What is best to eat for a blood infection?

You need to eat a healthy diet when fighting any infection. This would include a well rounded mixture of fruits and vegetables and lean proteins for the vitamins and minerals. Limiting fats in the diet also can help.

However, blood infections are very serious and can even be deadly, so you should consult a physician immediately, if you have not, because antibiotics are always needed if you have septicemia (blood infection). This is much more important than what to eat.

Fevers can be very high with blood infections, so keep yourself hydrated. Often this requires IV fluids to provide enough liquids while fighting such a serious and systemic infection. If you are already under a doctor's treatment for this condition, then follow the doctor's instructions for diet and how much fluids you will need.
