Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Typhoid fever is caused by salmonella bacteria (four type strains). This is an intestinal disease.
As you mentioned that your husband recovered from typhoid, so need not to worry.
He can start with curd and eggs but in limit (because this is an intestine disease, that's why advised light food).
Once the patient is cured he can start normal food. From day 1, gradually patient can take heavy diet. At least for medical purposes avoid heavy food for 4-8 weeks time.
Good luck!
Regards,
Dr. Het Ram Bishnoi
