Invalid Cookery (HE proper feeding)

HE proper feeding of an invalid plays an inestimable part in his recovery. The general rules to remember are: Give only food that is easily digested, served as temptingly as possible. When the temperature is high, water and liquid food should be given freely to repair the rapid waste caused by fever. As the fever abates, semi-solid foods may be used; and as convalescence advances, soft foods such as eggs, toast, and simple puddings.
