Question: How do I build my appetite.?
I usually have a good appetite around meal times, but I have "walking pneumonia" now and no appetite. I need to eat to keep my strength up. Is there any tricks, tips, or medications that help with this.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Go for soup that's pretty watery so you get that hydration that your body is really craving at this point (pneumonia dehydrates you severely and can cause dizziness) but has some meat or chunky veggies in it. Something like chicken and rice it great, then add in chunks of celery or carrots or even just peas and corn that are frozen in your freezer. That was it will be easier to eat. And eat in small quantities but more frequently. Spread your bowl of soup over 3 hours so your stomach never gets too full to become nauseous.Health Question & Answer
smoke pot. as someone has already mentioned.

yes i know, marijuana increases the appetite, but you have pneumonia, i'm sure that could make it worse or burn your chest. We use to make ensure shakes for our patients that really needed the calories. The shakes are made with ensure and ice cream, and don't taste bad. But if you are feeling better and not coughing up a lung, the answer would be smoke some "pot" LOLHealth Question & Answer
