Hi, as your father is an elderly person with neurological issues also suffered from dengue he needs lot of psychological ( support from family members) and physiological support.
He needs lot complex carbohydrates(whole foods, fruits, vegetables) and quality proteins ( milk, curd, whole pulses,if you are a non vegetarian- eggs, fish) with sufficient fluids in his diet.
It is difficult to advice without seeing a patient so, please book an appointment with Practo or call me directly.

Hello,
Greetings from Dietitian Souvik Chakraborty,
I can understand your concern about healthy diet, for getting excellent results in diet plan, you need to follow some golden rule of healthy diet, like taking meal in regular intervals, taking water in interval, doing exercises in fixed pattern & post /pre exercise home made food must be added, which is lacking in your present diet, and sleep patterns or duration have huge effect on long term results. If you want to modify your diet on irriversible manner, you need to follow some diet protocol, & you will enjoy doing this & love to follow the same.
I will love to help you for the same, you can directly contact me for understanding your detailed requirement.
Thanks & regards,
Dietitian Souvik Chakraborty
