Hi ..

Thanks for choosing us for your health query..

Your father recovering from minor stroke.

But if you had mentioned the co morbid conditions it should have helped us to guide you more accurately.

Any way with an assumption that he has diabetes,hypertension and stroke I will guide for a healthy diet and lifestyle.

You need to calculate the calories in your father food limit his calorie intake to 1800 because is a sedentary male.
Of the calories you need to give 800 calories in morning and 500 for noon and night.

If his kidneys are fine we need not restrict on the protein give 1gm/ kg body weight..

Control his oil intake to 4 teaspoons per day because he had stroke high lipids are basic cause.Take care of hidden fat also that present in groundnut,coconut etc..


If kidneys are fine we do not need to cut his veggie intake.

If he is a diabetic and is under control you can give two portions of cut fruits 100gm each.

Hope our suggestion helps.

Take care
