I tried it and it works well. All you do is take bread and toast it until black. I think the theory behind this is that it’s like a charcoal. Spread the honey on the toast (to be honest I sometimes omit this but it DOES make the toast taste better and probablyhas lots of antioxidants and stuff in it). Eat. Sounds bad but it can really help.

What foods are good for a hurting stomach?

Q: My roommate and I are workaholics in college and have little time for anything. Even though we both have similar work loads, we have different eating and sleeping patterns. I’m pretty healthy, but my roommate has been getting sick a lot. Currently, her stomach has been hurting and she has no energy. My guess is that it’s the flu. The question here is what foods (not drinks) could she eat that are easy enough on her stomach, but can give her enough energy to get through her busy daily schedule?

A: Foods that contain milk are good for the stomach, no spices or fried foods. Try and stay away from vinegars and cheese and tomatoes and brussel sprouts. If its the flu, she could try good old fashioned chicken soup.
