Hello, I am 19 years old. I am suffering from chikungunya but I want to eat non-veg as it has been more than a week now. Can I eat non-vegetarian food while suffering from chikungunya? What should I do?

@oas Hello, Doctors always advise chikungunya patients to go easy on non-vegetarian food items. As they increase the load on the liver. Hence, including plenty of vegetables and fruits in the diet is a good idea. It is better to keep in mind what not to eat in chikungunya, as consumption of those food items may do more harm than good. Better to be safe than sorry. Avoid oil and spices, and include leafy veggies, herbal tea, soups, and coconut water in your diet.
