Diseases occur when our immune system is not working properly. The proper functioning of the immune system depend on the food we eat and thus when we are sick, we are advised to consume nutritious food. Bland food is food which is low on salt, sugar, oil and spices. This aids easy digestion and prevents disorders of the digestive system.
