The Two Fruits that Influenza A Fears the Most

Generally, there is no saying that two fruits are most feared in the case of H1N1 flu. Influenza A is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by the influenza A virus. Patients can benefit from eating more oranges and kiwifruits, as these can help promote recovery.
1. Oranges: Rich in vitamin C, oranges can enhance the activity of white blood cells, helping the body identify and eliminate foreign pathogens, including the influenza A virus. Additionally, vitamin C promotes collagen synthesis, aiding in maintaining the health of various organs and tissues.
2. Kiwifruit: Containing abundant vitamin C and fiber, kiwifruit helps boost immunity and alleviate muscle pain and fatigue caused by influenza A. The sweet and tart flavor of kiwifruit can also stimulate appetite, providing the body with additional energy.
However, it should be noted that although these two fruits offer certain benefits to individuals with H1N1 flu, they cannot replace standard medical treatment. During infection with H1N1 flu, patients should follow their doctor's advice, take prescribed medications on time, rest adequately, and maintain good respiratory hygiene. Additionally, excessive fruit consumption should be avoided to prevent additional strain on the gastrointestinal system.
