    Attempts should be made to increase the energy and protein content of the food in
    meals and snacks without increasing its volume. So, for example, addition of oil or
    butter to chapatti or rice can increase the energy content of the diet. A person with
    TB should also be encouraged to eat pulses in other forms e.g. roasted chana.

    Oils & fats are a source of energy. In terms of oil,


    soyabean oil, mustard oil and coconut oil, are all
    acceptable. Nuts like ground nuts are good sources
    of energy and protein and can be taken as snacks
    in either fried or roasted form. Ground nuts are
    equivalent in nutritional terms to more expensive
    nuts like almonds, cashews.

    Proteins can be of animal origin like milk, eggs,


    People with TB need a variety of foods
    meat and fish or of plant origin as in cereals & from different groups
    pulses. For vegetarians, a combination of cereals &
    pulses can give a quantity of protein equivalent to that of animal proteins. The daily
    consumption of milk and milk products is also beneficial. In the case of non
    vegetarians, consumption of eggs on a daily basis can provide the same benefit as
    meat and fish at a lower cost.

    Vegetables, especially leafy vegetables and fruits are vital sources of vitamins &
    minerals and should be part of the daily diet. Locally available fruits are as good as
    more expensive fruits transported over long distances.
