Special Advise

 

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Undernutrition weakens the body's ability to fight tuberculosis and may also worsen the disease. Therefore, patients with tuberculosis should aim for a healthy balanced diet by consuming basic foods like cereals, millets, pulses, vegetables and fruits, milk products, meat, eggs and fish.
  • Vegetables, especially green leafy vegetables and fruits are rich in antioxidants and minerals, so they should be a part of a daily diet. 
  • TB is a contagious disease, so the patient should be extra careful while contacting other people during the infection.
  • The Health and hygiene of children with TB should be maintained.
