Prepare the food well and stay well hydrated. If you have canned fruit or vegetables, add a serving to your meal. Avoid excessive carbohydrates. Ask a neighbor to buy fresh produce if they are able to do so. Avoid excessive salt by rinsing canned vegetables before use. Watch for excessive thirst and please follow up with your physician.
