When my husband was in the hospial for by-pass surgery we had the same problem
with their food. It made him terribly sick and he wouldn't eat the week he was
in the hospital. He was loosing weight and getting weak. Once home he ate
like a pig and no I didn't use their diet. He got lots of good veggies from
the garden and real meat (chicken, beef, & pork), nothing synthetic. I'm not
happy about the meds they have him on but I can't decide that for him. He will
have to decide what he wants to take. I can only tell him about what I've read.
Hospital food will kill you!
