing it to? A single can of soup provides over 1/3 of your daily sodium requirements. A few crackers don’t have that much salt in comparison. So by "small amounts", yes it does help.

Howard Dean 2502 Posted November 4, 2009 Yea but arent you puking up salts in your body so wouldnt a requirement of more salt be necessary? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChosenOne2000 4440 Posted November 4, 2009 Yea but arent you puking up salts in your body so wouldnt a requirement of more salt be necessary?Yes, but you guys are putting the cart before the horse.....1. Replace fluid and nutrients (Water and chewable vitamins)2. Once vomiting ceases, administer soup/crackers (energy and electrolytes)3. Protein to minimize further tissue damage and boost immune system Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Formerly known as Karma 0 Posted November 4, 2009 I haven't yet had it. My grandmother did but I saw her a couple weeks after she was completely better again. Apparently the swine flu is hitting harder with people in our age range and pregnant women. 22 seems to be the lucky number. I don't feel so great about turning 22 now lol.
