Hi guys, I am on day 7, and have been 100%, but have now come down with a draining cold and sore throat. Does anyone know what medicines, or even throat sweets i could take if any and stay in ketosis.

Does anyone eat small amounts of food when they are not well, or just keep on ss?

Thanks for your help. I am just so in the zone, which is not like me and am scared if i fall out of ketosis, my willpower wont get me bag in xx
 
paracetamol is kinda it hun. lemsips are out as a couple of us have found

depends on how bad your cold is hun. i currently have a cold and sore throat and am sticking to ss and paracetamol but beginning of winter i had a bad one and did ss+ and took decongestants to see me through
 
oh and i made my own lemsip alternative by putting some water flavoring in a cup of warm water and adding disolvable paracetamol
 
If you are bunged up use some Vicks or put some Olbas oil on your clothes as these help open up the airways without sticking anything in your mouth.
 
for bunged up i use sudafed nasal spray, clears ya nose in minutes and asts 10 hours, i use it alot on a very regular basis ( my doctor knows i do this ) as my nose is blocked most nights and it doesnt effect my cding at all
 
Hi tracey

I came down with a cold on day 3 of my restart, managed to shake it off with paracetamol caplets, plenty of fluids and rest. Stayed at home so I wasn't exposed to freezing weather - not feasible for everyone I know.
Didn't eat any extra but I do have 4 foodpacks a day. Got rid of cold within 3 to 4 days but felt rough.
Hope you are better soon x
