Hello. He should be given wholesome diet regularly having good nutritive value. You can give chavanprash 2tsp daily with abhraka bhasma 125mg. This improves his overall health.

Hello there.... I can understand your concern..... He should Eat - Eggs, lean meat, fish, pulses, sprouts, and dairy products that rich sources of proteins. Fish such as tuna and mackerel are rich in oil and are one of the best .....Consumption of rich protein food are recommended for TB... Avoid irritating foods. Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty....
