Your father should follow a daily sugar-free, heart-healthy diet that includes vegetables, salads, whole grains such as oats and wholemeal bread, lean proteins like fish, chicken, and legumes, and healthy fats such as nuts and olive oil, while avoiding sugary drinks, sweets, fruit juices, and processed snacks. The next step is to discuss with his cardiologist the timing and type of CABG surgery, which is usually recommended for triple-vessel disease, along with optimisation of his medications. CABG costs in India generally range from 2 to 7 lakh rupees, depending on the hospital and city.
