when can i feel better if started back drinking fluids with caffeine in it? cause  while i was sick i was drinking sprite for several weeks.

Accepted Answer

Cycle of illness: You will feel better when the illness is gone.
Drinking fluids with caffeine will not accelerate the process.

There is no agreement on the type of fluids to take--can vary from chicken noodle soup, chicken broth, water, sports drinks, soda, or just water.

If you have been without caffeine for several weeks, this is no longer withdrawal symptoms, and the caffeine fluids should be insignificant.
