Hi everyone, my father had stroke 11 days ago affected his right arm and leg. Doctor said it was minor and he will recover soon inshAllah. He is patient of high bp and cholesterol need some suggestions about what food can we give him
Currently we are giving him oats and porridge with skimmed milk and fruits, bread, tea no salt at all. He is getting irritated as he is not liking food and feeling really weak. From last 2 days his bp is low he is on high bp medicine need advise if we can give him little salt if yes then how much? And what else he can have?

Thank you.
it's better to book appointment for complete guidance and diet plan because eating after stroke involves alot of consideration.
your patient will get irritated when you force him to follow all limitations at once. The food items that u r giving are good. but u lack diversity of food items so your patient try to eat some salty to change his flavour. u have to restrict just fatty foods, salty and processed foods. all other nutrients must be fulfiled. Try more varieties of food to change flavour again and again.
It will be more better if u get a complete dietary guidlines or diet plan.
You need to have detailed consultation regarding his diet. If shortly , i would say avoid any kind of processed food, fried items and bakery items. But yi also need to include those food items through which his calories can be completed and ultimately no weight loss will take place. I would suggest you take an appointment through Marham, or contact me through zoyasiddiqui158@gmail.com.
