A member asked:
Please describe a good 7 day diet plan for a heart surgery patient?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Depends on the reason for the heart surgery, your weight, and general health. In general, a well balanced diet that is heavy in fruit and vegetables, substituting monounsaturated oils for other fats, and light on salt is considered to be an excellent heart healthy diet for everyone.
