There are diseases that make it necessary to change the diet and lifestyle even those who were previously sure that they would not do it. Infarction is one of such diseases, because a person risks life: because of an attack, necrosis of such an important part of the heart muscle as the myocardium, which can lead to the most unpleasant consequences for the entire cardiovascular system. Nutrition after myocardial infarction should be thought through to the smallest detail, because it depends on your life.
Acute myocardial infarction: a diet
It is important to understand that for maximum therapeutic effect, nutrition with myocardial infarction needs to be corrected not once, but immediately after an attack. At this time, as a rule, the patient is under the supervision of a doctor who can give recommendations when considering other chronic human diseases.
A fractional diet is prescribed 5-7 times a day if small portions are observed - only 200-300 grams. Such a diet for myocardial infarction can include:

- low-fat dairy products;
- liquid, strongly boiled and wiped porridge;
- vegetable soups, broths.
In such a period, in no case should you eat salt and foods in which it is contained.
Diet after extensive heart attack: the period of scarring
As a rule, after about a month and a half, the transition to a more varied diet is prescribed with a large heart attack. You need to observe the balance - 60% carbohydrates, 30% - protein and 10% fat. If this condition is met, you can eat anything and even foods containing salt, but with a restriction of 5-7 grams of salt per day.
