Asked by Male, 50 · 2 months ago
After a heart attack, diet is very important for recovery and preventing another event. Eat fruits, vegetables, whole grains, oats, brown rice, pulses, and include healthy oils like olive or mustard oil. Drink enough water and eat small, regular meals. Avoid or limit fried and oily foods, bakery items, fast food, red meat, excess salt, sugar, ghee, butter, cream, and packaged foods. Avoid smoking and alcohol. Follow your cardiologist's diet plan closely, especially if you are on blood thinners or heart medicines.
