Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and gone through your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

  3. Drink plenty of water.
  4. Take small and frequent meals at regular intervals of two to three hours.
  5. Avoid eating out.
  6. Include a lot of fresh fruits and green vegetables.
  1. Take two to three almonds, walnuts and dates in the morning when you get up.
  2. Take sprouts, vegetable daliya, vegetable paratha, vegetable sandwich, moong dal cheela, or besancheela with skimmed milk for breakfast.
