Tuberculosis is a systemic and chronic consumptive infectious disease, which needs a long treatment process, so it also needs a diet therapy that is less greasy, easy to digest, good in color and smell and can stimulate appetite.

1. Tuberculosis patients need to be given enough calories to supplement their body consumption.

2. The quality of protein ingested by pulmonary tuberculosis patients is improving, so it is necessary to supplement enough animal protein or plant protein. Such as milk, meat, eggs and bean products.

3. Vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins should be given to increase disease resistance, such as Chinese cabbage, rape and carrots.

4. Foods rich in calcium should be selected to promote calcification of lesions, such as milk, tofu, shrimp skin and spinach. Patients with hemoptysis should eat more iron-rich foods, supplement hematopoietic substances, and prevent anemia, such as animal viscera and various beans.
